Faraz S.

I can get your business into the top 3 in GMB and AI overviews where the phone calls leads actually come from. I am Faraz, a Local SEO Expert who turns that top 3 visibility into booked jobs, calls and qualified leads. Top Rated Plus, over $600K earned on Upwork, 231 reviews, 99% Job Success, 11 years in SEO, and more than 450 businesses helped. I also do the Technical SEO work most local SEO freelancers skip. A story I hear every week: a business owner does better work than the company across town, and they still get three times his calls. His competitor is in the Map Pack. He is on page two, where nobody looks. Do the maths. What is one job worth to you? Multiply it by the calls you did not get this month. That is what invisible costs, and it compounds, because every job your competitor wins becomes another review and another reason Google ranks them above you. Waiting is falling behind at interest. Your next customer may not open Google. They ask ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews or Perplexity who to call, and the AI names one business. If it is not yours, you are not in the conversation. In almost every site I audit, the gap is not talent and it is not budget. It is a handful of fixable faults nobody showed the owner, quietly deciding who gets the work. Fixing that is my job. I hold an MBA, though results matter more than letters. I call my method Foundation First. Step one, the Local SEO Audit and Technical SEO Audit. I go through your website page by page, check indexing and crawl issues, and read your Google Business Profile the way a customer would. You get the faults in plain English, in the order we fix them, with a short video walkthrough. No long report written to impress you. Step two, the Technical SEO fix. Pages Google never indexed. Slow pages and Core Web Vitals faults. Duplicate content. Broken redirects. Missing Schema Markup. This is the work AI cannot do for you. ChatGPT can list SEO tips in ten seconds. It cannot log into your site and repair it, clean up citations, reinstate a suspended listing, or answer for your numbers when calls fall. Tools give advice. I do the work, and I stand behind the result. Step three, Google Business Profile Optimization and Google Maps ranking, because that is where the phone calls live. GBP optimization, Map Pack ranking, categories, services, review strategy, citation building, NAP consistency, local keyword research, and service area pages and location pages built for the towns you actually serve. I track movement with geo grid tracking. Every piece is aimed at one outcome: your phone ringing more often. Step four, real authority. Link Building and Off Page SEO from real websites in your trade, earned through outreach and digital PR. No link packages. Step five, AI SEO, GEO and AEO. I work on the signals that decide whose name the AI gives: Generative Engine Optimization and Answer Engine Optimization for ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and local search, built on accurate business information, reviews and citations. If you have been burned by SEO before, I understand, because half my clients have. A monthly PDF, a lot of jargon, and nothing changed. That is why I start with the audit and nothing else. You see the faults and what closing the gap is worth before you commit to ongoing work. The audit is yours either way. Who I work with: local service businesses in the USA, UK, Canada and Australia who want local lead generation, not just rankings. Mostly home services, so HVAC, plumbing, roofing, contractors and auto repair. Also dental and medical clinics, and law firms. Agencies: I provide White Label Local SEO for a few agencies. Your clients never hear my name. Shopify SEO lives in my Project Catalog, a side offer. Working with me, you get a clear plan before we start, an update every week, and monthly Local SEO management reported on three numbers only: rankings, calls, leads. I report from BrightLocal, Local Falcon, Ahrefs, SEMrush and Google Search Console. I take on a small number of clients so the work stays mine, not handed to juniors, and I reply within a few hours on business days. Send me your website, your city, and the one service you most want calls for. Before we get on a call, I will look at your site, your Maps listing and your AI visibility, and show you the gap. That look costs you nothing but a message. Staying invisible costs more. Faraz PS: Do the test now. Ask ChatGPT to recommend a business like yours in your city. If your name is not in the answer, that is the first thing we fix.
