SEO, AEO & GEO Specialist | AI Search Visibility & Technical SEO

Companies with a real site, real revenue, and a reason to care about organic — SaaS, B2B services, healthcare, ecommerce, professional services. I've worked across verticals, and the technical and entity work transfers; what changes is the keyword research and the buyer intent behind it. Most SEO are still optimizing for ten blue links. The traffic has moved. A third of your buyers now get their answer inside an AI response and never click. That means two jobs running in parallel: keep ranking in classic search, and become the source the models quote. WHAT I DO — Technical SEO & crawl efficiency. A crawl-budget automation, so log-file analysis, index bloat, crawl waste, render issues and bot access are my daily work, not a checklist item. This includes AI crawler access: llms.txt, GPTBot/ClaudeBot/PerplexityBot policy, and making sure the crawlers that feed the models can actually reach your content. — AEO / GEO. Conversational and question-intent keyword research, answer-ready page restructuring, concise extractable summaries, FAQ/HowTo/Article/Product schema, entity and topical authority mapping, E-E-A-T signals. Then citation tracking across AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude so you can see share of voice, not guess at it. — Programmatic & content SEO at scale. Keyword clustering into topic maps, template architecture for hundreds of pages, internal linking that actually distributes authority, and content briefs your writers can execute without supervision. — Measurement. GSC + GA4 + AI referral tracking, baseline vs. delta, monthly reporting against pipeline — not just rankings. HOW I WORK Week 1 is diagnosis: full technical crawl, AI visibility baseline, citation gap analysis against your three closest competitors. You get a prioritized roadmap split into quick wins and structural work, with effort and expected impact on each line. Nothing gets implemented before you've approved the sequence. I run a delivery team, so implementation doesn't bottleneck on my calendar — but strategy, technical diagnosis and reporting stay with me. You always know which is which. BEST FIT B2B SaaS, AI products, and service businesses with a real site and a real budget who want organic to be a pipeline channel, not a vanity dashboard. I take on a limited number of retainers so each one gets senior attention. FIRST STEP Message me with your domain and your single biggest organic frustration. I'll reply with two or three specific things I can already see wrong — before you spend anything. If your SaaS is live but customer acquisition still feels unpredictable, send me your product and tell me where sales currently getting stuck.
