SEO & AI-Search (GEO/AEO) Expert | Technical SEO + Content

I help brands get found in Google today and cited by AI tomorrow. I'm a Top Rated Plus SEO specialist with $100K+ earned on Upwork and a track record of turning search into a client's number-one growth channel. Most SEO is either technical work nobody can read, or content nobody can find. I do both, and I add the layer almost no one is doing yet: AI-search optimization (GEO and AEO), so your brand shows up inside ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, in addition to Google Search . A few results: -Grew a startup's organic traffic 430% and made search its number-one acquisition channel. -Turned organic into the number-one revenue channel for a national ecommerce store, ahead of paid and direct, on $1M+ in tracked revenue. -Built the technical and structured-data foundations (schema, llms.txt, answer-first content) that get brands quoted by AI assistants. What I do, end to end: -Technical SEO: audits, crawlability, Core Web Vitals, indexation, schema -On-page and content built around real buyer intent -AI-search (GEO/AEO): structured, quotable content that AI engines cite -Shopify and ecommerce SEO -Local and international SEO -Measurement you can trust: GA4, Search Console, clean attribution I work mostly with tech and SaaS, ecommerce, and music and creative brands, and I'm equally happy owning the strategy or rolling up my sleeves on the fixes. Clients tend to say the same things: clear communicator, reliable, and finally makes SEO make sense. If you want to grow without relying solely on PPC and paid ads, send me a message and tell me what you're trying to grow.
