Hi, I'm Rajesh, a Top Rated Plus AI SEO Expert and Senior SEO Specialist with 14+ years of hands-on experience helping businesses achieve sustainable, measurable growth across Google and AI-powered search platforms. On Upwork, I have successfully delivered: 104+ completed projects and 31,000+ total work hours, demonstrating long-term client trust, consistent performance, and measurable SEO results. A RECENT WORK SAMPLE: For one B2B local brand in the commercial cleaning category, I built an AI SEO + Local SEO-first search growth system from the ground up. Six months later: • 31,400 organic clicks generated • 1.75M impressions on Google Search • 4.6% average CTR (vs. 1.9% category baseline) • #1 position in Google Map Pack rankings • #1 rankings for 16+ keywords & outranked 7 top local competitors • Average position: 14.6 from a cold start • Brand began appearing in Google AI Overviews and receiving citations from ChatGPT and Perplexity by month 4 That is what AI SEO done right looks like. No tricks. No volume play. Just an engineered visibility system built across every search surface that matters.

Without a strong Technical SEO foundation, neither AI Overviews optimization nor Local SEO strategies can perform consistently at scale. My Technical SEO expertise includes: • Full Technical SEO audits (crawlability, indexation, architecture) • Log-based crawl analysis • Core Web Vitals optimization (LCP, CLS, INP improvements) • Schema markup implementation (FAQ, LocalBusiness, Organization, Product, Service, Article) • Structured data validation for AI SEO and AEO • Canonicalization strategy and duplicate content resolution • Redirect mapping (301 / 302 / 404 fixes) • Internal linking architecture engineering • XML sitemap and robots.txt optimization • JavaScript SEO analysis • International SEO (hreflang implementation) • Thin content & index bloat cleanup • AI Overviews readiness optimization I structure websites to improve: • Crawl efficiency • Indexation clarity • Entity recognition • Semantic relationships • AI-readable content structure My Technical SEO work ensures that your website is optimized not only for Google’s crawlers, but also for AI systems interpreting structured data, entities, and contextual meaning. Technical SEO + AI SEO + Schema = Long-term visibility stability. LOCAL SEO & GOOGLE BUSINESS PROFILE OPTIMIZATION Local SEO requires more than keywords. It requires structured entity authority, geographic relevance, and strong local signals. My Local SEO strategy integrates: • Advanced Local SEO audits • Google Business Profile optimization • Local entity reinforcement • Service-area page architecture • GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) for local markets • NAP consistency & citation management • Local Schema implementation • Review acquisition strategy • Google 3-Pack ranking optimization • Location-based internal linking • City & service intent mapping • Multi-location SEO frameworks You can also book a consultation directly on Upwork I will go through your current SEO and AI search visibility and show you where the real opportunities are.
