I help businesses grow their organic traffic and increase revenue through strategic SEO, content, and outreach.

Highlights:

  • -260% Traffic Growth for a Mortgage Broker:

Created and implemented a full-funnel SEO strategy, including a technical audit, Core Web Vitals, authority-building through HARO-style services, and a conversion-focused content plan targeting commercial keywords.

  • Improved Sales for a Supplements Brand in a Competitive Niche:

Helped a small e-commerce site grow non-brand clicks by 25% and drive 11% of total sales from SEO by focusing on top-of-funnel content and building authority through E-E-A-T and niche link building, despite a limited budget.

  • 88% Traffic Growth for a Game Design Academy:

Developed a content and outreach strategy for ARC Academy to build topical authority and increase brand awareness, resulting in 88% YoY growth in nonbrand clicks within 6 months.

  • 70+ Backlinks for High-Competition Review Brands:

Ran advanced outreach and PR campaigns for content brands in the VPN and coffee niches. Negotiated an average of 45% off paid placements and landed nearly half of the links for free.
