SEO Service for Small & Mid-Size Businesses
There’s no such thing as “AI SEO.” There’s SEO done well, and SEO done lazily. I do the first kind: I optimize for your customer and let the rankings follow. No keyword rabbit holes, no jargon reports, no lock-in.

Does this sound familiar?
I’ve paid for SEO before and saw no real results
My competitors show up in search and I don’t
I get reports full of numbers but don’t understand what’s actually being done
I want to be involved in the strategy, not stuck managing the technical work
What that actually means today
Every few years someone declares SEO dead. Now it’s AI’s turn. The truth? SEO still works, and always will, as long as people search.
What changed is the focus. For a decade, experts optimized for the algorithm and forgot the customer. AI flipped that.
Optimize for the customer, and you auto-optimize for AI.
Show up when your customers search, in Google and in AI answers
Pull in qualified leads, not quick-answer traffic that leaves forever
Earn trust the moment they land, so they reach out

One client, a business directory, needed more of their pages indexed by Google and had been struggling to get there for a long time. They were stuck at around 300,000 indexed pages.
The fix was counterintuitive. Instead of pushing for more, we deindexed aggressively, clearing out the thin pages dragging the whole site down. Once Google trusted the site again, it started indexing the pages that actually mattered.
From 300,000 to 2,000,000 indexed pages.
Less, done right, became more.
How it works
A clear, structured process from day one. No guesswork.
1
Audit first
Before anything else, I analyze your entire search presence and show you exactly what's holding your rankings back and what's possible. You pay for the audit and own the findings, whether or not we continue.
2
A strategy you fully buy into
You get a clear SEO plan with a defined list of deliverables and pricing. Nothing gets done, and nothing gets charged, until you're 100% on board. There's no behind-the-scenes work. It's the only way I work, and the only clients I take on are ones who are completely on the same page.
3
Execution, then one clear report a month
I implement the plan, then send a single-page monthly report: no jargon, readable in 100 seconds, showing exactly what was done and what's next.
Simple, transparent pricing
Two steps, no surprises. You pay for an audit, then for the work you've approved. Nothing happens behind the scenes, and nothing is charged without a defined list of deliverables.
The Audit
$750
one-time
A complete, visual picture of where you stand. No spreadsheets only one person can read. I work on a whiteboard, mapping out everything: your website, technical health, rankings, content, the opportunities you're missing, and a starting strategy, the best plan forward.
The result is something your whole team can look at, discuss, and act on. If you decide not to continue with me, the audit is still yours to keep, clear enough to build your own strategy from.
Monthly Work
from $1250
/mo
No fixed package. Each month I scope the work around your top needle-movers, across four areas:
Technical — issues, schema, site health
Content — landing pages and articles that win users
User experience — layouts and how people move through your site
Analytics — the data that shows what's working
And I don't work in isolation. Working closely with you or your subject matter expert is how I produce content that actually connects. Always tied to deliverables you've approved, with a single-page report each month.
Who you'll be working with
This is hands-on, concierge-level work, which means the person you talk to is the person doing the work. No account managers, no junior staff, no handoffs.
My background is in Six Sigma, a discipline built on removing guesswork and improving processes with evidence, not opinion. I bring that same rigor to your SEO: every recommendation is backed by a reason, every result is measured, and nothing happens without your sign-off.
I've helped 25+ businesses get found and chosen online. I keep my client list small on purpose, because the only way I work is with people who are fully on board with the strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions
When will I see results?
It depends on what kind of result you’re measuring. The first month is analysis and strategy: I audit your website and your wider online presence and define the best plan forward. From the second month, delivery begins, and some results are immediate. Fixed technical issues, for example, are trackable right away with no waiting period.
Ranking changes take longer. That clock starts with the first published content: you’ll typically see early movement in Google Search Console (impression share) first, with rankings often beginning to improve around the end of month two or three. The exact timeline depends on the size of your business and how competitive your market is.
What exactly do I get for the money, and are there any hidden costs?
No hidden costs. I don’t do any work without your buy-in on the strategy first. You’ll always know exactly what’s being done, what’s next, and what to expect in terms of results. Full transparency, and no empty promises. If you want to understand how SEO pricing works in general, I break it down here: How Much Does SEO Cost for a Business?
Am I locked into a long-term contract?
No. You can cancel any time, and there’s no locked-in work. What I ask for instead is a complete buy-in on the strategy. That alignment is all the commitment I need, which is why I don’t rely on lock-in contract periods.
Do you guarantee first-page rankings?
No. No contractor should guarantee first-page rankings, because it isn’t a deal you can negotiate. It depends on market conditions, your content efforts, and your overall marketing budget. Infinite effort equals a #1 ranking, but let’s be honest, nobody has an infinite budget for infinite effort. There are always constraints. What I can tell you is this: when market conditions allow, you can rank #1 on an accessible budget. That’s exactly what happened with one of my clients, a golf cart rental business. We went from zero to #1 on a standard SEO budget.
Is SEO even worth it now that AI answers everything?
Yes, and it isn’t going anywhere. AI didn’t kill SEO, it just shifted the focus back to the user, which is where it always should have been. You may see some informational traffic drop as AI answers quick questions, and that’s fine, because those visitors were never your buyers. The people with real buying intent still land on your site and scroll through it looking for a reason to trust you. Keep delivering genuine value and you’ll be fine. I wrote a full breakdown here: Does SEO Still Work With AI?
Do you do link building?
No, link building isn’t part of my scope. I spend my time where the real value is: technical health, content, user experience, and the data that tells us what’s working.
