5-star review · Google My Business optimization
SEO is a long-term play, but typically you will start seeing movement within 60 to 90 days. Meaningful growth in traffic and leads usually lands between 4 and 6 months.
While I specialize in WordPress, my technical SEO strategies apply to all major platforms. The goal stays the same: more traffic and more customers.
A comprehensive deep-dive into your site’s health, including keyword gap analysis, technical crawl issues, competitor benchmarking, and a prioritized action plan.
Absolutely. With Search Generative Experience rising, your content needs to be structured so AI engines can find, trust, and cite your business.
A freelance SEO expert improves your visibility in search engines and AI tools through technical fixes, keyword strategy, content, and link building, handling your project personally from start to finish.
Pricing depends on your site size, niche competitiveness, and scope. There are no fixed packages. The first step is always a free SEO audit, with a reply within 24 hours.
You talk to the person doing the work from day one. No account manager relay, no junior handling your account. I run the audit, the strategy, and the execution myself, and you can see the process on the hire page.
An agency splits your project across multiple people and departments. A freelance SEO expert like me handles strategy and execution personally, so nothing gets lost in handoffs and you get direct answers, not status updates written by someone else.
Yes. Most of my local clients aren’t SEO people, and they don’t need to be. I explain what I’m doing in plain terms, and if you want to learn the basics yourself, I run a free training resource for local business owners.
Expert SEO Freelance is Syed Sheraz Shah’s independent SEO practice, built for businesses that want direct, senior-level SEO work without agency overhead. It covers WordPress SEO, local SEO, technical SEO, content SEO, link building, and AEO/GEO for AI search, delivered personally rather than handed off to a team.
