Search Engine Optimisation

I build SEO strategies around search intent, technical foundations and measurable organic growth.

My approach combines keyword research, on-page SEO, technical optimisation, content structure and measurement, with the business objective kept in focus.

How I Approach SEO

Every SEO element should work together toward stronger search visibility.

I connect search intent, technical health, page structure, content and measurement rather than treating SEO as a checklist.

SEO Skills

The SEO capabilities I bring to a marketing team.

I diagnose the specific search and technical opportunity first, then prioritise the work that can improve visibility and business outcomes.

01

Keyword Research & Mapping

Real search intent behind every term, mapped to the specific page built to answer it, not stuffed into one.

02

On-Page & Technical SEO

Site speed, crawlability, meta structure, and internal linking, the foundations most audits skip past.

03

Local & Multi-Location SEO

Built for hospitality and service businesses competing for "near me" and city-specific searches.

04

Schema & Structured Data

The markup that tells search engines exactly what they're looking at, reviews, pricing, availability.

05

Content & Landing Pages

Pages written to rank for a specific term and still read like a person wrote them for another person.

06

Ongoing Rank Tracking

Ongoing measurement of rankings, clicks, impressions and page performance, using the data to decide what to improve next.

What's Actually Left

Research the query. Build the page. Measure the result.

Seen The Way Search Sees It

Selected SEO Performance Evidence

Search Console data provides a direct view of clicks, impressions, CTR and average position, useful evidence for understanding whether SEO work is moving visibility.

Review

The portfolio focuses on measurable search performance and the work behind the movement.

The Difference

What changes when SEO is treated as an ongoing growth discipline.

Before

Without structured research and technical foundations, pages can target the wrong queries, miss search features and struggle to build visibility.

After

With intent-led keyword mapping, strong page structure, schema and relevant content, each page has a clearer role in organic search.

Where You Actually Rank

Search visibility matters because the right audience cannot act on a business they cannot find.

How A Ranking Actually Happens

My SEO Process

01. Audit

Establishing the starting point before deciding what to optimise.

I assess current rankings, technical issues, search intent and competitor gaps to build a practical starting point.

02. Keyword Strategy

Mapping search intent to the right pages.

I research relevant queries and map them to specific pages so each page has a clear search purpose.

03. Build & Optimise

Executing on-page, technical and structured-data improvements together.

I work across metadata, internal linking, schema, content and technical foundations so improvements reinforce each other.

04. Track & Refine

Measuring, learning and refining.

I monitor meaningful search terms and performance data, then use the results to guide the next optimisation cycle.
