My Services
SEO Optimization
01
On-Page SEO
On-page SEO focuses on enhancing the content and structure of your website to improve search engine visibility. I’ll write keyword-rich content, optimize your titles and meta descriptions for better click-through rates, and organize headings for a smoother user experience. These strategic updates help boost your rankings for key search terms and increase your site's overall performance.
02
Off-Page SEO
Off-page SEO focuses on building your website’s authority through activities beyond its pages. I’ll acquire high-quality backlinks from trusted sources, strengthen your brand’s visibility across social media platforms, and manage online reviews to enhance your reputation. These strategies increase trust, boost your site’s credibility, and improve its position in search engine results.
03
Technical SEO
Technical SEO focuses on optimizing your website’s infrastructure to ensure fast performance and easy search engine access. I’ll resolve slow-loading issues, enhance mobile responsiveness, and implement settings that help search engines crawl and understand your site more effectively. These improvements boost your site’s usability and search rankings.
04
SEO Link Building
Link building is the process of earning backlinks from other reputable websites to strengthen your site's authority. I’ll develop share-worthy content, research your competitors’ link profiles, and actively reach out to secure high-quality backlinks. These valuable connections enhance your site’s credibility and contribute to higher search engine rankings.
05
Local SEO
If your business targets customers in a specific area, local SEO is key to standing out. I’ll optimize your Google Business Profile, ensure consistent and accurate information across online directories, and help generate positive local reviews. These efforts increase your visibility in local search results and attract more customers from your area.

SEO Audit & Analysis
To start, I’ll perform a full SEO audit to evaluate your website’s current performance. I’ll check your search rankings, pinpoint slow-loading pages, and uncover any technical or content-related issues.

F.A.Q.
Get clear answers to frequently asked questions about our services and SEO strategies.
What’s Included in My SEO Services?
I focus on the metrics that matter most — website traffic, keyword rankings, and most importantly, leads and sales. You’ll receive regular performance reports showing how your site is performing in Google, including insights on where your visitors are coming from and how they’re finding you — whether locally or globally.
How long does it take to see SEO results?
Every website is different, but you can typically start seeing noticeable improvements within 3 to 6 months. I combine quick wins with long-term strategies to ensure steady and lasting growth — whether you’re targeting the Philippine market or a global audience. SEO is like building a strong foundation: it takes time, but the results are built to last.
Why should I hire an SEO specialist instead of doing it myself?
Think of SEO like tuning a car — you might handle the basics, but a specialist with real experience can fine-tune everything faster, avoid costly mistakes, and get better results. I handle the technical side so you can stay focused on what you do best: running your business.
How do you measure SEO success for local websites?
I focus on real business metrics — not just rankings. That means tracking website traffic, keyword performance, and most importantly, the leads or sales generated. You’ll receive regular reports showing how your site is performing in Google, including where your visitors are coming from and how they’re discovering your business, whether locally in the Philippines or beyond.
Should I still invest in SEO if I’m doing ads?
Absolutely! Paid ads bring quick traffic, but SEO builds long-term visibility. Think of it this way: ads are like renting a house — once you stop paying, the traffic stops. SEO, on the other hand, is like owning the property. When people search for your products or services on Google, SEO helps your brand show up organically — without paying for every single click.
What makes your SEO methods safe and effective?
I use only proven white-hat SEO strategies that follow Google’s best practices. No risky shortcuts, no shady tactics — just solid, ethical techniques that protect your site and deliver long-term results. My focus is on creating valuable content and building your online authority the right way.
Should I focus on local SEO for my business?
Absolutely! Most customers search for services near them. I’ll help you target specific cities or regions, optimize your Google Business Profile, and improve your visibility in local search results — so your business gets found by the right people, right where they are.
How do you adapt to Google’s algorithm updates?
I stay up to date with every Google algorithm change and adjust my strategies accordingly to keep your rankings safe and stable. You won’t have to worry about the technical details — I’ll handle all the behind-the-scenes work and keep you informed about any updates that directly impact your website.
What’s your approach to keyword research for local markets?
I focus on finding keywords your local audience actually uses — including regional terms, casual language, and industry-specific phrases. Rather than just chasing high search volumes, I target keywords that connect with real customers in your area and bring in quality traffic that converts.
Is SEO a one-time service or an ongoing process?
SEO is an ongoing process. Just like regular car maintenance keeps your engine running smoothly, consistent SEO keeps your website performing at its best. The digital landscape and your competitors are always evolving — that’s why I continuously refine and optimize your site to keep you ranking high.
Can you help businesses outside the Philippines?
Absolutely! While I’m based in the Philippines, I work with clients from all over the world — including Asia, Europe, and the Americas. I use proven SEO strategies that adapt to different markets, and with tools like Zoom, email, and cloud collaboration, I can deliver results no matter where you’re located.
