SEO service specialties
when working with clients
Technical SEO
A strong technical foundation is a requirement for domains with hundreds of thousands or millions of pages. Aspects such as robots.txt files, XML sitemaps, site performance, and structured data can all be contributors to organic rankings.
Featured client 
Ecommerce SEO
Large eCommerce stores come with SEO challenges, especially when you have thousands of products across various regions. Ranking within free product listings with GMC Next, pagination, and having a PDP/PLP strategy are important considerations.
Featured client 
Marketplace SEO
Online marketplaces require a specialist skill set to effectively use and scale platform-specific data for SEO. Including optimising listing or classified pages, using UGC, having a “near me” strategy, or minimising page exclusions, every aspect counts.
Featured client 
Aggregator SEO
When bringing together datasets from various external sources, it can be difficult to maintain quality and provide a USP. Having crossover disciplines among eCommerce and Marketplaces, Aggregator platforms play an important role in Search.

News SEO
The landscape on Google for news publishers is vastly different to other types of websites. Surfaces such as Top Stories, Google News, the ‘News’ tab, and Discover make up the primary features for traffic-generation for large news publishers.

Image SEO
Gaining targeted visitors from Image Search is a common traffic source, with aspects such as image thumbnails within Web Search bringing an extra layer of complexity. Image SEO allows sites to gain more visibility for an important on-site asset.

Web Migrations
If mismanaged, web migrations can go extremely wrong, with there often being irreparable damage done to SEO. Effective pre and post-migration planning and support across website structure, URLs, on-site content, and redirects can all make a difference.
Audits
Effective SEO audits require an intimate understanding of business goals, resources, and challenges to be truly valuable. Whether it be working with in-house SEOs, heads of department, or the site owner, recommendations should be actionable and impactful.

Common questions
that I get asked
Do you do white-label projects for agencies or other digital professionals?
No. I'm a independent SEO consultant that only works with clients directly. If you have a client who you think would be interested in my services, I do encourage reaching out to discuss if the project is a good fit, but your client would need to contact me directly. I may however know a suitable freelance SEO consultant that works with agencies that I could recommend.
Do you also work with clients that are based outside of Melbourne and Australia?
While I am known for being a Melbourne-based SEO Consultant, I do also regularly work with clients throughout Australia and globally. I've worked with clients in the US, Canada, the UK, and also countries where English isn't their first language and they're wanting to internationalise. So yes, I'm an SEO Consultant in Melbourne, but I operate internationally.
Do you work with small businesses who are just getting started with SEO?
These types of projects generally aren't a good fit for what I offer. I am however well-connected in the SEO world and can make a trusted recommendation for an SEO agency or another freelance SEO consultant for you to work with, whether that be an SEO Consultant Melbourne or an SEO Expert Australia and internationally. If your job title includes that you're the 'Head of Growth', 'Director of Growth' or similar, and you work for a company that's considered in the mid- to large-sized range, you're a well-suited client for my SEO consultancy.
How much do your SEO consulting services cost?
It really depends on the requirements for the SEO project, along with the size, complexity, and amount of traffic for your site or. My rate is however higher than your typical SEO consultant due to my experience and knowledge of the SEO space. My SEO consulting pricing is the same rate for both Melbourne SEO projects along with Australian and internationally.
What types of SEO clients do you normally work with and specialise in?
I work with most types of sites, aside from Local SEO projects that are focused around optimising Google Business Profiles and also SaaS providers. I also explicitly don't work with anything gambling-related. Some of my interest areas include working with marketplaces, eCommerce businesses, and also news publishers and large-scale content publishers of various kinds.
What do SEO consultants do? And how are they different from agencies?
An SEO consultant is an experienced expert in the field of search engine optimization, delivering tailored advice for websites that rely on exposure through Google's organic search results. The SEO consultant's goal is to help customers find you and remain competitive in your sector. The difference in working with an SEO consultant compared to an agency is in the experience that a consultant likely has compared to an agency employee and also the number of clients that an agency employee has compared to the consultant. SEO consultants will tend to have fewer clients than what an account manager from an SEO agency has.
