About

I’m an SEO and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) strategy lead with 10 years of experience in organic growth, technical SEO, and AI-driven content discoverability.

My work sits at the intersection of two frontiers: traditional search engine optimization and the emerging discipline of GEO/AEO (Answer Engine Optimization). I build strategies that help content rank in Google and get cited by AI systems like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini.

What I do:
→ SEO strategy across News, Evergreen, and Affiliate verticals
→ GEO & AEO: FAQ schema, entity optimization, LLM-friendly content structuring
→ Technical SEO: crawl optimization, Core Web Vitals, hreflang, structured data
→ AI Overviews readiness and generative engine visibility
→ Data-driven content strategy aligned with search intent and AI retrieval patterns
→ Large-scale metadata and structured data pipelines (1,000+ pages)
