About

Is your website invisible on Google? Or are you spending on ads without consistent returns? That's exactly what I help fix. I am Ankit, an SEO specialist and performance marketer with 3 years of experience working with brands in India, USA and Dubai. I currently manage SEO for a UAE-based client and have worked across e-commerce, D2C, and service businesses. What I do for brands: → Audit and fix technical SEO issues hurting your rankings → Build keyword strategies that bring buyers, not just traffic → Optimise pages so Google knows exactly what you offer → Create backlink strategies that build real domain authority → Set up proper tracking via GSC and Google Analytics On the paid side, I have advanced performance marketing knowledge covering Meta Ads, Google Ads, audience targeting, and campaign optimisation through Young Urban's programme, and I'm actively building live case studies. On the paid media side, I recently managed a Google Ads campaign for a spa business in Goa, reducing their cost per conversion from ₹10,172 to ₹386 in 15 days while spending 28% less budget. I handle full campaign setup including GTM, conversion tracking, call extensions, and WhatsApp click tracking If you're a small business or D2C brand being ignored by Google or burning ad budget without results, let's talk. 📩 DM me for a free SEO audit.
