Founders and small teams who care how their brand shows up - early-stage startups, B2B and SaaS companies, and established small businesses ready to take organic search seriously. I work as a fractional SEO and AEO partner: senior strategy without the overhead of a full agency retainer. If you're spending beautifully on everything a customer sees, I make sure they can actually find you.

Fractional SEO is senior search strategy on a part-time, ongoing basis - the expertise of a head of SEO without a full-time hire or an agency retainer. I embed with your team a few days a month: setting direction, prioritizing the work that actually moves rankings, and making sure it ships. It's how growing startups and small teams get senior SEO and AEO judgment at a fraction of the cost.

A fractional SEO consultant runs your search strategy the way an in-house head of SEO would, for a few days a month instead of full time. In practice that means an audit and a prioritized roadmap first, then the ongoing work: keyword and content strategy, page briefs or the copy itself, technical fixes with your developer or directly in your CMS, and reporting on what moved. You get one senior person who knows your brand, not an account manager and a rotating team.

SEO compounds. Most clients see meaningful ranking movement within 8-12 weeks, with more decisive shifts between months 4 and 6. Technical fixes can deliver faster wins (sometimes days), while content-driven and authority-driven gains take longer. I set clear benchmarks for each engagement so the timeline is never a mystery.

AEO - answer engine optimization - is the discipline of getting your brand cited inside AI-generated answers: ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. Classic SEO earns you a ranking; AEO earns you the mention when a machine summarizes the answer for your customer. The two reinforce each other, and I build for both, because that's increasingly where the first impression happens.

It depends on the package. Some engagements are fully hands-off - I audit, strategize, and execute end-to-end. Others are collaborative, with weekly strategy sessions while your team handles implementation. I scope every engagement to match your team's capacity, and I'll tell you upfront how much of your time I'll need.

Depending on the package. Content writing and on-page optimization are typically included in content-strategy engagements. For heavier copywriting - landing pages, blog series, product descriptions - we scope it in separately. I don't hand off AI-generated drafts; every word is researched, intentional, and written to your brand voice.

Any platform - I'll pick it up. I have deeper hands-on experience with WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace, and Wix, but SEO fundamentals travel. If your site runs on Webflow, Framer, a headless setup, or something custom, that's fine - the strategy doesn't change.

Not at all. I'm based in Denver, Colorado, but the work is remote-first, so most of my clients are spread across the US - with a handful in Europe. When a project genuinely benefits from being in the same room, I travel and meet in person. Search strategy doesn't depend on a zip code.

With the metrics that actually indicate SEO health - not vanity numbers. I track keyword rankings (positions 1-20 only), organic impressions and clicks in Google Search Console, AEO citation presence across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and AI Overviews, and organic traffic quality. Every engagement includes a monthly review with charted trends, not a data dump.
