- What is local SEO?
- It is optimizing a business to appear for searches tied to a place, such as a service in a particular city. It combines the website (pages per service, structured data, speed), Google Business Profile and its reviews, and consistent business details across the web.
- How is multilingual SEO different?
- People search in each language with different words, so each language needs its own page and hreflang. Google is the main search engine, while Yandex still matters for Russian-speaking audiences.
- Can you work on my existing website, or do I need a redesign?
- I can work on your existing site. Both of my local SEO projects, for a beauty studio and for a Vilnius auto service, were done on the clients' own sites with no redesign. A redesign only comes up if the site's structure itself blocks the fixes.
- Do you set up Google Business Profile?
- Yes: description, categories, photos, posts and replies to reviews. For a beauty studio it was the main channel, driving more traffic than the website itself.
- Is there a free audit?
- Yes. The SEO checker on this site runs a 20-skill audit through Claude: Core Web Vitals, meta tags, schema.org, content, links and AI visibility. You sign in through Telegram, it takes about 4 to 6 minutes and the report arrives as text and PDF.
- Can you get my business cited by ChatGPT and other AI search?
- I can make your pages easy for AI crawlers to read and quote: server-rendered content, structured data, answer-first summaries and a robots.txt that allows search crawlers such as OAI-SearchBot. No one can guarantee citations, and llms.txt is a supplement, not the main mechanism.
- How long until I see results?
- Technical fixes and re-indexing show up first, while ranking movement takes longer and depends on competition. I will not give a fixed promise; I report what was fixed and what changed in Search Console.
- Do you handle content in other languages?
- I work in English and Russian. If a project needs native copy in another language, a native-speaking translator or copywriter is planned as a separate line in the estimate.
