• Link Building & Digital PR: Set the off-page strategy and link quality standards, link-building on outreach and digital PR, and monitor the health of the backlink profile, including toxic links.

• Local & International SEO: Manage multi-location and multi-region SEO, including Google Business Profiles, hreflang, and localized content where applicable.

• Analytics & Reporting: Build and maintain dashboards in GA4, Google Search Console, and Looker Studio. Report performance, insights, and next steps to stakeholders every month and quarter.

• Algorithm & Industry Monitoring: Track Google core and algorithm updates, SERP feature changes, and industry trends. Diagnose traffic drops and lead the recovery plan.
