Cover image for Traditional SEO is dead. Keywords
Traditional SEO is dead. Keywords and backlinks won't save you in the AI search era. Why? Because AI search agents don't index blue links; they read and synthesize answers. And if your engineering team has accumulated "semantic debt"—generic div tags, out-of-order headers, inaccessible modals—you are completely invisible to LLM crawlers. The best SEO optimization you can make right now isn't on your copy. It's in your accessibility audit. Here's why accessibility is your ultimate SEO insurance policy for 2026: [Link in the comments]

Cover image for I engineered a bespoke consulting
I engineered a bespoke consulting platform designed to automate deep-site auditing and deliver a premium, high-touch client experience. Moving away from manual reporting workflows, I built a custom technical engine that scales my audit capabilities and organizes every client deliverable within a single, secure interface. Key Features & Engineering Highlights: Automated Deep-Scan Auditor: I built an automated scanning engine that crawls client sites to audit and score performance across four main pillars: Technical SEO, AEO (Answer Engine Optimization for AI search engines), Content Quality, and Accessibility. Interactive Client Portal: I designed and developed a secure dashboard where clients can view live reporting metrics, track their site's audit scores over time, and manage their optimization pipeline. Developer-Ready Ticket Markdowns: To bridge the gap between audit findings and execution, the portal automatically formats audit issues into clean Markdown tickets, ready to copy directly into Jira, Linear, or GitHub. Training Playbooks & Deliverables: Built-in repository hosting customized training modules and playbooks alongside a secure file-download center for audits and strategy briefs.

Cover image for I conducted a deep technical
I conducted a deep technical architecture and search discovery audit for an enterprise web platform to identify critical performance bottlenecks, search engine visibility blockers, and accessibility issues. Rather than delivering a generic, static PDF report that gets shelved, I provided a high-impact, dual-delivery solution: an executive strategy brief paired with a production-ready development backlog. I translated complex technical SEO, accessibility (WCAG AA), and performance findings directly into structured tickets (with exact code-level fixes, severity levels, and clear acceptance criteria) ready to be imported straight into Jira, Linear, or GitHub issues. My role and key deliverables included: Technical SEO Audit: Pinpointed search discovery and crawling bottlenecks, including missing schema markup and structural indexation issues. Core Web Vitals & Performance Optimization: Identified critical render-blocking JavaScript and unoptimized assets impacting page load speeds and organic search ranking signals. Accessibility & Contrast Compliance: Conducted a comprehensive sweep for keyboard navigation focus trap failures, missing ARIA/input labels, and color contrast violations. Developer-Ready Backlog: Translated all audit findings into action-oriented development tasks with explicit code recommendations to ensure seamless execution.
