Audits, monthly work and website builds
SEO Specialist in Mumbai: I find why Google isn't sending traffic, then fix it
I handle search for websites, build WordPress sites that are ready for Google from day one, and build my own tools for the checks I keep repeating.

Three ways I can help
Pick the one closest to your problem. Scope and price are agreed after I have looked at your site and Search Console, never before.
What you get from an audit
For pages missing from Google, dropped rankings, or flat traffic. I crawl the site, compare it with what Google reports, and give you one fix list ranked by impact.
- Crawl, index and canonical checks
- Site structure and internal link map
- Schema and Core Web Vitals review
- One ranked fix list and a walkthrough call
What SEO for websites includes
Ongoing monthly SEO for your website. I match pages to what people really search, fix what is holding them back and report on the results every month.
- Keyword research and intent mapping
- Pillar and cluster content plan
- Titles, headings, links and schema fixed
- Monthly Search Console report
What an SEO-ready website build includes
A new site or rebuild, ready for search from day one. Pages planned around searches, a clean build you can edit yourself, and a short handover at the end.
- Page structure planned around searches
- SEO plugin, schema, sitemaps and redirects
- Forms and analytics connected
- Handover so you can edit pages safely
What changed on the sites I work on
One method on both: find what stops a page from ranking, fix it in order of impact, and check the result in Search Console.

Where I look first when a page will not rank
The cause is almost always in one of a few places. I check them in this order, because the first ones are bugs and the quickest wins.
1
Google cannot reach the page
A robots.txt rule, a leftover noindex tag, a redirect chain or a server error stops Google before it reads a word.
2
Google reads it but does not keep it
"Crawled, currently not indexed" usually means the page looks thin or too similar to another. Improving or merging it works; asking again does not.
3
The page does not match the search
Someone searching "MBA admission fees" wants a fee table, not a brand story. Page type and search intent have to agree.
4
Important pages get no internal links
A key page buried four clicks deep, or linked only with "read more", gets little attention from Google.
Tools I have built
I build tools for work I kept repeating. Some are public, some are for my own use, and the tools page has the details.

Questions people ask first
Short answers. If yours is not here, ask me.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the size of the site and the problem. Send me the link and I will reply with a scope and a price before any work starts.
How long until I see results?
It depends on competition and how much needs fixing. Technical fixes can show up in Search Console within weeks, while ranking gains on competitive searches usually take longer.
Can you fix my WordPress site as well as advise on it?
Yes. I work in WordPress every day, so I can make the changes myself or write them up for your developer.
Let's talk
Got a site that is stuck?
