Hire a Freelance Technical SEO Consultant
If Google can’t crawl your site, or if AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity can’t make sense of it, your content won’t rank. As a freelance technical SEO consultant, I find and fix crawl, speed, indexing, and structured data issues that hold your website back. You’ll work with me directly, without agency layers or junior staff.
Get a Free Site CheckWhat does a freelance technical SEO consultant do?
A freelance SEO technical consultant checks and fixes backend issues that prevent search engines from crawling, indexing, or ranking your website. This covers site speed, Core Web Vitals, crawlability, XML sitemaps, canonical tags, redirects, HTTPS, mobile usability, and schema markup.
When should you hire one?
Bring in a freelancer if your traffic drops, pages aren’t indexed, your site is slow, you’re planning a migration or redesign, or you want to appear in Google AI Overviews and ChatGPT answers.
Technical SEO services
Technical SEO audit
I crawl your site and check indexing, crawl errors, broken links, duplicate content, redirect chains, internal links, and site structure. You’ll get a clear roadmap ranked by impact and effort, not just a long list of tool warnings.
Page speed and Core Web Vitals
I improve Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), Interaction to Next Paint (INP), and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) by optimising images, setting up caching, cleaning up scripts, and fixing server responses.
Crawlability and indexing
I fix robots.txt errors, accidental noindex tags, canonical conflicts, orphan pages and crawl-budget waste so your important pages appear in search results.
Schema markup and structured data
I set up and validate JSON-LD for Organisation, LocalBusiness, Service, Product, FAQ, Article, and Breadcrumb. This helps search engines and AI tools recognise your business and understand your services
structure and internal linking
I organise content into topic clusters with a clear hierarchy, canonical URLs and contextual links, so search engines understand how your pages relate.
XML sitemaps, HTTPS and security
I set up clean sitemaps, configure SSL/HTTPS correctly, and fix mixed-content errors
International and multilingual SEO
For sites in multiple languages or regions, I set up hreflang tags and clean URL structures so each audience sees the right version.
Site migrations and redesigns
I map URLs, set up 301 redirects, preserve key content and monitor Search Console before and after launch to protect your traffic.
Platform support
I work on WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, Webflow, Odoo and custom-built sites.

- Technical audit report with screenshots and priorities
- Fix list or direct implementation.

- Core Web Vitals before-and-after report

AI search optimisation (AEO and GEO)
Today, buyers use ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews to get recommendations. These tools prefer pages that load quickly, are easy to crawl, have clear structure, and show consistent business details.My technical work supports answer engine optimisation (AEO) and generative engine optimisation (GEO) through:
- Schema that defines your business, services and authors
- Answer-first sections with clear headings and concise definitions
- FAQ content that matches real search questions
- Correct crawler access in robots.txt for search and AI bots
- Consistent business details across your site and profiles
No one can promise your site will appear in AI answers. But a strong technical foundation removes barriers and improves your chances.
Why hire a freelancer instead of an agency or in-house hire?
Direct access
You talk to the person doing the work, not an account manager.
Lower overhead
You pay for expertise, not agency fees or a full-time salary.
Flexible scope
Choose a one-time audit, a fix-and-handoff project, or monthly support.
Faster start
Most projects begin within days, not weeks.
Plain-language communication
Every fix is explained clearly for you and your developer.
Frequently asked questions
Costs depend on your site’s size and needs. A one-time audit is less expensive than ongoing monthly support. Send your URL for a free quote.
Technical SEO covers how search engines access and process your site: speed, crawling, indexing and structure. On-page SEO covers the content on each page: titles, headings, copy and keywords. Both are needed.
Indexing and speed fixes can show results in a few weeks. Ranking and traffic improvements usually take two to four months, depending on competition and how often search engines crawl your site.
A freelancer suits focused technical work, with direct communication and lower cost. An agency suits large multi-channel campaigns. If your need is technical, a specialist freelancer is usually the better fit.
I can help AI systems read and trust your site by improving schema, structure, and crawl access. I can’t guarantee specific placement.
I offer both options. I can make the fixes myself or give your developer a clear technical brief.
es, I work with clients in any country. All work is done remotely, and we’ll communicate by email, video calls, and shared reports.
You’ll need to provide your website URL and, if possible, view access to Google Search Console and GA4. For a basic review, just the URL is enough.
