WordPress SEO,
done beyond
Yoast defaults.
WordPress runs 43% of the web — and 90% of those sites leave most of the SEO ceiling untouched. Theme audit, schema graph, Yoast / Rank Math configured properly, image + plugin discipline, and CWV green at launch. Six-week sprint inside your existing WordPress install.

CMS on earth.
Almost no one uses it that way.
Tuned properly, WP wins on every front.
But this is what I find on month one.
15 fixes I ship
on every WordPress site.
Plugin audit + ruthless cleanup
Yoast / Rank Math configured fully
Schema graph on, breadcrumbs, sitelinks search box, social images, FAQ + HowTo where fit.
Custom JSON-LD blocks
Image optimization pipeline
Theme heading hierarchy
Internal linking system
Caching + CDN
Core Web Vitals tuning
Hosting upgrade (if needed)
Author + Person schema
XML sitemap + robots.txt
Page builder strip / swap
Database cleanup
Post revisions limited, transients cleared, autoload bloat fixed.
Security hardening
Wordfence / Sucuri + login lockdown. SEO suffers when sites get hacked.
GSC + GA4 + monitoring

The honest answers.
Yoast and Rank Math are starting points, not strategies. They set decent defaults; my work is the 80% they don't do — entity wiring, sameAs network, custom JSON-LD, content restructure, plugin discipline, theme markup tuning, and the CWV + a11y work plugins can't touch.
Most often, yes. About 60% of my WP clients are on a custom theme + ACF / Gutenberg setup. The audit identifies whether the existing theme is salvageable or needs a child-theme rebuild. We don't fight your theme — we fix it.
Usually, yes — but not always. If you live in your page builder daily and your team can't learn Gutenberg, we leave the builder and tune within its constraints (which is harder, but doable). For new sites we always recommend native Gutenberg.
If you sell on WP, yes — Product schema, AggregateRating, Offer, category page optimization, search-spam control. WooCommerce-specific SEO is its own discipline; we cover it within the sprint when relevant.
If hosting is the bottleneck, yes — Kinsta, WP Engine, Cloudways, all migrations done cleanly with 301 mapping and zero SEO equity loss. Hosting upgrades are surprisingly often the single biggest CWV lift.
Yes. Bn-BD + en common in BD client work. Hreflang setup, locale schema, parallel content structure. Polylang is my default; WPML where the workflow already exists.
Default mode. I do audit + strategy + schema; your dev team implements; I pair-review at milestones. Most efficient when dev capacity already exists.
You get a live site, full documentation, and a maintenance playbook. Optional monthly retainer ($600/mo) for ongoing content additions, schema updates, CWV monitoring. Or you take the playbook and run it internally.
Same WordPress.
New ceiling.
