Work with me

I have 15 years of experience in SEO, affiliate marketing, and building online businesses. In 2020-2024, I was working in C-level positions. Starting 2024, I am an independent business and management consultant.

Express consulting

I am offering “pick my brain” format: you describe a problem in your email, we discuss it on 1-hour online call. Quick questions – quick answers based on my experience and intuition. 1 hour is more than enough to find a new direction, it is a high-ROI format. The service costs 500 euro.

There are three typical cases when this service will be useful.

You struggle with a tough business decision

I won’t make the decision for you. I will ask the right questions that will help you do it yourself and execute with open eyes and confidence.

You have a new startup idea

I will help to crush-test it from three different angles: as a marketing expert, as a manager and as an investor.

Your business requires SEO or GEO

I am not a regular SEO expert. I combine deep technical SEO knowledge with management expertise as well as product development experience. I will give you a helicopter view: what strategy is efficient in your particular case, which are the golden 20% effort that bring 80% of results.

Project advisory support

I can offer recurrent guidance. My scope of work:

  • Developing of the overall business or marketing strategy (with SEO focus); developing a plan for implementing structural changes in your organization.

  • Determining key metrics.

  • Assessing candidates for management and marketing positions to help a hiring manager make final decision.

  • Audit of the project or strategy implementation.

  • Help with decision making.

I usually do it only for my old clients after deep understanding their challenges and competitive landscape. So the express consultation is the necessary first step.

My experience at a glance

  • 2010 – 2018 – developed my own web projects, including SEO online analytics tools and offering consulting. Here is an archive of my old blog and my old site about consulting with some testimonials from my clients. You might be also interested in the interviews (one, two, three) I gave in this period. I also done plenty of speaking on SEO conferences. Here is a couple of links with media coverage (one, two) and the full set of my presentations.

  • 2018 – 2020 – I worked as the Head of SEO in Legalbet (Latvia). An interview from this period.

  • 2020 – I was promoted to the Director of product and marketing.

  • 2021 – 2024 – I worked as the CEO of the same company. I also continued to occasionally give talks on the conferences (one, two) and give interviews.

  • 2022 – I launched a new start-up – SEO SAAS Buddler.com. I make plenty of very costly mistakes with this project (so I can keep you from making them) and eventually closed it in 2025.
