I Didn't Start Out in SEO
Honestly, when I was younger, I did not even know this field existed.
That understanding of the human behind the search query is something you can’t learn from a textbook. You learn it by talking to thousands of real people.
That was around a decade ago, and I have been in this field ever since, learning, testing, and growing with every change search has thrown at us.

You will find a lot of content on this website: articles, guides, breakdowns of real client work, and honest takes on where search is heading.
I write all of it myself, in my own voice, based on what I am actually seeing in my work. Not recycled advice, not generic AI-generated fluff. Real experience, real client data, real results, including the mistakes and the lessons along the way.
So that is what I try to be for the people reading my work now, whether you are a business owner trying to understand what is happening, or a fellow marketer trying to stay ahead.

Questions People Ask Me
What does an AI SEO specialist actually do?
An AI SEO specialist helps businesses stay visible not just on traditional Google results, but across AI-powered tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. This means understanding how these tools source, cite, and surface information and shaping your content and online presence so you get included in those answers, not just in traditional rankings. In practice, it involves entity building, structured content, citation-worthy assets, and making sure the right signals exist for AI tools to trust and reference your business.

How long have you been in SEO and digital marketing?
Around a decade. I joined my first digital marketing agency in 2015, founded Elysian Digital Services in 2018, and have been specialising in SEO ever since. Over the last couple of years I have been focused specifically on AI SEO as the search landscape has shifted dramatically. Before digital marketing, I worked in call centres across banking, insurance, and BPO, which, honestly, gave me a better understanding of customer psychology than any course has.
