WordPress SEO services for the problem you actually have

Twenty fixed-scope WordPress technical SEO services, WooCommerce stores included. These eight are where most sites start when they need to rank higher.

/audit Technical SEO Audit A crawl, a Search Console baseline and a fix list ranked by the clicks each problem costs you. No score out of 100. /index Indexing and Crawl Fixes Pages stuck on "Discovered" or "Crawled, currently not indexed", blocked resources, and sitemaps that list the wrong URLs. /speed Speed and Core Web Vitals LCP, INP and CLS into the green on real Chrome field data, not just a lab score. Images, scripts, caching and hosting. /store WooCommerce SEO Category pages that rank, product schema that validates, and filters that stop spawning thousands of thin URLs. /move Migration and Redesign SEO Every old URL mapped with a 301 before launch, so a new theme or a platform move doesn't reset your rankings. /drop Google Penalty and Traffic Drop Recovery Manual actions, core update drops and hacked spam pages, diagnosed from Search Console before anything gets changed. /schema Schema Markup Organization, Product, Service and breadcrumb markup that validates and matches what's actually on the page. /ai AI Search Optimization Pages written and marked up so ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews can quote them.

// what a wordpress seo consultant does

What does a WordPress SEO consultant actually do?

WordPress SEO is the work of making a WordPress site easy for Google to crawl, index and understand, then making each page the clearest answer to the search it's meant to win. WordPress gets a lot right out of the box. The trouble is that the theme, the page builder, the SEO plugin and the cache all write into the same HTML, sitemap and schema, and they don't always agree. My job is finding where they clash and fixing it at the source, not adding another plugin on top.

I work on the technical and on-page side. I don't sell link building or digital PR: the fixes make the authority your site already has count, and if links are what's missing, you'll hear that plainly, not find them bundled into a quote.

i.

The SEO plugins I work in

Rank Math and Yoast, configured past their defaults (how I choose between Rank Math and Yoast), plus WooCommerce, ACF and JetEngine data.

ii.

Builders, caching and CDN

Elementor Pro, Divi, Bricks and Gutenberg, with WP Rocket, LiteSpeed and Cloudflare set up for SEO. Most slow WordPress sites are a clash between these layers.

iii.

Security, where it touches search

A hack that injects spam pages is an SEO problem too. I clean them out and check what the hack did to rankings in Search Console.

// who hires me - two kinds of site

For WordPress businesses and WooCommerce stores

Most of my work comes from two kinds of site. They break in different ways, so they don't get the same fixes.

i.

Small business sites on WordPress

Service businesses, clinics, trades and rentals that need enquiries from Google, not just visitors.

  • Service and location landing pages that show up for "service plus city" searches and bring in leads
  • A site architecture where every money page is indexed and linked, none left orphaned
  • Speed fixed on the phone your customers actually use
  • Proof: an Edmonton tile firm at position 1.1 on its own name
See the Edmonton results →
ii.

WooCommerce stores

Stores with hundreds or thousands of products that need category and product pages ranking.

  • Category pages built around what buyers type, prices included
  • Product schema, variations and filter URLs handled properly
  • Cart and checkout scripts kept off the pages that rank
  • Proof: GK Jewelers, 39,953 clicks in a quarter at position 4.0

// traffic drop recovery

Lost rankings after a redesign, migration or update?

It's the most common emergency I get, and it's usually fixable. A redesign that changes URLs without redirects, a migration that drops half the sitemap and a core update that hits thin pages all look the same in Search Console: a cliff.

GK Jewelers shipped a redesign in June 2026 without a redirect map. Daily clicks fell from 162 to 49 in three days. With every old URL mapped and the sitemap resubmitted, the store was back to 362 clicks a day by 20 June.

// consultant or agency - an honest comparison

A WordPress SEO consultant, or a bigger firm?

Agencies and big SEO companies are built for volume. A technical problem on a WordPress site needs a WordPress SEO expert who reads the code and the Search Console data personally. Here's the difference in practice.

// A typical agency

What usually happens

  • An account manager between you and whoever does the work
  • A monthly ranking report instead of a list of fixes
  • An SEO plugin installed and a checklist ticked
  • Blog posts written before anyone checks indexing
  • A retainer that renews whether anything moved or not
// Working with me

What you get instead

  • The person you message is the person doing the fix
  • A fix list ranked by the clicks each problem costs
  • Changes made in themes, templates and the server, not just a plugin
  • Search Console numbers before and after every change
  • A written scope with a fixed price before work starts

Stop guessing. Get a straight answer.

// process - from audit to fixes

How a WordPress SEO audit turns into fixes

STEP 01

Baseline and access

You share the URL and read-only Search Console access. I record where clicks, impressions and indexing stand before anything changes.

STEP 02

Audit and diagnose

A crawl, the Page indexing report, field data and what WordPress actually outputs. Every finding is tied to a number.

STEP 03

Fix in order of clicks

The problems costing the most traffic go first, fixed in the theme, templates, plugins or server, with every change written down.

STEP 04

Re-measure and hand over

The same Search Console views, compared after the fixes. You own every change, and there's no lock-in.

// alberta - calgary, edmonton and beyond

SEO consultant for Calgary, Edmonton and all of Alberta

Most people looking for an SEO expert in Calgary or SEO services in Edmonton don't search for a platform. If your site runs on WordPress or WooCommerce, that's the part I fix, remotely and on Mountain Time. The WordPress SEO consultant for Alberta page compares the live map packs in 31 towns, so you can see how settled your market is before you pay anyone.

I don't have an office in your city, and I won't pretend to. What I've got is Alberta results in Search Console: an Edmonton tile company holds position 1.1 on its own name, 2.5 on grout cleaning and 3.4 on tile repair (Search Console, pulled 30 August 2026).

The same pack study is split by trade on the WordPress SEO pages by industry. Each starts from its own vertical's Alberta map pack, whether that's plumbers, electricians, glass and window companies, accountants, veterinary clinics or real estate agents.

Your WordPress SEO consultant, Muhammad Younus

I'm a WordPress technical SEO consultant, Top Rated Plus on Upwork with a 100% Job Success Score, and I've fixed 100+ WordPress sites over 8+ years. I got into this by fixing sites other people had abandoned, and that shaped how I work: measure first, scope in writing, and leave things easy to maintain.

I work with Calgary, Edmonton and other Alberta businesses remotely, the same way I work with the clients in my case studies across Canada, Texas, Colorado, Virginia, Washington State, Jamaica, the UK and Pakistan. If your site's slow, stuck out of the index or simply not bringing in business, that's exactly the problem I like solving. I write each method down as I go, in the blog on how I fix WordPress SEO.

// frequently asked questions - before you hire

WordPress SEO questions, answered

What do your WordPress SEO services include?

Technical search engine optimization for WordPress and WooCommerce only: audits, indexing and crawl fixes, Core Web Vitals, schema, migrations, traffic drop recovery and AI search readiness, plus on-page SEO, keyword research and content strategy for pages that need rewriting. I don't sell link building, ads or web design, so the authority your site already has is what the fixes put to work. Your SEO strategy comes straight from the audit: fix whatever stops Google crawling, understanding and ranking your pages, in order of the clicks at stake.

What does a WordPress SEO audit include?

A Search Console baseline, a full crawl, the Page indexing report, Core Web Vitals field data and a look at what your theme and SEO plugins, such as Rank Math or Yoast, actually output. You get the findings ranked by the clicks each one is costing you, not a score out of 100.

How much does a WordPress SEO consultant cost?

The packages above are the prices, in US dollars: $149 for the audit and $999 for the audit and fixes. Month to month, it's $299 for maintenance or $750 for growth, with no minimum term. You pay on Upwork. A bigger store gets a written quote on Upwork after a short call, and the price doesn't move once we've agreed it.

Are you an SEO agency?

No. I'm one consultant, and the person you message is the person who does the work. There's no account manager, no junior team and no handoff. It's also why I only take WordPress and WooCommerce sites: it's the platform I know down to the template files.

Do you work with Calgary and Edmonton businesses remotely?

Yes, everything's remote over Zoom, Google Meet and async messages, with calls on Mountain Time. Wherever you are in Calgary, Edmonton or the rest of Alberta, I audit and fix your site online, and your Search Console data shows the results either way.

How long before SEO fixes show in Search Console?

Redirect and indexing fixes can show within days, the way the GK Jewelers recovery did. Most technical changes need four to eight weeks before the numbers are worth judging, and I'll tell you which to expect before we start.

Will a migration or redesign hurt my Google rankings?

Not if it's done properly. Every migration includes a full URL inventory, a 301 redirect map and post-launch checks in Search Console. Protecting your rankings is part of the scope, not an add-on.

How do I hire you?

Through Upwork, where I'm Top Rated Plus with a 100% Job Success Score. You message me, we scope the work, and every review on my profile is verified by Upwork, so you're not taking my word for it. It also keeps your payments and milestones protected. What to send in that first message is on the contact page.

Can you get my business into the Google map pack?

Partly, and I'll be honest about it: your Google Business Profile and your reviews carry a lot of the map side, and I don't fabricate either. What I fix is the rest of what local search reads: your site's technical health, local markup, and the organic and AI results around it.

// contact - hire me on Upwork

Book a call on Upwork to get started. Tell me what's slow, broken or not ranking, and you'll get an honest read with a scope and a price, usually within a day. No forms, no pressure calls, no retainer traps. Everything runs through Upwork, so your payments and milestones stay protected.
