How I Work SEO without the mystery.

Most consultants make the process feel complicated on purpose. Here is exactly what happens from the first conversation to the monthly report -- what I do, what you get, and how long each stage takes.

Stage 1

What happens after I book a call with Dhruv?

After you book a call, we spend 30 minutes on Discovery. You talk about your business, goals, and what has or has not worked before. Dhruv asks about your current traffic, competitors you care about, and what a good outcome actually looks like for you -- not a traffic number, but a business result.

What you need to prepare: Nothing formal. If you have access to Google Search Console or Analytics, have it open. If not, that is fine too.

What you receive: A clear picture of whether SEO is the right investment for your situation right now, and if so, what direction makes sense.

Typical duration: 30 minutes.

Stage 2

What does an SEO audit actually cover?

An SEO audit covers three things: what is technically broken on your site, how your current content performs against what people are searching for, and where your competitors are winning that you are not. Dhruv goes through your site manually -- not just a tool export -- and flags what is worth fixing versus what can wait.

What you receive: A prioritised audit document. Not a 60-page PDF with 200 issues. A clear list of what to fix first and why, written in plain language.

Typical duration: 3-5 business days depending on site size.

Stage 3

How does Dhruv decide what SEO strategy to use?

The strategy comes directly out of the audit. There is no template. Dhruv builds a plan around your goals, your competition, and what your site can realistically rank for in a reasonable timeframe. This covers target keywords, content gaps, link building approach, and technical priorities -- in the order they should be executed.

What you receive: A written strategy document with a 3-6 month roadmap. You will see exactly what is being done and in what order, so nothing happens without you knowing why.

Typical duration: 2-4 days after the audit.

Stage 4

What does Dhruv actually do during execution?

Execution is where the work happens. Depending on what the strategy calls for, this includes on-page optimisation, content briefs or written content, technical fixes, internal linking, and backlink outreach. For agency clients, all work is delivered under your brand. For business owners and founders, everything is handled end to end.

What you need to do: Very little. If a piece of content needs your approval before going live, Dhruv sends it over. Otherwise, work runs without you needing to be involved day to day.

How often will we talk? You are connected on whatever platform works for you -- WhatsApp, email, Slack, wherever. Dhruv reaches out when there is something worth flagging. You do not get silence, and you do not get unnecessary check-ins.

Typical duration: Ongoing. Most projects run 3-12 months depending on goals.

Stage 5

What does a monthly SEO report from Dhruv look like?

Every month you receive a report that covers what moved, what did not, and what is next. No inflated metrics or vanity numbers. The report ties back to the goals set in Discovery -- rankings, traffic, leads, or whatever the actual measure of success is for your business.

What you receive: A clean monthly report. Real numbers, plain language, and a clear next step. If something is underperforming, that gets called out directly with a reason and a fix.

Typical duration: Delivered within the first week of each month.

FAQ

What do I need to prepare before hiring an SEO consultant?

You do not need to prepare much. Access to Google Search Console and Google Analytics is helpful but not required at the start. Dhruv will work with what is available and flag anything that needs to be set up.

How long before I see results from SEO?

Most sites see measurable movement in organic rankings within 60-90 days. Significant traffic growth typically takes 4-6 months. This depends on competition, site age, and how much needs to be fixed before growth can happen.

Do I need to be involved day to day?

No. Dhruv handles execution independently and updates you when there is something relevant. Most clients are involved in approvals and strategy reviews, not daily tasks.

What if I have never done SEO before?

That is the most common situation. Dhruv explains everything in plain language and handles the technical side entirely. You do not need any prior SEO knowledge.

Is there a contract or lock-in?

No lock-in contracts. Projects are scoped by what you actually need. If circumstances change, you are not locked into a retainer you cannot exit.
