Technical SEO Services

Technical SEO: engineering, not reports

Most SEO agencies sell reports. I sell engineering: the technical work that makes Google find you, index you, and show your pages properly — proven on my own products, not just promised.

Technical SEO is included in the €3,900 business website package, so you are not paying for it twice. SEO work on an existing site is quoted per project, fixed price within 48 hours — see the packages.

The receipts

My marketplace project Celina has 100+ prerendered SEO landing pages, indexed by Google and Yandex, with automated instant indexing (IndexNow) on every deploy and a complete conversion funnel in analytics. That entire setup — the one agencies charge monthly retainers for — is exactly what I build into your site.

That is not a portfolio screenshot. Celina is a marketplace I designed, built and still operate: it runs on a server I administer myself, with Docker and nginx, and every change reaches production through the same automated deploy. I am not telling you the setup is possible — I can point you at the address where it is running.

What technical SEO includes

Technical SEO here is not an advisory report you then have to find someone to implement. I do the work in the code, on the server and in Search Console, and afterwards I show you exactly what changed.

The order is deliberate: first make sure your pages can be reached and read, then make them fast. A page that never gets crawled gains nothing from a good load time.

Who it's for

Businesses whose website exists but doesn't get found; JavaScript-heavy sites invisible to crawlers; and new sites that want to launch indexed from day one instead of waiting months. If you're not sure which you are — send me your URL and I'll tell you honestly what's wrong and what it would cost to fix. That audit is free, and it stays free if the answer turns out to be that there is little worth fixing.

How the work runs

You send the URL, I go through the site myself — crawlability, indexing, speed, structure — and within 48 hours you have a fixed price for the repair. No hourly rate that creeps upward along the way, and no extra work that only becomes visible on the final invoice.

While the work is running you follow the changes on a staging link you can open yourself, so you are never waiting for a status email.

What it costs

In the €3,900 business website package this work is already included, so you don't pay for it twice. Work on a site that already exists is quoted per project, after I have seen what is actually wrong with it.

I reply to a message within 24 hours and the quote follows within 48. What is in that quote is what you pay.

What I don't sell

I don't sell rankings. Technical SEO decides whether your pages can be reached, read and loaded quickly; what you publish and which links you earn decide how high they climb. That second half is not something any developer can honestly promise, and I would rather say so now than invoice you for it later.

So I tell you plainly where my part ends and yours begins. It saves you money, and it saves us both a disappointment six months from now.

Frequently asked questions

How long does SEO take to show results?
Expect the first real movement in three to six months, longer in competitive markets. Indexing fixes land much faster — a page Google was ignoring can appear in search within days. Rankings are the slow part, because Google has to recrawl the improved pages and weigh them against competitors who are also working. Anyone promising position one by a fixed date is guessing.
What is the difference between technical SEO and content or backlinks?
Technical SEO makes your pages reachable, readable and fast for search engines; content and backlinks decide how high those pages then rank. I do the technical half — prerendering, structured data, Core Web Vitals, site architecture. Without it, good writing stays invisible. With it, every article you publish and every link you earn afterwards actually counts for something.
Can my existing website be fixed, or does it need rebuilding?
Most sites can be fixed. WordPress, Shopify and standard frameworks all respond well to technical work, and I would rather repair yours than sell you a rebuild you don't need. A rebuild only makes sense when the platform itself blocks the fix — a page builder that can't output clean markup, or a JavaScript app with no prerendering path. The free audit tells you which case you're in.
Is technical SEO a one-off project or a monthly retainer?
Mostly one-off. The infrastructure — sitemaps, structured data, prerendering, Core Web Vitals, Search Console — is built once and keeps working with no monthly fee. What is genuinely ongoing is content and monitoring, and you can do both yourself: I hand over the setup and show you how to read the numbers. If you'd rather I keep watching it, that's a separate arrangement, never a condition.
Do you work with clients in other countries, and how do you invoice?
Yes. I work remotely and in English, from Lisbon on Western European Time — the same working day as clients across Europe, with an afternoon that covers the US East Coast morning. You get an itemized invoice in euros. Where the site itself needs another language, it is delivered in that language, with hreflang configured so the versions rank instead of competing with each other.
What does SEO work on an existing site cost?
It depends on what is actually wrong, so I don't name a figure before I have looked at the site. You send the URL, I go through crawlability, indexing, speed and structure, and within 48 hours you have a fixed project price. I don't work on a running tab: the price in the quote is the price on the invoice. That first audit costs you nothing.
