SEO strategy
Which pages bring in buyers, which ones are dead weight, and which two things to fix this quarter. A plan you can hand to your team.
Seattle, WA
Seattle SEO
SEO and AI search strategy for Seattle businesses that want a senior person on the work, not an account team.
I am in Portland, and that is fine
Diviner is a Portland shop. I am three hours down I-5 from Seattle. I will not pretend otherwise.
For SEO, it does not matter much. Google ranks your business on where it is, what it says, and who links to it. Where your consultant sits does not enter into it. Many of my clients are outside Portland already, and the work happens on calls and shared documents.
What you get is the person doing the thinking. Seattle has plenty of large agencies. If you want a dedicated project manager and a weekly status deck, one of them is a better fit. If you want senior strategy and someone who does the work, that is what I do.
Who this is for in Seattle
B2B and SaaS companies that need organic search to bring in pipeline, not just traffic. Professional services firms competing on credibility. Product brands that want to show up in ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews when people ask for a recommendation.
If you run a single storefront in Ballard and need the map pack, you can still hire me. But a local person who walks your street may serve you better, and I will say so.
What the work looks like
AI search
Content and structure that ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews can read, trust, and quote. It overlaps with SEO more than people expect.
Technical SEO
Crawling, indexing, site speed, structured data, and migrations. The boring problems that quietly cap your traffic. Boring is fixable.
Coaching your team
If you have in-house marketers, I can advise them instead of doing the work myself. Many Seattle companies need direction more than hands.

Seattle SEO questions
Do you come to Seattle?
When it is worth it, yes. A kickoff workshop or a strategy day in person can be useful. The ongoing work does not need it.
How much does it cost?
My rate is $130 an hour. I scope every engagement after a free consultation. Advisory work with your team costs less than a fully managed program, because your people do more of the work.
How long does SEO take?
Most clients see real ranking and traffic changes in six to twelve months, with gains building from there. Anyone promising results in 30 days should put it in writing.
Can you help with local SEO in Seattle?
Yes, the method is the same as anywhere. But for a single neighborhood storefront, a Seattle-based local specialist is sometimes the better choice. I will tell you honestly which one you need.
Want a second opinion on your SEO?
Send me your site and what you want search to do for you. I will tell you what is holding it back and whether I am the right person to fix it.
