What I do

Three areas where I help ecommerce and retail brands move the numbers that matter: traffic quality, conversion, and return on spend.

Ecommerce & Shopify Growth

When traffic is fine but revenue isn't, the problem is usually further down the funnel. I work on the pages and flows where buying decisions actually happen (product, category, cart, checkout) and the tracking underneath so you can see what's working.

  • Shopify and ecommerce audits
  • Product, category, and checkout optimisation
  • Landing page testing and CRO
  • Tracking, pixels, and measurement setup

SEO & Organic Growth

Rankings don't pay the bills, qualified traffic does. I build SEO programmes that prioritise the pages, queries, and markets tied to revenue, with the technical foundation to support them in Arabic and English.

  • Technical SEO and site health audits
  • Indexation, crawlability, and structured data
  • Arabic and English content strategy
  • International SEO, hreflang, and localisation

Paid Media & Performance

Most paid accounts are spending in the wrong places, not because the channels are broken, but because the measurement is. I tighten tracking, rebuild the funnel view, and shift budget toward what's actually driving return.

  • Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, and paid social
  • ROAS, CAC, CPC, and funnel performance analysis
  • Audience strategy and budget reallocation
  • Creative testing and landing page alignment

Selected work across SEO, paid media, ecommerce, and conversion optimisation.

A bit about me

I'm an ecommerce and digital growth consultant with 10+ years across SEO, paid media, analytics, CRO, and full-funnel strategy. I've worked with luxury retail, ecommerce, automotive, fintech, healthcare, education, and service brands — helping teams improve traffic quality, conversion, revenue, and marketing efficiency.

My work sits between strategy and execution. I audit the full digital journey, pinpoint what's blocking growth, and partner with product, engineering, CRM, content, and agency teams to ship the improvements that matter.
