How I got here

Most SEO consultants came from marketing. I came from building things — literally. That engineering mindset shapes everything I do.

Engineering & Construction

2010 – 2018 · Malaysia & Qatar

Started as a project engineer managing construction projects including the GBP 765M Mall of Qatar. Earned an MSc in Engineering Project Management from the University of Leeds. Learned to plan complex work, manage stakeholders, and deliver under pressure — skills that transfer directly to SEO campaigns.

Digital Transformation at KLCC & Alliance Bank

2018 – 2022 · Kuala Lumpur

Moved into corporate digital transformation. At KLCC, I designed digital project dashboards that saved RM170K+ in costs and built internal platforms from scratch. At Alliance Bank, I led digital product development and delivered a loan moratorium app in 3 weeks during COVID. This is where I learned data infrastructure, analytics, and how technology drives business outcomes.

Digital Innovation at UEM Sunrise

2022 – 2024 · Kuala Lumpur

Led digital innovation initiatives for one of Malaysia's largest property developers. Managed vendor assessments, proofs of concept, and cross-departmental digital strategy. Deepened my understanding of how large Malaysian enterprises buy and adopt technology.

SEO Consulting — Full Time

2024 – Present · Malaysia

Took everything I knew about data, systems, and project management and applied it to search. Increased client organic traffic by 350%. Achieved 300% organic growth and 89% first-page keyword rankings within 90 days. Built seoconsultant.com.my and ranked it #1 for "SEO Consultant Malaysia."

How I work

Four principles from 13 years of building things that work.

Engineer's rigour, marketer's instinct

I don't guess. Every recommendation is backed by Search Console data, competitor analysis, and proven fundamentals. The engineering background means I think in systems, not tactics.

Quality over volume

I limit my client roster to 20 businesses max. Your success requires deep attention, not a junior account manager following a checklist. You work directly with me.

Transparency by default

No black-box SEO. You get full visibility into what I'm doing, why I'm doing it, and what the data says. Monthly reporting with real numbers, not vanity metrics.

Long-term compounding

SEO is a 6-12 month investment that builds sustainable organic traffic. I'm here for the long haul, adapting strategies as Google evolves and your business grows. No lock-in contracts.

Industries I've worked across

From B2B services to property development, each industry has taught me something different about how Malaysians search and buy.

ISO Consulting Recruitment SaaS & Tech Law Firms Real Estate Manufacturing Financial Services Healthcare Construction Automotive Education Property Development

"I approach SEO the same way I approached engineering projects — with a plan, a timeline, clear deliverables, and no guesswork."
