About
Head of SEO · 4.6 years
I am Head of SEO at Titan Casket, a U.S. e-commerce and insurance company where I own organic growth end-to-end across four digital properties.
Before Titan, I scaled Marriage.com to 6M monthly visits at ProProfs, and led SEO for fifteen brands at New Vision Digital.
The work I am proudest of is what most SEOs avoid: ranking page 1, position 1 for "casket" on Google, a commercial keyword owned by century-old incumbents.
I do SEO. But really, I help small teams win categories that belong to larger ones.
Now in Berlin, studying at HWR Berlin (Hochschule für Wirtschaft und Recht), with a PG Certificate from IIM Nagpur. Looking for Werkstudent positions in SEO, organic growth, or content strategy. Up to 20 hrs/week during semester, 40 during breaks. Senior experience at Werkstudent rates, with a clear path to full-time after graduation.
Impact
Four-and-a-half years. Three companies. Four domains at Titan alone. Everything below is verifiable in GA4, GSC, or Ahrefs.

Hero case · signature story
"Casket" is a high-commercial-intent keyword in a $25B U.S. market dominated by a handful of century-old incumbents. Ranking #1 for it is the kind of win that communicates, in one number, what a senior SEO is actually for.
Funeral commerce in the United States is a $25B market run by a handful of incumbent brands. Commercial keywords like "casket," "buy casket online," and "affordable casket" were locked down by competitors we could not outspend.
They win by reading the SERP more honestly than anyone else and rebuilding from the search intent outward. I rebuilt PDP copy, meta structure, schema, internal linking, and page speed as a single connected system, not a checklist.
Topic-cluster architecture across TitanCasket.com, Pets.TitanCasket.com, and TitanConcierge.com. Rewrote 500 Shopify PDPs for intent match. Fixed Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP) to unlock indexing budget. Earned backlinks through editorial outreach. Implemented AI Overviews strategy using MUVERA principles.
100 other competitive commercial keywords reached Top-3. Organic revenue became a predictable growth pillar for the company. Full case study available on request.

Case study · what I built
TitanConcierge.com and Titan Insurance were built by me on Webflow, from information architecture and CMS setup to SEO framework and technical implementation. This is the work that separates "SEO person" from "person who builds organic growth engines."
A concierge-service product in the funeral-commerce ecosystem. Built the full site on Webflow from scratch.
Life insurance is among the hardest SEO categories in the U.S. The category brings heavy regulation, well-funded incumbents, and a high E-E-A-T bar. I designed and built the initiative's SEO foundation.
Garvita has applied the same analytical framework beyond traditional e-commerce optimization into more ambiguous and highly competitive categories such as life insurance, where success requires identifying differentiated market positioning against large, well-funded incumbents.Josh SiegelCo-Founder & COO, Titan Casket
Case study · content engine at scale
A relationship-advice site plateauing at scale. The problem was not volume. It was the gap between keyword mapping and editorial planning. I built a framework that ran as a factory: brief to snippet-winning draft in five measurable gates.
How I think
Six principles I apply to every page, every site, every category, from caskets to life insurance. The stack is named after the AI Overviews strategy it was designed to win.
Every page is built around one dominant search intent. No compromise briefs.
I read the SERP before writing the brief. The user's vocabulary sets the outline.
The answer deserves to rank. If it does not, the brief goes back.
Experience, expertise, authoritativeness, trust. Shown, not claimed.
Topical authority is architecture. Clusters, pillars, interlinking. Not a pile of articles.
Links follow value. I do not chase. I earn.
