Comprehensive SEO Optimization

I’m looking to raise my site’s visibility in search engines. The priority is SEO, with equal attention on keyword research, on-page optimization and an ethical backlink-building strategy.

I already have a working list of target keywords; you can refine it, expand it where necessary and then weave the final set naturally into titles, meta descriptions, headers and content. From there, I’d like to see technical on-page improvements (schema markup, internal linking, image alt-text, clean URLs, etc.) followed by a solid outreach plan to secure high-quality backlinks that match the site’s niche.

Deliverables I need:
• Polished keyword list with search intent mapped
• Updated on-page elements implemented (or a clear implementation document if you can’t access the CMS)
• Backlink acquisition plan plus the first wave of links with metrics for each source
• Brief performance report outlining the changes and next-step recommendations

Please outline your proposed approach, the main tools you prefer to use (Ahrefs, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, Surfer, etc.), and an estimated timeline for each milestone.
