Why visibility matters
Having a website is good. Being found is better.
A website is only worth the visitors it attracts. SEO puts your business in front of customers when they search for exactly what you sell.
SEO goes far beyond rankings: it’s about publishing useful content, building a strong brand image and earning lasting traffic that doesn’t stop when the ad budget runs out.
With several years of experience in the DRC and certifications from Google, Semrush and HubSpot, I adapt SEO best practices to the local market: mobile searches, still-low competition in many industries, and the weight of Google Maps.

Local SEO
Local SEO: own your neighborhood
For a business in Kinshasa, Lubumbashi or Goma, local SEO is often the most profitable lever. When someone searches for “pharmacy near me” or “garage Limete,” Google first shows a map with three businesses.
I create and optimize your Google Business Profile (hours, photos, categories), list you in local directories and set up a simple way to collect customer reviews. The result: you show up right where your customers decide.

Frequently asked questions
SEO: your questions
How much does SEO support cost?
We almost always start with a $1,000 audit and strategy. The monthly retainer then ranges from $500 to $2,500 depending on your goals; at $850 a month, for example, we publish 4 to 5 articles and 4 quality links.
How long does SEO take to deliver results?
The first gains often show up after two to three months, with solid results between four and six months. Unlike advertising, the rankings you earn keep paying off afterward.
What’s the difference between SEO and Google Ads?
SEO works on Google’s free results over the long term; Google Ads buys ad placements right away, paid per click. The two complement each other very well.
Is local SEO worth it for a small business?
Yes, it’s often the most profitable lever: a well-optimized Google profile and customer reviews are enough to appear on the map when people search for a service nearby.
Can you guarantee the top spot on Google?
No one can honestly guarantee it, because Google alone decides its rankings. What I guarantee is a proven method, transparent work and monthly tracking of your rankings and traffic.
