About Harshad Ghodke – SEO Freelancer in Melbourne

I’m Harshad Ghodke, a Melbourne-based SEO freelancer with over 18 years of experience helping businesses grow through Google Search. From startups to national brands, I’ve worked with businesses across Australia and globally — delivering results without fluff, jargon, or lock-in contracts.

What I Do

I specialise in technical SEO, local SEO, on-page optimisation, and semantic strategies aligned with how Google crawls and indexes websites today. My strategies are built on:

Search intent and topical authority
E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trust)
Entity-based SEO and schema markup
Google-compliant crawl behaviour and indexability

Whether you’re a local service provider or a large eCommerce brand, I tailor your SEO strategy to get real, measurable results.

Why I Work Solo

I don’t run an agency — I work directly with every client. No middle layers. That means:

Fast and clear communication
Work done by me, not outsourced
Custom strategies instead of generic SEO packages
Limited client load to ensure focus and long-term success

My SEO Philosophy

SEO in 2025 is about far more than keywords. To rank and stay ranked, your site needs:

Topic clustering and semantic structure
Optimised Core Web Vitals
Schema implementation for structured data
Strong internal linking and crawl paths
Local signals via Google Business and reviews

Who I’ve Worked With

Some of the well-known Australian brands I’ve worked with include:

✅ Coles Express – Local SEO and store-level visibility improvements
✅ Target – On-site technical SEO and content optimisation
✅ Mazda – National-level search strategy consulting
✅ Forty Winks – SEO audits and structured data implementation
✅ Australian Computer Society – Organic visibility and content strategy support

I approach each project with a deep understanding of technical and strategic needs, ensuring tailored solutions — not cookie-cutter plans.

Based in Melbourne, Working Australia-Wide

While I’m based in Melbourne, I work with businesses across Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and regional Australia. I understand the local competition landscape and how to build national SEO authority from a Melbourne base.
