Oxford ELLT Level 7 LMQ Level 5 โ€“ UK LMQ Level 4 โ€“ UK BS Computer Science UAE Work Permit EQF Recognised

I'm a Digital Marketing Specialist and SEO Expert with over 7 years of combined experience spanning Bahrain, the UAE, and the UK. I blend technical expertise with creative strategy to deliver measurable results for businesses worldwide.

My journey started in computer science, giving me a deep understanding of the web's technical foundations. This, combined with UK-accredited accounting qualifications (LMQ Level 4 & 5), means I understand both the technical and business side of digital growth.

Currently working remotely as a Freelance Marketing Specialist for Rise Core Digital Ltd (UK), I help businesses rank higher, reach wider audiences, and convert visitors into customers through proven SEO and digital marketing strategies.

30-day results guarantee. If you don't see measurable improvement in your keyword rankings or organic traffic within the first 30 days, I'll work an extra month at no charge โ€” no questions asked.
Frequently asked questions
How long before I see SEO results? โ–พ
Most clients see measurable improvements in keyword rankings within 30โ€“60 days. Significant organic traffic growth typically happens in months 2โ€“4. SEO is a long-term investment โ€” the results compound over time.
Do you work with UK businesses specifically? โ–พ
Yes โ€” I work remotely with UK clients full-time through Rise Core Digital Ltd. My Oxford ELLT Level 7 English certification means zero communication friction. All reports, calls, and emails are in professional UK English.
Can I cancel anytime? โ–พ
Yes. All monthly packages are cancel-anytime with 30 days notice. There are no long-term contracts or lock-in fees. I believe in earning your business every month through results.
What makes you different from a UK-based SEO agency? โ–พ
Computer Science degree (technical depth), UK accounting qualifications (I speak ROI), and 7+ years across Pakistan, UAE, and UK. Senior-level expertise at a fraction of London agency prices.
Do prices include VAT? โ–พ
All prices shown are exclusive of VAT. As an international freelancer based in Bahrain, I do not charge UK VAT on services under the reverse charge mechanism. Confirmed at invoice stage.
Need something custom?
E-commerce, enterprise clients, specific industries โ€” I'll put together a bespoke proposal within 24 hours. No obligation, no pressure.

// What sets me apart

The Unusual Edge

Most digital marketers know marketing. I built my foundation on computer science, UK-accredited accounting, and three international markets โ€” then applied all of it to SEO. Here's what that combination actually delivers for your business.

๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ
CS graduate doing SEO
I don't outsource the technical fixes โ€” I diagnose crawl budgets, JavaScript rendering issues, and Core Web Vitals myself. A BS in Computer Science means I speak the same language as your developers and fix problems at the root.
Extremely rare combination
๐Ÿ“Š
Accountant-level ROI thinking
UK-accredited LMQ Level 4 & 5 accounting qualifications mean I can frame SEO as a CFO-level investment โ€” cost-per-acquisition, lifetime value, measurable return on spend. Not just traffic charts.
Almost unheard of in marketing
๐ŸŒ
Tested across 3 markets
Bahrain, UAE (UAE Ministry of HR work permit), and UK remote work. I understand how business cultures differ and how digital strategies need to adapt โ€” not from theory, but from real professional experience.
Multi-market experience
๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ
Oxford ELLT Level 7 English
C1-level English certified by Oxford ELLT means zero friction with UK clients โ€” on calls, in reports, in outreach emails. Your clients read professional, polished English at every touchpoint.
Oxford-certified ยท C1 level
Knowledge map โ€” tap to explore
Five domains, one practitioner โ€” see how they combine into advantages most competitors simply can't replicate
Core profession

SEO and digital marketing sit at the centre โ€” but what makes this combination unusual is that every other domain feeds directly into it. Technical depth from CS. Financial fluency from accounting. Cultural adaptability from international work. Communication quality from certified English. The result is a practitioner who delivers end-to-end without gaps or outsourcing.

Ehsan ranked our restaurant on the first page of Google in under 2 months. We went from zero online presence to getting daily bookings through organic search. He explained every step clearly โ€” we always knew what was happening and why.

I was skeptical about working with someone remotely, but Ehsan's communication is impeccable. He delivered 30 quality backlinks in a week, all real websites with real traffic. Our domain authority improved noticeably within the month.
