Off-page SEO and digital PR. I get brands linked to, talked about, and cited. In Google, and in the models people now ask instead of Google.

Now

AEO & Online Reputation Specialist at Eneba

Based

Kaunas, Lithuania. Works remote.

Since

2020 in outreach and off-site SEO. Six companies, four of them scale-ups.

What moved

Six numbers I owned end to end. Each one is a link-building, outreach or AEO programme I ran or led.

One project, in detail

The client is under NDA, so here is everything about the work that is mine to share.

Client
Global B2C proxy provider, name under NDA
Market
Worldwide, high competition, heavily regulated
My remit
All off-site SEO: link acquisition, article placements, digital PR
Not my remit
Technical and on-page SEO, run by a partner agency
Timeframe
Target hit in 6 months, engagement ran 8
Result
$23,784 monthly organic revenue from near zero, 80,000 additional organic sessions, 410% programme ROI

The company was invisible in search. It did not rank for its own product names, the blog was not performing, and the site had no structure to speak of. On top of that it sells in a category that platforms and publishers treat with suspicion, which is precisely the part I was hired for.

My job was authority. I sourced and vetted the domains, negotiated and placed the articles, and built a backlink profile that could survive the scrutiny a grey-market category attracts. The technical rebuild, programmatic pages and content work ran in parallel on the agency side.

I am naming the split deliberately. Revenue on a project like this is never one person's number, and you should know exactly which part was mine before you interview me about it.

Track record

The stints before 2022 are short: I was 21 and working out which part of marketing I was good at. After that the pattern inverts, and every company gave me more rather than less.

Things I built myself

Company work is half the story. The other half is what I start on my own time.

2024–now

LinkPro, founder

A small off-page SEO practice I run outside full-time hours: link acquisition, article placements and digital PR for clients who need authority they cannot buy with ads. I run the outreach, vet every domain myself, and own the backlink profile across several client projects. It has never overlapped with an employer's market, and I keep it that way on purpose.

Owned all off-site SEO on the engagement that reached $23,784 in monthly organic revenue.

2026–now

LTH, co-founder and host

A YouTube channel built to get more Lithuanians actually racing. Plenty of people here own a wheel and never enter a race, so the channel gives them a reason to: races worth watching, drivers worth knowing, and a straight answer on how to get on the grid. I plan the content, write the scripts and present on camera, which is a deliberate second skill I am building alongside the search work.

0 to 700 subscribers and counting, in a language market of under three million people.

2023–2024

Fiestos, co-founder

An events marketplace that pulls every local event into one place, replaces the events section any website has to maintain with a calendar integration that needs no moderation, and lets people build a personal calendar from their location and interests.

0 to 9,000 users in 6 months, with no budget.

2022–2023

StatusArea, co-founder & CMO

A platform to unify status updates across a company, so product, engineering and design managers stop duplicating the same information between people, files and tools. Built evenings and weekends.

150+ user interviews booked at a 27% reply rate and 24% call rate, with people from Oracle, Stripe, Wix, Okta and GameStop. Won the Imaguru hackathon with the idea.

Ten tournaments, no budget

Six years of volunteering in Lithuanian esports. Brackets, admins, sponsors, players who all want an answer at once. It is where I learned to run outreach before it had a job title.

When the tool that would scale me does not exist, I build it with AI.

Studied

Marketing at Vilniaus Kolegija, University of Applied Sciences, 2021–2024. I did not graduate. By then I was leading off-site SEO for a team of four, and the job was teaching me faster than the coursework was.

Languages

Lithuanian, native. English, full professional.

If you need a brand to be the answer and not the tenth result, write.

Looking for

An AEO or organic growth role where AI search is the main job, not a side experiment.

Availability

Employed at Eneba and looking quietly, so please keep it between us. One month's notice. Remote, or on site in Kaunas and Vilnius.
