A strategist, not a generalist

I am Amila Welengoda, an independent digital marketing strategist with over 18 years of hands-on experience helping businesses grow their online presence. I work directly with founders, marketing teams, and e-commerce brands who want clear thinking, not agency jargon.

My work sits at the intersection of traditional search engine optimisation and the rapidly evolving world of AI-powered discovery. I do not outsource or delegate your account. You get me, applying deep expertise to your specific challenge.

Based in the UK and working globally, I understand what it takes to build sustainable visibility in competitive markets.

SEO depth

Technical, on-page, and off-page optimisation built on real data, not guesswork.

GEO expertise

Optimising your brand for ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and AI Overviews.

Paid media

Google, Meta, and Instagram ads managed for measurable ROI, not vanity metrics.

Clear reporting

Plain-English dashboards that show what is working and what to do next.

Focused expertise
across every
digital channel

Every service I offer is delivered as a bespoke engagement, tailored to your market, audience, and goals. No cookie-cutter packages. No account managers who have never touched a campaign. Just focused, strategic work that moves the needle.

SEO & GEO Audit

A thorough audit of your website’s technical health, content quality, backlink profile, and AI search visibility. Identifies exactly where you are losing traffic and what to prioritise to recover it. Covers ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Perplexity, and other large language models.

SEO & GEO Retainer

Ongoing monthly work to grow and maintain your search visibility. Delivered in focused three-month packages with clear milestones. Covers traditional SEO alongside generative engine optimisation so your brand appears in both standard search results and AI-generated answers.

AI Search Optimisation

Dedicated strategy to ensure your brand is cited, recommended, and trusted by AI platforms. Covers entity building, structured data, authority content, and the signals that influence LLM responses. Future-proof your visibility as AI reshapes how people discover businesses.

Google, Meta & Instagram Ads

Paid media campaigns built for measurable return. From Google Search and Performance Max to Meta and Instagram, I create, manage, and optimise ads that reach the right audience at the right moment without wasted spend.

Digital Marketing Audit

A strategic review of your entire digital marketing activity. Covers SEO, paid media, social, email, and content to identify gaps, quick wins, and long-term opportunities. Ideal for businesses entering a new phase of growth or refreshing a stale strategy.

Content & Authority Strategy

Research-led content planning that builds topical authority for both search engines and AI models. From pillar pages and supporting articles to digital PR and link acquisition, this service positions you as the trusted source in your niche.

A clear process,
every time

01

Discovery

I begin with a thorough understanding of your business, market, competitors, and goals. No assumptions, no templates.

02

Audit & analysis

A data-driven review of your current digital presence to establish a baseline and identify the highest-value opportunities.

03

Strategy & execution

A clear, prioritised plan delivered with precision. I handle implementation or work alongside your in-house team.

04

Report & refine

Regular plain-English reporting with actionable insights. Strategy evolves as results and the market develop.

What clients say

Real feedback from founders, directors and business leaders who have worked directly with me. No agency intermediaries, no outsourced results — just focused expertise and honest outcomes.

Amila transformed our search visibility in under three months. We went from page three to consistently ranking on page one for our most competitive terms. The results have been transformational for our leads pipeline.

Unlike agencies we had worked with before, Amila actually explains what she is doing and why. The audit alone was worth every penny. We had clarity about our marketing for the first time in years.

We were invisible in AI search results. Within six months on the GEO retainer, ChatGPT and Perplexity are regularly recommending our services to users. The shift has been remarkable.
