02 / The build
Heath Squier scopes, directs, and reviews every San Diego SEO engagement. No junior account managers learning on your traffic — the operator is on the account.
Local map-pack work for San Diego service businesses and ecommerce SEO for Shopify, BigCommerce, and headless stores — both run by the same team.
GA4 + GSC + revenue reporting. Every SEO decision ladders back to qualified leads or ecommerce orders — not a promised rank.
Core Web Vitals, schema (LocalBusiness, Product, FAQ, Article, Breadcrumb), crawl budget, internal linking, and SEO migration handled before any content sprint.
SEO insights inform Google Ads bidding, landing-page CRO, and content strategy — one shared growth model, not three siloed agencies.

Technical file / full scope
We treat SEO as a revenue channel — work tied to bookings, qualified leads, and ecommerce orders, not impressions on a dashboard. EVKII runs technical audits, local schema and Google Business Profile work, on-page optimization, internal linking architecture, ecommerce-specific patterns (collection page structure, product schema, faceted navigation), and content built around real buyer intent.
We work with Carlsbad, La Jolla, Encinitas, Del Mar, North County, downtown San Diego, and the broader Southern California market — plus nationwide clients who need a single team handling SEO alongside web design and follow-up systems. City-level Encinitas work lives on Encinitas SEO; foundation work is technical SEO.
Heath Squier is the founder of EVKII and the person who runs every San Diego SEO engagement. The live founder story is on the about page.
The person you meet on the discovery call is the same person deciding which technical fixes, local schema, and content clusters ship first. No hand-off to a junior account manager.
EVKII pairs technical SEO, keyword research, and a documented plan with on-page and content work a crawler and an answer engine can both read. Page structure, internal links, and service-area facts stay in one loop.

You work directly with Heath. Every San Diego SEO engagement is scoped with Heath, priced by Heath, and reviewed by Heath. Day-to-day execution is handled by EVKII's SEO and content team — there is no junior account manager sitting between you and the operator.
Technical foundations first — Core Web Vitals, schema, crawl, internal linking — then local SEO (Google Business Profile, citations, LocalBusiness schema), then on-page and content work tied to buyer intent. See how we work.
Price is scoped in writing after we see site size, competition, and whether the work is local-only or includes ecommerce. EVKII does not publish a one-size retainer or a ranking guarantee.
Technical and profile fixes can register first. Broader visibility depends on your market, your site, and what you already have live. We will not promise a day-count or a position.
Yes. Multi-site ecommerce operators in San Diego often need consolidated technical SEO, a canonical strategy across brands, and a content model that scales without cannibalization.
No. EVKII is based in Carlsbad and serves San Diego County first, plus nationwide clients. Local presence helps for on-site meetings; remote works for technical and content sprints.
Yes. 301 mapping, content preservation, schema continuity, and sitemap updates are part of a redesign engagement so existing visibility is not thrown away.
