Named Among the Top SEO Consultants
in Los Angeles, 2026.

Featured by Digital Reference in their 2026 review of Los Angeles SEO talent — alongside a small group of consultants the editors recommend for technical depth and measurable outcomes.

The LA Market Reality

LA Buyers Are Searching.
Most Local Businesses Are Invisible.

Los Angeles is one of the most competitive service-business markets in the United States. Law firms, security services, healthcare staffing, real estate, professional services — every category has dozens of competitors paying for the same Google Ads keywords. The businesses winning right now built their organic visibility 12–18 months ago. The ones still renting traffic from Google Ads are paying 4× more per lead — and the moment they pause spend, the leads stop.

In LA, SEO is not optional. It is the difference between owning your market and renting attention from it.

Invisible in LA Search

Your LA competitors rank for the searches your buyers run. You don't.

Traffic That Doesn't Convert

Your site is built for browsing, not buying. Every bounce is a lead gone elsewhere.

Leads Fall Through

No CRM, no automation. Revenue leaks out, quietly, every week.

What I Build

One Integrated System. Three Components.

A website that ranks but doesn't convert is expensive. A website that converts but doesn't rank is invisible. Both are useless without follow-up that captures every lead. I build all three as one system.

01

Technical SEO & LA Local Search

Crawl architecture, schema, and local citations built to win LA search, the engine behind 700% growth in 90 days.

Outcome: Qualified LA traffic that doesn't stop when you pause ad spend.
02

Website & Conversion

Traffic without conversion is noise. I rebuild the path that turns a visitor into a lead, not a bounce.

Outcome: A website that turns LA visitors into enquiries on autopilot.
03

Revenue Operations

Most LA businesses lose 40–60% of leads to slow follow-up. I automate the layer that catches every one.

Outcome: A lead never falls through the cracks again.

Who Builds This

Not an Agency.
An Operator Serving LA.

Most LA agencies hand your account to a junior team and disappear the moment your contract renews. I've rebuilt the wreckage of those relationships more times than I can count.

I'm John Akande, Technical SEO and GEO specialist, and Co-Founder of BHSAI, an AI company in the $150B behavioral health market. I personally design and build every system: no outsourcing, no account managers, a limited number of engagements per quarter.

Before We Talk

Questions LA Businesses Ask First.

John Akande was named among the Top SEO Consultants in Los Angeles 2026 by Digital Reference. The recognition reflects technical SEO depth and revenue-driven outcomes — not just rankings. One LA client (Joint Power Security) compounded to $2M in attributed revenue over 18 months.
Most engagements run between $2,500 and $8,000 per month depending on scope and duration. I give a clear, honest scope after the free audit — before you commit to anything. If the numbers don't work for your current stage, I'll tell you that directly.
Technical and Core Web Vitals fixes often produce measurable results within 30–72 hours. Strategic SEO typically begins showing meaningful movement within 90 days, with compounding growth through months 3–12. Joint Power Security in LA saw 700% organic traffic growth in 90 days.
Yes. Los Angeles is a primary service area. The LA service economy — law firms, security services, healthcare staffing, real estate, professional services — is a strong fit for the technical SEO and conversion infrastructure I build. I take on a limited number of LA engagements per quarter.
Three things. I do the work myself — no junior team, no outsourcing. I build integrated systems, not isolated services. And I measure success in revenue impact, not traffic reports. If you want someone who sends you a dashboard every month and calls it done, I'm not the right person.
Yes to both. Every paid engagement is governed by a clear scope of work and service agreement. NDAs are standard for LA clients who require them — just flag it before we start.
Every engagement includes full conversion tracking setup before the first change is made — so there's a clear baseline to measure against. I report monthly on qualified leads generated, organic traffic from target keywords, and revenue attributed to SEO-driven inquiries. Rankings are a secondary metric. The primary metric is always business outcome.
