Technical Support & Search Optimization

• Conduct structural on-page search engine optimization (SEO), tweaking metadata, header tags, image alt properties, and sitemaps.
• Investigate script conflicts, formatting bugs, and hosting bottlenecks, coordinating directly with external server providers for fast resolution.
