SEO Services
I'm Mark Buraga, an independent SEO consultant of six years and the founder of Growth Engine PH. I work with founder-led businesses in the Philippines and internationally that need a reliable way to get found beyond referrals and paid ads. This is not an agency. You work directly with the person who does the work.
What you get
The broad SEO foundation, the AI-search visibility that earns citations, and an entry option if you want proof before you commit.
The model
For a decade, getting agency-scale SEO meant paying for a team of juniors you never spoke to. AI changed the math. The legwork that used to need that bench, keyword research, drafts, technical analysis, audits, now runs on AI systems under my direction. So you get senior strategy and agency-scale output without the agency overhead, and without your work being handed to someone you never meet.
You talk to the person doing the work. From the first call to the monthly report, you deal with me, not a rotating account team.
Pricing
Founder pricing
Engine is priced at a founder rate of $799/month, scoped and priced openly. Engine Pro is $1,499/month for double the scope.
Founding Client rate, $599/month. The first five clients lock $599/month for a full year in exchange for becoming a case study. After twelve months, the rate moves to the standard $799 founder rate.
No discovery call before you know the number. Full plan details are on the AI SEO services page.
Honesty gate
SEO compounds over months. It does not turn on overnight. If you need customers this week, paid ads are the honest answer and I will say so. If your platform cannot be edited or indexed, we fix that first or not at all. I would rather lose the engagement than take a retainer that will not work for you.
That filter is the whole point of hiring a consultant instead of a vendor.
Fit
Founder-led, growth-phase businesses where the owner still makes the call: local service businesses, online stores, and expert-led practices, in the Philippines and internationally. Being Philippines-based is the advantage. International clients get genuine SEO depth at a rate domestic agencies cannot match, and Philippine businesses get a partner who knows the local market cold.
