Crafting Impactful Digital Strategies

Services

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

I approach SEO with a framework that starts with a technical audit to identify crawl issues, page speed, and mobile responsiveness. Once the technical foundation is solid I build a keyword map based on Dubai and UAE search intent, then create optimized landing pages that directly target revenue generating terms. Off page work focuses on high authority backlinks, local citations, and digital PR that improve trust signals. The goal is not just rankings, but consistent traffic that converts into leads.

SEM / Paid Ads PPC

Running ads is easy, running profitable campaigns is not. My PPC strategy starts with deep keyword research segmented by buyer intent, then structured campaigns with tightly themed ad groups to maximize Quality Score and reduce CPC. I build conversion focused landing pages to match the ad intent which increases relevance and lowers wasted spend. Every campaign is optimized weekly based on performance data, with negative keyword updates, ad copy testing, and bid adjustments to make sure each dirham delivers maximum return.

Social Media Marketing & Advertising

My social strategies combine organic and paid. On the organic side I map content pillars that speak to your customer’s journey from awareness to decision, making sure every post has a role in driving action. On the paid side I run precise audience targeting using interest layers, lookalike audiences, and retargeting flows. This ensures your brand stays in front of decision makers at the right time. For UAE clients, I adapt content formats to platform specific engagement, like Instagram reels, LinkedIn thought leadership posts, or TikTok short form content.

Email Marketing

Email is about segmentation and timing. I build customer journeys with tailored sequences: welcome flows for new leads, nurture flows for warm prospects, and re engagement flows for dormant customers. Every campaign is A/B tested for subject lines, CTAs, and design to improve open rates and click throughs. I rely on behavioral triggers like site visits, abandoned carts, or lead magnet downloads so emails land when prospects are most likely to act.

WhatsApp Marketing

WhatsApp is a high response channel in Dubai and the UAE, but it only works when it is done strategically. I create broadcast lists segmented by customer type, automate follow ups with pre built templates, and integrate WhatsApp with CRM systems for smooth lead management. The key is balancing automation with personalization so customers feel engaged rather than spammed.

Lead Generation

My lead generation systems are multi channel. I create optimized landing pages tied to PPC campaigns, use LinkedIn outreach combined with automated workflows, and build retargeting loops that bring back interested visitors. Every funnel is designed to qualify leads before they reach you so you spend less time chasing and more time closing. Tracking and scoring is built into the process so you always know which campaigns are feeding your pipeline.

Google Business Listing / Hyper-Local SEO

For Dubai and UAE businesses visibility in maps and local search is often more valuable than national rankings. I optimize your Google Business Profile with accurate data, service area targeting, and keyword enriched descriptions. Reviews are managed and encouraged through smart follow ups. I also build local citations and geo targeted landing pages that strengthen relevance. This helps you dominate “near me” searches and capture high intent local traffic.

Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO)

I use CRO frameworks that rely on both analytics and user behavior tracking. Heatmaps, session recordings, and funnel analysis help me pinpoint exactly where visitors drop off. Based on this data I redesign page layouts, streamline forms, and simplify navigation. Every change is tested with split testing so improvements are backed by data not assumptions. This ensures your existing traffic converts at the highest possible rate.

AI Marketing Workflow Automation

Automation saves time but only if the workflows are smart. I build AI powered sequences that connect lead capture forms, CRM systems, and email or WhatsApp follow ups. For example, a PPC lead filling a form can be instantly sent a personalized email, added to a WhatsApp drip, and flagged in your CRM for sales to follow up. These automations ensure no lead slips through the cracks and your pipeline moves faster without manual effort.

Web Analytics & Reporting

I set up tracking with Google Analytics 4, Tag Manager, and custom event triggers so you get clear visibility on conversions and user behavior. Dashboards are built in Google Data Studio or Looker Studio with real time reporting. Instead of vanity metrics I focus on KPIs like cost per lead, lifetime value, and ROI by channel. This gives you clarity on what is working and where to scale.

Website Development

I design and develop websites using no code and low code platforms like Webflow and WordPress. This allows me to build fast, responsive, and scalable sites without unnecessary complexity. Every website is structured around clear business goals whether it is capturing leads, showcasing services, or driving online sales.

I integrate SEO foundations, CRO principles, and analytics from the very beginning so the website is optimized for both visibility and conversions. With no code and low code development I can deliver professional websites faster while keeping them flexible and easy for clients to manage.

I Build User Centric Brands Since 2021.

About me

Hi, I’m Ismail Khan, a digital marketing specialist based in Dubai, UAE. I started my career in 2021 and since then, I’ve been fortunate to work on a wide range of marketing aspects across industries like SaaS, automobile, real estate, hospitality and finance. Over the years, I’ve grown into a full-stack marketer with hands-on experience in every key area of modern digital marketing including SEM, SEO, CRO, lead generation, lead nurturing, workflow automation, social media marketing, and email marketing.

What excites me most about digital marketing is the blend of creativity and analytics. I enjoy building strategies that are not just data driven but also customer centric, ensuring that every campaign delivers measurable growth and lasting impact. For example, I’ve managed campaigns that built a lead pipeline worth more than $350,000, improved conversion rates by 74% through optimized landing pages, and boosted search rankings from page 11 to the top 15 in just a few months.

I’ve also led go-to-market strategies, created scalable workflows with tools like Zapier, n8n and HubSpot, and managed multi-channel ad campaigns that directly contributed to millions in revenue. My background allows me to connect the dots between different marketing channels and craft strategies that work seamlessly from awareness to conversion.

I believe in constant learning, testing, and optimizing. Digital marketing is always evolving and I make it a point to stay ahead with new tools, technologies, and strategies. Beyond the technical side, I value collaboration, adaptability, and clear communication, which help me integrate easily into diverse teams and projects.

When I’m not working on campaigns, I enjoy exploring new tech trends, analyzing case studies, and sharpening my creative side through design tools.
