This was my first US-based freelance project for SEO and website development. The client operates two websites:
Project: Epic Private Chef Miami & Epicureans of Florida
Website Migration & SEO Optimization
Epicureans of Florida was initially a custom-coded website. Since I had to manage both design and SEO, I recommended migrating it to WordPress for better flexibility. With the help of the clientβs previous developer, the transition was completed within a week.
However, due to Google Ads-related issues, the client advised not to make any major changes until January. As a result, my primary focus was on optimizing Epic Private Chef Miami for SEO. I have started this project in Sep’2024.
