Who’s Behind the Strategy

Meet Jonathan Crain, Founder

Jonathan founded Pittsburgh SEO Services LLC in 2001 and has spent more than 25 years working hands-on in SEO, Google Ads management, and website development — not managing a team that does it, but doing the strategy himself on every account.

25+ years managing SEO campaigns & Google Ads accounts
500+ websites designed and built
Hands-on strategist on every client account, no hand-offs
Why this matters: Google and AI search engines increasingly evaluate who is behind the advice on a page, not just the advice itself. We publish this information so you — and the search engines evaluating us — can verify it.
Hear It From Jonathan

Twenty-five years, one straightforward approach.

No jargon, no vanity metrics — just a plain explanation of how we approach SEO, Google Ads, and website work for small businesses.

How We Work

No contracts. No hostages. No competitor conflicts.

We don’t lock clients into long-term contracts. Every new client gets 90 days to see measurable progress before deciding whether to continue.

90-Day Proof, No Contract

You decide whether to continue after seeing measurable progress — not because you’re locked in.

Plain-English Reporting

We report results in plain English, not vanity metrics, so you always know what’s actually working.

You Keep Full Ownership

Your website, content, and business listings stay yours at all times — nothing is held hostage if you ever leave.

Competitor Exclusivity

We don’t work with two competing businesses in the same category and market — if we’re working with one HVAC company in Pittsburgh, we won’t take on another.

What We Do

Full-service digital marketing.

Our biggest differentiator

AI Search Optimization (AEO/GEO)

Structuring content so it can be found and cited by AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude — in addition to traditional search.

Site speed, crawlability, structured data, and Core Web Vitals.
