No account managers. No junior handoffs. You work directly with the person doing the thinking.
I spent years working in and around agencies and saw the same pattern too often: the client became a list of deliverables. Complete the agreed work, keep delivery costs down, send the report and move on.
I built Stijg Media differently.
I work directly with every client because good SEO is rarely just an SEO problem. A ranking issue can be caused by the way a website is built. Strong traffic can be wasted by a weak conversion path. And technically sound pages can still fail when they don’t answer what customers are actually looking for.
My background across web design, web development and SEO lets me look at the whole system, find the actual bottleneck, and work on what is most likely to make a difference rather than passing the problem between departments.
You don’t explain your business to a salesperson and hope the important details reach the person actually doing the work.
SEO strategy, technical implementation and website changes stay connected.
The goal isn’t to complete deliverables. It’s to improve the parts of search visibility that can actually bring you more business.
Real clients. Specific results.
“Adriaan was so knowledgable and thorough in his evaluation, plan, and action of getting more eyes on my business. He knows what he is talking about and I have already seen the results after just one week of the changes. For example, I have received multiple calls from people tell me that AI recommended me as the best couples therapist in my city. Now those are results!!!”
“We have used Stijg Media for SEO and strategic advice on web content for over three years to help build our brand. Adriaan and his team have done amazing work providing steady guidance to help drive business growth. We went from page 8 to page 1 in six months and have stayed there ever since.”
“Adriaan with Stijg Media has been incredible to work with. I am currently working with him to get my small pest control business off the ground through promotion and other services such as website building/optimization and I've seen an uptick in website traffic and calls since. His effort and attention to detail is top notch!”
“Adriaan at Stijg Media has been excellent to work with. He’s incredibly knowledgeable about SEO and consistently brings thoughtful, strategic ideas to the table. What really sets him apart is his ability to execute—he doesn’t just recommend, he implements effectively and on a timely basis. He’s proactive, responsive, and results-driven. I’m looking forward to continuing to work with him.”
“Adriaan and Stijg Media has been a trusted partner of ours for the past 6 years! Adriaan is extremely proficient at SEO (technical, on-page, and off-page SEO), and website development. It's rare that you find someone who is both a web developer and SEO expert. Highly recommend!”
“Being an online business owner of a very competitive niche: HeirPros, it was difficult to find a reliable provider for AI SEO. So I was extremely happy to find Stijg Media who continues to do a wonderful job. I'm looking forward to many more years of success with them. Great work!”

Find the opportunity. Fix what matters. Measure whether it worked.
I map the Google searches and AI prompts your buyers use, who currently wins them, and where your business is being overlooked.
The work is prioritized around likely business impact rather than how many issues I can put in an audit spreadsheet.
Because I work across SEO and web development, many changes can be implemented directly instead of disappearing into a developer backlog.
Search engines and AI systems don’t judge your business only by what you say about yourself.
We use what changed to decide what gets scaled, improved or dropped next.
Search isn’t a one-off project. Each cycle gives us better information for the next one.
Questions worth answering before you spend another dollar on search.
Check my Google & AI visibilityUsually both. Google search and AI recommendations increasingly overlap, but they are not the same thing. I look at where your customers search, how your business currently appears, and which gaps matter most before deciding where to focus.
No. Nobody credible can guarantee either. Search and AI systems change constantly and recommendation outputs can vary. What I can do is identify the factors holding back your visibility, improve the signals we can influence, and measure whether those changes are moving you in the right direction.
I start with a consistent set of commercially relevant prompts and queries, record whether your business is mentioned or recommended, which sources appear, and which competitors are being surfaced instead.
We rerun the same query set over time so we can compare visibility under consistent conditions.
It depends on the starting point, competition and the problems we uncover. Some changes can move quickly; competitive SEO usually takes longer. I’d rather show you what is realistic for your situation than sell you a made-up timeline.
Not necessarily. Because I work across SEO, web development and site structure, I can usually tell whether the website itself is the bottleneck or whether targeted changes will do the job.
A full rebuild is only worth doing if it actually solves the problem.
You’ll get a monthly update showing what was completed, what changed in performance and what I’m prioritizing next.
Depending on the campaign, we track rankings, traffic, calls, leads and AI-search visibility.
Established businesses with a proven product or service, enough margin to justify the investment, and a genuine opportunity to grow through search.
If SEO is unlikely to make economic sense for your business, I’d rather tell you before we start.
No. Engagements are month to month.
