What is White Label SEO?

White Label SEO (also called ghost SEO or private-label SEO) is when a specialized SEO consultant or agency delivers SEO work under another agency's brand. The end client never knows the work is outsourced. Ilias Sami operates as a ghost SEO partner for agencies, providing full NDA protection and branded reporting.

What is Topical Authority in SEO?

Topical authority is a search engine's assessment of how comprehensively a website covers a specific subject domain. Ilias Sami builds topical authority through structured content maps (150+ created) that identify and fill semantic gaps across all topic clusters relevant to a business.

What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?

GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is the practice of optimizing content to appear in AI-generated search responses from systems like Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and other LLMs. It involves structured data, entity clarity, E-E-A-T signals, and conversational content formatting.

How much does SEO consulting with Ilias Sami cost?

SEO services start from $750/month for the Full-Cycle Growth Partner retainer, and from $1,500 for a one-time Architecture Setup. The Agentic AI SEO Automation System build is $5,000 (one-time, beta). Custom proposals are available after a free consultation.

Does Ilias Sami work with international agencies?

Yes. Ilias Sami works remotely with agencies across North America (Canada, USA), Europe (Germany, UK), Middle East (UAE), and Asia. All engagements are fully remote and NDA-protected. Current partners include The Run Digital (Canada), Brandylane (Dubai), and DigiLeads (Germany).

The Human Algorithm

Beyond the Backlink

Based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, my journey into technology began in 2011 with a self-taught drive that evolved into a global SEO consultancy. Operating as a ghost partner, I protect agency NDAs while delivering enterprise-grade semantic SEO, topical mapping, and LLM optimization for clients across Canada, DRC, Dhaka, Dubai, Malaysia, and beyond.

My expertise exists at the intersection of technical architecture and human psychology. As a Growth Consultant, my core focus is Organic Growth and AI Search Optimization — AEO and GEO. I develop structured content plans and topical maps based on rigorous entity and competitor analysis.
