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 Ghost 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).

Client Delivery

Reddit SEO Intern

Help client brands earn genuine visibility inside Reddit — the platform now regularly outranks brand pages in Google's AI Overviews and answer-engine results.

Internship Remote — async-friendly, any timezone with reasonable overlap Entry-level / student or recent grad Client Delivery

Reddit threads increasingly out-cite brand pages inside Google's AI Overviews, AI Mode, and Perplexity — especially for "best X" and "is X worth it" style queries, the exact queries AEO work is built to win. For several white-label clients on this desk, a single well-earned, non-promotional Reddit presence moves AI-citation share faster than months of on-site content alone. This internship exists to build and run that motion properly: ethically, subreddit-by-subreddit, never as spam or astroturfing.

The Work

What you'll do

Monitor relevant subreddits across client verticals for genuine discussion opportunities — never mass-posting or astroturfing
Track which client-relevant queries surface Reddit threads in Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, and Perplexity, and report the pattern
Map the subreddit communities relevant to each client vertical: audience, tone, moderation norms, and which existing threads already carry authority
Draft (and, once trusted, post) genuinely useful, non-promotional contributions that build durable entity presence over time
Run light competitor Reddit-presence audits per client
Log findings in a shared tracker and contribute a section to weekly client reporting
Learn and apply the agency's entity/topical-mapping methodology to Reddit specifically, under direct review

Requirements

What we need

A genuinely active, fluent Reddit user — you understand subreddit culture, karma norms, and what gets a post removed before you post it
Strong written English that can be helpful without reading as promotional
Comfortable with basic SEO concepts, or a fast learner willing to pick them up — training is provided
Detail-oriented enough to follow a research and reporting process consistently, unsupervised
Reliable async communicator — this is a remote, deliverable-driven role, not a desk-time one

Nice to Have

Bonus points

Prior SEO, content, or community-management experience
Familiarity with how AI Overviews / answer engines select and cite sources
Comfortable working inside a shared spreadsheet or Airtable-style tracking workflow
