THE WORKSHOP · SERVICES

So, what kind of trouble
are we getting into?

A technical mystery. A marketing problem. A complicated system. Or an idea nobody's quite figured out yet. Bring it to the workbench.

Find your doorway

WHAT BRINGS YOU HERE?

Not every problem arrives with a label.

🐇 Rabbit's first question: “What do we know, and what are we only guessing?”

Sometimes there's a clear problem to fix. Other times there's a strange pattern, a decision nobody wants to make without better information, or an ambitious idea looking for a starting point.

I'm William Rock. My work combines technical SEO, digital marketing, research, analytics and practical technology. I start by understanding what you're trying to accomplish, what the evidence shows, and what we still need to learn.

Pick the doorway that sounds most familiar. We can figure out the rest together.

FIVE DOORWAYS · ONE WORKSHOP

Where should we start?

These aren't rigid service packages. They're useful ways to describe the problems we can investigate and the work we can do.

DOOR 01 / INVESTIGATE

Something Isn't Adding Up.

The numbers look strange. The website behaves unexpectedly. Something changed—and the explanation doesn't quite fit.

I investigate technical SEO, crawling and indexing, analytics and tracking discrepancies, duplicate content, canonical signals, unexplained search changes and competing explanations. We follow the evidence before deciding what needs fixing.

The useful result: A clear explanation of what we've verified, what remains uncertain and which next steps are worth taking.

DOOR 02 / TUNE UP

The Marketing Machine Needs a Tune-Up.

Your campaigns are running, your content is out there, but you'd like to know whether everything is working together.

I work across SEO, paid search, campaign structure, keyword intent, content opportunities, landing pages and measurement. That might mean identifying waste, improving relevance, cleaning up a confusing account or finding the next worthwhile opportunity.

The useful result: More intentional marketing decisions, supported by evidence and tied to what the business is trying to achieve.

DOOR 03 / UNTANGLE

It's More Complicated Than It Looks.

Multiple countries. Multiple websites. Different languages, products, teams and technologies. And one change could affect everything else.

I help untangle international website architecture, migrations, redirects, regional search considerations, hreflang and canonicalization, content models, product availability and the dependencies between connected systems.

The useful result: A practical plan that respects the moving parts, protects what already works and makes the next decision easier.

DOOR 04 / UNDERSTAND

Turn the Noise Into Intelligence.

There's plenty of information. What you need is a clearer picture of what it actually means.

I research markets, competitors, search demand, industries and digital opportunities. I organize findings into readable intelligence reports, evidence-backed recommendations and useful dashboards—with sources, confidence and unknowns kept visible.

The useful result: Less time sorting through information and more clarity about the opportunities, risks and questions that deserve attention.

DOOR 05 / EXPERIMENT

What If We Built Something?

You have an unusual idea, a stubborn manual process, or a tool you wish existed. Good. Let's find out what it would take.

I explore practical AI applications, research workflows, automation, knowledge systems, custom HTML tools, prototypes and repeatable reporting experiences. The point isn't to use new technology for its own sake. It's to solve a real problem, test the result and make it maintainable.

The useful result: A sensible proof of concept, implementation direction or working tool—based on what's appropriate for the challenge.

HOW WE WORK TOGETHER

Bring the problem. Bring the strange idea.

Bring the thing nobody has quite figured out. I'll bring curiosity, experience and a healthy respect for the evidence.

We can start with one well-defined question or explore a larger challenge. I won't recommend a sprawling project when a smaller investigation will do.

We'll look at what's known, what needs checking and what a useful next step could be. If it makes sense to go further, we'll figure out the scope together.
