I'm Roman Daneghyan. I help Los Angeles companies figure out what to do about search, then make sure it gets done.
Most companies that come to me don't need more SEO activity. They need someone senior to look at the whole picture, tell them what's actually holding growth back, and set a plan their team or partners can execute. That's the job.
What I bring
I've spent my career on the operator side of search. I'm the founder and CEO of The Business Rover, an SEO and AI visibility agency with around 35 people. I built PromptRush, a platform that tracks how brands appear in ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. And I'm the CMO of Renderforest, so I deal with the same pressures in-house that my clients do: budgets, stakeholders, engineering backlogs and a board that wants results.
That combination is useful. I know what agencies can and can't do, what in-house teams actually have time for, and how AI search is changing which work matters.
A full review of your technical setup, content, authority and competitive position on Google, plus a baseline of how AI assistants describe you and your competitors. You get a prioritized plan, not a 200-page export.
For companies without a senior SEO lead, I act as your head of SEO on a part-time basis: setting strategy, prioritizing the roadmap, reviewing work from your team or vendors, and reporting to leadership.
Redesigns and platform moves are where companies lose years of rankings in a week. I plan the migration, review staging, and stay close through launch.
Working sessions with your in-house marketing, content and engineering teams so they make better SEO decisions without needing me in every meeting.
Through The Business Rover, I've led SEO and AI visibility work for companies including Picsart, Krisp, Sift, Aikido, 5WPR, EasyDMARC and Renderforest.

Strategy only matters if it ships. When a client needs hands-on execution, content, technical implementation, link building or AI visibility work, my agency team in Los Angeles handles it, scoped separately. Many clients work with me alone, some work with both, and some pair my strategy with their existing agency or in-house team. All three work.
A senior SEO hire in Los Angeles is expensive and slow to find, and a junior hire can't set strategy. A consultant gives you senior judgment now, at a fraction of the commitment, and helps you decide what to build in-house later.
The focus is different. A consultant sets direction, prioritizes and reviews. An agency executes at volume. Most growing companies need both at different times, and I'm set up to provide either.
It depends on scope. An audit is a fixed project. Fractional leadership is a monthly engagement based on hours and involvement. I'll give you a clear scope and price after an intro call. For the wider market, see SEO consultant rates in Los Angeles.
Yes. I'm based in Yerevan and work with LA clients remotely, and I travel to Los Angeles to meet clients.
Always. Every audit and every engagement covers how ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews describe your brand.
Yes. I often review and direct work from other agencies. My job is to get you results, not to replace your partners.
Thirty minutes. You describe the situation, I tell you what I'd do about it and whether I'm the right person to do it. No deck, no discovery process, no proposal you have to chase.
