    About The Crawl Space Digital

    The Crawl Space Digital is built and led by Hanif Haroon — every guide, audit and strategy published here comes from the same practitioner doing the actual client work, not a generic agency process.

    I started this site to publish the kind of SEO writing I wished existed when I was learning: deep enough to be genuinely useful, without the padding most SEO content is built on.

    Evidence over opinion, systems over hacks

    Most SEO advice is either outdated best-practice folklore or a thin rewrite of someone else's thin rewrite. I try to write and work differently — every recommendation on this site is tied to something I've actually tested or observed directly with a client site, not repeated because it's what everyone else says.

    That shows up in how I work too: I focus on durable structural fixes over quick wins that decay, I explain technical concepts in plain language instead of hiding behind jargon, and I stay personally involved in every engagement rather than handing it off to a junior team once the contract is signed.

    How I work

    Evidence over opinion

    Recommendations are tied to data and testing, not trends.

    Systems, not hacks

    I focus on durable structural fixes, not quick wins that decay.

    Plain language

    Technical concepts explained clearly, without unnecessary jargon.

    Direct involvement

    I personally work on every engagement — no hand-off to juniors.

    The team behind The Crawl Space

    Small by design — every person on this list works directly on client engagements.
