I got into SEO in 2013. I've been through small agencies, large agencies, and 8 years and 8 months at Romania's largest e-commerce company — where I saw what it means to do SEO at scale, with real stakes.

Now I build SEO/GEO/AEO systems with AI agents — not an audit delivered once every 6 months, but an engine that keeps working.

Questions about the author

What's worth knowing about the person behind the articles and AIRank's services.

Dragoș Mihai Drăgoi is the founder of AIRank, a GEO/AEO consultancy from Romania. He has worked in SEO since 2013: through small and large agencies, then 8 years and 8 months as Lead Technical SEO Architect at eMAG, Romania's largest e-commerce company. He now builds SEO/GEO/AEO systems with AI agents, and does the strategy, audit and implementation work himself, with no intermediaries.

At eMAG he was the sole owner of the SEO infrastructure: indexing, canonicals, schema, redirects and internal linking, across every language variant, for over 10 million URLs. He caught two major incidents — a site-wide noindex in 2018 and a parametric-URL flood in 2020 — with no impact on organic traffic. The same approach sits behind AIRank's services.

He can't publish internal figures, KPIs or traffic results from eMAG: his employment contract includes a confidentiality clause, which he respects strictly. He can only state the class of problem and the scale he worked at. For proof with numbers, AIRank relies on public experiments on its own sites and anonymized client cases, not on a former employer's data.
