I remember sitting across from the Nifty Shop founder in a small Gulshan cafe. He’d just shown me his analytics dashboard. Flat line for six months. Meanwhile, his Facebook ad budget was burning through 40,000 taka monthly with conversions that made him wince every time he checked the numbers. Three months later, his organic sessions … Read more
Three months into MIT Plus, I was refreshing Google Analytics at 2 AM. Again. The number glared back: 2,400 monthly visitors. Respectable, right? Except the average session lasted 83 seconds. Bounce rate sat at 76%. Zero newsletter signups that week. The site wasn’t connecting. It was a digital ghost town with foot traffic but no … Read more
A founder staring at their marketing dashboard at 2 AM, watching traffic numbers climb while revenue stays flat. They’ve hired three agencies, tested countless “proven strategies,” and burned through $40K with nothing but vanity metrics to show for it. That was MIT Plus before we worked together. Three months later, we’d turned their 1.2% conversion … Read more
Last March, an e-commerce founder messaged me at 1:47 AM. “We’re ranking number three for our primary keyword, but revenue’s down 22% this quarter. What am I missing?” I pulled his Search Console data the next morning. The problem wasn’t rankings. His pages ranked for informational queries when he needed commercial buyers. Three days and … Read more
Last year, I spoke with an e-commerce founder who showed me eight months of beautiful SEO reports. Keyword rankings were climbing. Backlink counts looked impressive. Domain authority scores were trending up. But here’s what wasn’t moving: revenue. His monthly sales stayed stubbornly flat at around $18,000 while he paid $3,500 monthly for those gorgeous reports … Read more
I was staring at MIT Plus’s analytics dashboard at morning, watching something that made my stomach drop. Traffic had climbed 180% in three months. Beautiful charts, impressive growth curves. But conversions? Flat as a pancake. That’s when it hit me. We’d been chasing the wrong metric. All that organic traffic growth meant nothing if visitors … Read more
Three years ago, I sat at my desk in Dhaka past midnight, staring at Google Analytics showing 347 monthly sessions for MIT Plus. We had solid client work, a clear value proposition, and exactly zero organic visibility. I’d spent weeks perfecting our service pages while competitors with worse offerings dominated page one. That frustration, that … Read more
It was midnight when I checked the dashboard for the third time that night. Conversion rate: 1.2%. Same as yesterday. Same as last week. The website looked beautiful. The content was there. But the numbers? Frozen. I’ve sat in that exact spot too many times, watching founders pour money into pretty websites that generate exactly … Read more
A Dhaka e-commerce founder came to me last year after burning through half a million taka with an agency that promised “guaranteed viral growth.” Their traffic was up, sure. Sales? Zero percent increase. Just dashboards full of vanity metrics and jargon-filled reports that explained nothing. I’ve seen this story play out dozens of times across … Read more
Picture a startup founder in Gulshan, scrolling through generic “SEO expert in Bangladesh” pages at 2 AM. They’ve been burned by agencies that promise “best results” but deliver vague reports and vanity metrics. They type “Mehedi Dhaka” looking for someone different—a digital strategist who actually shows their work, not just talks about it. That uncertainty … Read more
