I'm Elya Sokol, an SEO expert and CTO at Finial SEO. I run the full SEO cycle: from technical audits, Core Web Vitals and structured data to content strategy and SEO process automation.
My career in technical SEO began with web development: with a degree in computer science, I worked as a full-stack developer for several years before realizing that my skills were a perfect fit for SEO — a field where technical depth directly affects a site's visibility in search.
I believe the foundation of any successful SEO campaign is a flawless technical base. I built my own Core Web Vitals audit framework that not only surfaces issues but also prioritizes fixes by their impact on business metrics.
Under my leadership, the Finial SEO team built internal tools to automate routine tasks: SERP parsing, ranking-change monitoring, bulk structured-data validation and technical audit generation. All work is grounded in the agency's engineering methodology: white-hat methods, ICE hypothesis prioritization, Google E-E-A-T alignment, plus optimization for AI-driven search (GEO / AEO).
