Hi, I'm Owais Ahmed Sheikh

Link building specialist and developer. I built SEO Readiness because I got burned placing backlinks on dead sites. I wanted a fast, free, honest way to check any domain before spending money on a link.

Why I Built This

In 2023, I was running a link building campaign and placed 12 links across sites that looked active on the surface: decent domain metrics, real content, good anchor text variety. Three months later, half of those sites were practically invisible in Google. No recent SERP indexing, stale sitemaps, dead RSS feeds.

I had spent money on links that Google wasn't paying attention to. The problem was I had no fast way to check whether Google was actively crawling a site before I built a link there. Existing tools focused on historical backlink data, not on real-time crawl activity.

So I built SEO Readiness. A Chrome extension that checks the signals I actually care about: when did Google last index this site? Is the sitemap fresh? Is the RSS feed active? Are there any spam patterns? All from a single popup, in under 30 seconds, with no paid APIs.

Core Belief
A backlink to a site that Google is actively crawling is worth 10× more than a link on a site that hasn't been indexed in 3 months, regardless of what any DA/DR metric says.

My Background

I've been doing SEO since 2019, with a focus on technical SEO and link building strategy. Over the years I've run campaigns for local businesses, SaaS products, e-commerce stores and affiliate sites. I've also built several Chrome extensions for SEO workflows: tools that work on the page you're already looking at, with zero API costs.

SEO Readiness started as a personal tool, a popup that gave me a quick gut-check on any prospective link site. When I showed it to a few people in the link building community, the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. So I polished it, added the bulk scanner, CSV export, and Pro tier, and released it publicly.

What I Stand For

  • Transparency: Every point in the score is explained. You see exactly why a site scored the way it did.
  • Zero external dependencies: No API calls. No subscription fees. No data ever leaves your browser.
  • Real signals over vanity metrics: DA and DR are fine, but they don't tell you if Google is crawling a site right now. SEO Readiness does.
  • Honest pricing: The free tier gives you 20 scans per day with the full scoring engine. Pro is $79/year. No upsells, no feature unlocking games.
