About Behnam Dehghan — Digital Marketer & Web Developer
Hi, I’m Behnam — Ben to many of my clients. I’m a digital marketer, web designer and web developer based in Greater Vancouver, British Columbia, with 14 years of experience helping businesses get found online and turn visitors into customers.
I started out writing code and building websites, then moved deeper into SEO, Google Ads and digital strategy. That combination is still what makes my work different: I understand how a site is built, how Google ranks it and how a campaign turns a search into a sale — so nothing gets lost between a developer, a designer and a marketing agency.
What I do today
I’m the founder of ADSEO Digital Marketing Agency, a Metro Vancouver agency helping local businesses with SEO, web design, Google Ads and social media. ADSEO is where my team and I take on larger projects; this site is my personal home for guides, my background and direct consultations.
Since 2022 I’ve worked in British Columbia as a Digital Marketing Specialist at Angels Heating and Cooling, responsible for the company’s IT and digital marketing — its website, SEO, Google Ads and online presence. Alongside that role, I help small and growing businesses across Metro Vancouver and beyond with:
- SEO — technical, on-page, content and local SEO
- Google Ads — campaigns built around conversions and profit
- Digital marketing — strategy across search, social and email
- Web design and UI/UX
- Web development — WordPress and custom websites
- IT support — hosting, email, security and troubleshooting
