👋 Meet Elaine

Elaine Bulawin Local SEO Expert Tucson AZElaine Bulawin

Hello! I’m Elaine Bulawin, founder of Desert Skies Local SEO, based in Tucson, Arizona. I relocated from California during the height of the pandemic, and my family quickly fell in love with Tucson’s warm community, rich cuisine, and breathtaking desert skies—hence the name Desert Skies.

I began by helping therapists navigate the shift to private-pay growth, and those same Google visibility strategies now help local service businesses build steady, high-intent leads.

“Elaine is an absolute pleasure to work with! She is very communicative, adaptable, always meets deadlines, and produces high-quality work. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for SEO and content support!”
