nice to meet you

Hi, I’mUsman Ali

Founder & CEO, GrowAndRank

I’m Usman Ali, founder and CEO of GrowAndRank, a software engineer who still writes the code. Since 2018 I’ve shipped Shopify stores, SaaS products and full-stack web apps worldwide. Now I build for businesses around the world, and you deal with me directly.

the founder’s story

From freelancer
to founder

I taught myself to code in 2018 and took my first paid work on Fiverr soon after: landing pages, WordPress fixes, small online stores. Upwork came next, with bigger clients, longer projects and the habit of answering every message fast.

Along the way I moved from front-end to full stack, built SaaS platforms with international agencies, and became the developer clients called for Shopify and Next.js. GrowAndRank is that same way of working, grown into a studio.

Why we exist

We started GrowAndRank because small businesses kept telling us the same story: a designer made something pretty, a developer made it work, an SEO person was hired later to make it findable, and nobody talked to each other.

So we do all of it as one team. The person who designs your home page sits with the person who writes your schema and the person who sets up your server. Decisions are made once, with the whole picture in view.

We work remotely with clients across the world, over Zoom, email and Instagram. You always talk to the people doing the work.

What we stand for

  • React
  • Next.js
  • Node.js
  • Express
  • MongoDB
  • TypeScript
  • Tailwind CSS
  • PostgreSQL
  • GraphQL
  • Prisma
  • Redis
  • Vite
  • Shopify
  • WordPress
  • WooCommerce
  • Stripe
  • Figma
  • Framer
  • Vercel
  • Docker
  • GitHub Actions
  • Cloudflare
  • Google Cloud
  • DigitalOcean
  • GoDaddy
  • Namecheap
  • Google Analytics
  • Google Search Console
  • Meta
  • Zapier

We don’t do templates. One small team designs, writes, builds and tunes every site, so nothing gets lost and nothing ships until it’s fast.
