About Me

Its all good and well having a passion for Online Maketing and Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) but am I any good? Well, I like to think so but I thought I'd better give you some background on my skills and experience.

After studying a BSc (hons) in multimedia computing I applied for a job as an
e-consultant for Unilever's European Headquarters (GIO-ES or Global Infrastructure Organisation - European Services). I worked as part of the i*net team which has some exceptionally talented and experience IT specialists. I worked on a large hosting migration project which had me working with many of the main Unilever Brands. I was almost the middle man between the marketing departments, the extenal design agencies and the "techie" team at GIO-ES. This enabled me to not only gain a mass of technical knowledge from website development, programming, hosting, security and everything else tachnical that came with it but it also enabled me to get close to the marketing and design side of things. I worked for Unilever for just under 3 years and decided to leave after being "poached" by a much smaller company based in Spain.

I moved to Spain to become the Web & Marketing manager for a well established estate agent. Here I had my own team of programmers, database admins, graphic & web designers. So apart from managing the team my time was heavily focused on SEO and Online Marketing. Luckily I had picked up a lot on the subject during my time at Unilever so this enabled me to start implementing what I had learned and to also keep up to date with ever changing methods and technologies. Within 3 months I had managed to get the website to the 1st page of Google for a massive number of keywords and in turn unique visitors to the site grew from 3,000 to 10,000 per month. However, property in Spain was big business and the competition was massive. I continued working as the Web & Marketing manager for 3 years and it was during this time that things really changed in the world of online marketing. Luckily I was at the forefront and managed to stay ahead of the competition.

On leaving the Estate Agents I decided it was time to start working for myself - a brave move but one I was prepared to take. I have been working as an Online Marketing Consultant/Specialist since the beginning of 2007 and have worked on many successful projects - all of which I can provide proof of success in relation to. Many of my clients I still do work for whether it be small projects or ongoing service and support. I am also a Google Certified Professional (Individual) which enables me to provide my clients the very best service when it comes to Google products such as Google Adwords®, Google Adsense® or Google Analytics® for example.

I believe in value for money and success when working on a project and because of this I am very thorough when it comes to the project proposal. I like to have clearly defined targets and I am a realist at heart. I will not commit to anything I do not think is possible.

Anyway - that's enough about me. If you do want to know more about my successes then I am more than happy to provide you with stats and results once we have discussed your potential requirements.
