Testimonials

Lexi Miles Corrin CEO, Waxon
I worked with Rob while re-building / launching our website. When we first met, I had little to no knowledge of how to implement changes within our site that would improve customer conversion, reduce our bounce rate, and improve our SEO ranking. I walked away with the tools to not only improve our ranking but a much more complete understanding of how to monitor our performance and make changes that produce positive results.
Erin Bury CEO, Willful
Rob's SEO expertise is unparalleled, and he helps even a newbie understand the principles of SEO without feeling overwhelmed. He helps you understand the difference between on-page and off-page SEO; how to analyze keywords and make a keyword strategy; how to leverage content and landing pages to drive results; and ultimately helps you create a blueprint for your business. After implementing Rob's strategy and education, we were able to rank #1 for our top keywords within months - which never would have happened had we not learned from him. Highly recommend for any business owner who relies on search traffic to drive sales.
