Portfolio

Building domain authority in a B2B niche from zero to page 1

The Readz domain has page 1 rankings on multiple pain-point keywords. SEO strategy and execution from keyword research to writing articles, publishing and tagging was all done by me.

Ranking a new domain in B2C on page 1 keywords in less than 1 year.

This B2C domain was started and in less than 12 months I created some first page rankings. This was a testing ground for some Brian Dean tactics, and with little time and effort.
