The Experience

I have been doing SEO and translation work for 25 years. Long enough to remember when AltaVista was a serious competitor, when Google did not have a Spanish version, and when “multilingual SEO” meant translating your meta keywords. The work has changed. The principles have not. Today I help international businesses rank, communicate, and convert across markets they cannot fully see from the inside.
