My SEO journey.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It was around 2006, I owned a portrait studio and wanted to build an online store to sell amazing products that artists were creating to showcase photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That experience resulted in a website I hated and an urge to do it all on my own. A few months later I had built my first website, called I Love Photo Gifts, using Zencart. Just a few short months later after taking an online course that little website was ranking on page 1 for super competitive terms like “photo gifts” – and was featured in Businessweek magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is when the addiction to SEO started. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The timing could not be better. By 2008 the market crashed, the studio was struggling and I was ready to move on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SEO here I come. <\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

In 2009 I officially launched 2dogsdesign.com which I ran and operated until I decided to sell it in 2021.

In August 2021 I landed a job as an SEO Director with another digital agency called Stratabeat.

Yeah, I know why sell one agency to work for another?

But I had the chance to work with some amazing enterprise brands and took my skills to a whole new level. I left there in November 2022 to go back to doing freelance.

And here I am, waiting to help you scale!

I continue to buy, sell, and run websites in a variety of niches and look
forward to using those sites to improve my skills and test new theories!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
