            Why my work WORKS…

            Market research

            I do my homework on your brand, competitors, clients, policy, you name it. If you don’t acknowledge the list of macro marketing factors affecting your business, your online marketing strategy is doomed before it’s even begun.

            Small tweaks that make a BIG difference.

            I believe small changes can have a big impact in our work together. Be it in UX/UI, SEO or PPC, small tweaks can make all the difference. For example, I worked on a recent project with a Queensland-based Sports club looking to get more people online visibility and retain the traffic to their website. A short term solution included in my work delivered was a series of “quick win” steps that improved their site speed from 43/100 to 90/100 within a couple hours of work.

            Doing the hard yards for you.

            Do you want to be reading the 181 page “Search Quality Evaluator Guidelines”? No? Well you don’t have to because I have! I’ve also used them to deliver best practice work that has resulted in an average of over 500% increases in website traffic across my clients.

            Attention to the finer details.

            In the contemporary world of digital marketing and website design you need to prioritise a 100 things at once, you also need to make sure these 100 things work properly for your users. With mobile-responsiveness and accessibility key pillars of modern design, I test on different devices and dimension screens, and I leave no stone unturned to remove the risk of being penalised for non-compliance with the WCAG guidelines.

            Aligning authenticity with Google’s Alogrithm.

            There’s a misconception that you need to stuff keywords into a page so that Google’s page-crawlers rank you higher. The truth you need to remind yourself of is, you’re not writing your content for google (or at least I hope you’re not!) you’re writing for your clients, audience, people of similar interests, depending on business goals. With my work I prioritise authenticity, and gauging the purpose of the brand and combining with useful content your users want to see. It’s all about E-E-A-T.

            Enjoying the boring stuff.

            If i didn’t enjoy it, I wouldn’t do it. I’m up-to-date with the latest Mar-tech trends, what works, what doesn’t. It’s allowed me to work with companies of all shapes and sizes with a consistent level of satisfaction.

            Recommended tools

            Often marketers are met with volatile marketing budgets, that buck and change with the wind.

Whether you’re at the start of the year, have had a change in budget or scope, or just want to check your allocations, both trackers come with customisations and presets to guide you through your journey towards marketing success.
