Rankings are nice.
Revenue is the point.

I've spent 14 years turning technical SEO into measurable growth — then taught the next generation to do the same.

The Credibility

Don't take my word for it. Take my track record.

These aren't services — they're proof. The agency I built, the school I founded, and the conference the industry flies in for. When I audit your site or build your system, this is the experience behind it.

The Story

From the trenches of search to the front of the room.

I've spent 14 years doing the work most people only talk about — auditing the technical guts of websites, untangling local search, and turning organic traffic into revenue businesses can count on.

Alongside my wife Elisabeth, I built Salterra into a veteran-owned agency known for one thing above all: accountability. No black boxes, no vanity metrics — just transparent process and leads you can trace.

But the part I'm proudest of is what I do with what I know. I turned it into SEO University to train the next wave, and SEOST to gather the best minds in the industry in one room annually.

Where I Go Deep

Most of my work lives in a handful of overlapping disciplines, and the writing goes further than any single page here — schema markup, answer-engine optimization, technical audits, local SEO, SEO by industry, consulting & strategy, custom CRM & systems, software development, speaking, and SEO & marketing training.

On Stage & In the Classroom

Teaching what's working — right now.

My keynotes and workshops skip the theory and the dated screenshots — everything I teach is being deployed in live campaigns this quarter. When a team wants to go deeper, I also teach it directly through SEO training and marketing training. Topics I'm known for:

Advanced Schema Markup · Technical SEO Audits · AI-Ready Content · Local SEO & Maps · E-E-A-T in Practice · Lead Tracking · WordPress at Scale · Affiliate Strategy
"I don't sell the dream — I hand you the steps. You leave with a plan, not a pile of notes." — How I work, every single time
