Increase Your Website’s Visibility

SEO Geek specializes in executing successful search engine marketing campaigns with the aim of increasing your company’s revenue. We achieve this through advanced ranking tactics, the latest technological innovations, and extensive knowledge of Google’s algorithm updates. Our link building services are the result of years of intensive research and meticulous testing. SEO Geek constantly monitors the latest search engine trends to stay ahead of the competition and save you valuable time. All this enables us to offer by far the best search engine optimization services in the Benelux. Due to the scale of our operations, it is possible to offer this cutting-edge service at an affordable price.

SEO Geek guarantees three things:

  • Greatly improved search engine results
  • Increased revenue
  • Lasting rankings

We guarantee solid, stable top positions that any other SEO company can only dream of. SEO Geek operates in accordance with the guidelines of Google and Matt Cutts, the former head of the Google webspam team. Consequently, SEO Geek’s work will result not only in immediate top rankings but also in lasting improvements. SEO Geek only uses methods that add value to the internet. This ensures that the activities we perform for you now will still bear fruit in several years. SEO Geek’s services have already achieved first-page results for hundreds of previous clients. There is no better testimonial than this: ‘More than 90% of our revenue comes from referrals.’ SEO Geek is not only for individual webmasters and SMEs; search engine optimization agencies also regularly order link building packages from us. We provide white-label reporting, meaning: no annoying branding, logos, or taglines that reveal the origin. Besides the spectacular results, SEO Geek is most loved for its simplicity: You order a link building package, pay, provide your URL & keywords you want to rank for, and we do the rest.

Overview of Services

SEO Geek offers multiple services. Firstly, there is a customized service. This is an ‘autopilot’ service where we do all the work and report back monthly. The service is fully tailored to the client and industry. Romano will apply his entire arsenal of SEO techniques to get your website as high as possible in the search engines. Furthermore, on-page SEO optimization will be improved to make the site itself search engine friendly. Unfortunately, there are only 6 places available per year for this service due to the time-intensive nature of the personalized campaign. Additionally, we offer consultancy. Here, the client’s website undergoes a thorough audit to identify where site optimization can be further improved. The client then receives a report containing all proposed SEO adjustments, strategies, and other online marketing methods to reach more potential consumers. For those who already have some experience and for other search engine optimization agencies, we offer link building packages. An essential part of any SEO campaign is content marketing. We also offer this component separately, consisting of text & copywriting. Since almost no universities have included search engine marketing in their curriculum, we also offer training & coaching. Other services requested from time to time include: SEO-friendly web design, setting up a webshop, online reputation management, website load time optimization, conversion optimization, and PPC campaign optimization.

But what exactly is the added value of hiring an SME SEO specialist compared to a traditional internet agency? Romano lives, eats, drinks, sleeps, and breathes search engine optimization. However, he also studied International Business Administration at Erasmus University Rotterdam and has a passion for traveling as a digital nomad and giving presentations at conferences. Romano strives to combine the best of all these interests. This results in progressive search engine optimization that achieves superior results for your website. Technical feats are great, but Romano always seeks to link this to recognizable results for your business, such as Return on Investment, visitor numbers, and sales. Additionally, Romano is committed to ensuring clients learn from the services. He does this by translating the difficult terms and acronyms prevalent in the world of search engine marketing into plain English. It also helps to make the service as transparent as possible, so the client fully understands every step of our process and can review it in clear reporting. The documentation thus helps to understand and measure progress. Finally, Romano, and therefore SEO Geek as a whole, places the highest value on integrity. We are so confident in the value of the work we do that we only take on clients we believe we can help to be successful. If we believe we cannot help you achieve your specific goals, we will tell you and refund the purchase amount.

You might also ask: Is it not better to work with a traditional internet agency? My answer is that this can be fine, if you enjoy paying for someone else’s company MacBook Pro and are satisfied with outdated methodology. Romano believes in a minimalist lifestyle and strives to reduce costs in all aspects of his life; he is a geek; he can’t help it… For that reason, SEO Geek is always critical of the suppliers we deal with; we only settle for hosting providers, domain registration agencies, and template designers that offer the best value. Our goal is always to keep the price down, not allow it to increase as with some other SEO experts in the Netherlands. To date, we have never increased the price for a client; in a few cases, we have even lowered the monthly contribution. On the other hand, it is certainly tempting to outsource to the third world, as costs are even lower there. My problem with the work these types of people usually deliver is that it is primarily about quantity, not quality. You often see it on websites like Fiverr, where thousands of links are promised for just 5 dollars. We are certainly not against outsourcing; in fact, it is highly recommended to leave simple, repetitive, and tedious work to others, but this does not apply to search engine optimization, a highly complex field that brings together science and art. Furthermore, we assume your business is dear to you; do you really want to run the risk of a Google penalty that would almost certainly ruin your website? Such link building agencies work for low wages and deliver many links; the results can be quite good in the short term, but eventually, it catches up with you, just like a bodybuilder taking steroids for years or an accountant ‘cooking the books’; it’s not worth it. With both internet agencies and low-wage workers, you are just a number; they are compensated per hour or per quantity of links; in reality, they don’t much care whether your business flourishes or not. In our opinion, these types of impersonal relationships lead to the ‘cowboy behavior’ increasingly seen in the field of search engine optimization, which is difficult for laypeople to understand, comparable to the banking world. We prefer to keep it personal; you can always reach Romano via email, Skype, or other channels, and when results are disappointing, we are never too proud to work unpaid overtime.

The 5 Values of the SEO Geek Philosophy

By continuously adhering to five fundamental values, SEO Geek is confident that it offers the best search engine optimization services in the Benelux.

1. Discovering, refining, and implementing the best techniques, strategies, and methods. SEO Geek is constantly searching for better ways to achieve results. This is done by staying up to date with all aspects of search engine optimization, developing new tactics, and experimenting with test websites. Our clients have an edge over the competition, especially in the Dutch market.

2. Personal attention, soul, and passion for the campaigns. SEO Geek only takes on a few holistic SEO campaigns per year and consciously chooses not to advertise its link building packages in the media. We do this to provide personal attention to our clients’ campaigns.

3. SEO as easy, simple, and user-friendly as possible. You provide your website name, URLs, and most important details, and we do the rest. This gives you more time to do things that are truly important to you, whether that’s watching the latest season of Dexter or spending more time with your family. SEO Geek ensures you don’t have to pull all-nighters to stay informed about all the latest SEO news and apply it to your website.

4. Sustainability. SEO Geek will always strive to carry out its activities as sustainably as possible. We aim to add value to the internet at all times. No mass spam campaigns that only clutter the internet. This allows us to guarantee that the services SEO Geek performs for you will yield lasting results, manifesting in higher visitor numbers or revenue years after SEO Geek has applied its magic.

5. Meaningful, significant, and relevant improvements. Elite SEO strategies, ingenious link structures, and advanced tactics are all well and good, but SEO Geek always tries to link this back to tangible and recognizable results for your business, such as Return on Investment, visitor numbers, and sales.

Professional Search Engine Optimization
