SEO or "search engine optimization" isn't some sort of mythical process. In fact, I pride myself on being able to leverage my ten years as an educator (I still teach digital marketing, SEO, and analytics at the University of Chicago every semester) to teach exactly what I'm doing in a fully transparent way.

It's been about business.

It's been about people like you.

By starting an ambitious project like this, I can give you my best, no matter where you're at in your business and career.

In SEO for the Rest of Us, I'm going to do everything I can to support the future of your business. Honestly, supporting businesses and families in this way is some of the most meaningful work I've ever done.

You, reading this, matter to me, and I hope the feeling is mutual.
