I’m Stephen, I live in Metro-west Orlando with my fiance, Mary (a brilliant graphic artist). I have 15 years of SEO experience and have worked mostly on lead generation in some of the most saturated and competitive industries like:
- Insurance
- Manufacturing & Products
- Education
- Independent News
- Photography
- Construction; All the Skilled Trades
My formative SEO years came when I lived in Boston MetroWest, a notoriously tough Local SEO market that gave birth to some of the best SEO’s in the business. I still have clients in the Boston area market and they are all on page 1 of their target phrases. 🙂 (2018)
Some current work:
- Career Now Brands, Director of SEO
- Weber Design Group, Consultant, technical specialist
- Pure Air Conditioning, Consultant, web design & management, tech specialist
- Premier Pest Management, Consultant, web design & management, tech specialist
- More, I’m tired of typing.
I’m an SEO expert but my experience allows me to build an optimized, responsive site from the ground up. I specialize in:
- Organic SEO
- Local Search
- Markup Remediation(fixing existing code)
- Section 508 Accessibility
- Social Planning & Management
My work enables clients to reach more of their target markets through search engines & social media.
When I apply my methods to Local SEO the results are relatively quick and long lasting. When I apply my methods to non local queries (without the city name included) the results take longer but have always been just as pronounced.
One thing I’ve learned through my experience is that some things, without a doubt, help a website become more findable. Maybe not number 1, but ‘in the mix’. Most of these ‘things’ are omissions made by the original web designer not checking his or her work. So, If you care more about increases in sales generated by focused consumer queries than increases in random bot traffic from 10,000 unnecessary back-links, you are on the right website.

I’ve used Stephen’s services a number of times over the last couple years and he’s always been excellent. Quick responses, good prices, and a pleasure to work with.
Thanks Brad! It’s easy to make those pics look good though, I just try to stay out of the way. :).
I have exclusively utilized Stephen’s SEO services for the last 6 months or so… what a DIFFERENCE!!! My web traffic is up several hundred percent!!! I am getting 1st page search engine results!!! I couldn’t be a bigger advocate of Stephen’s services – great rates, expert at all things SEO, and he does what he says – a man of integrity.
Thanks so much Tyler! You’ve been great to work with.

Everyone should check out MR. Foster’s most recent Insurance site. Since he posted this his old company was acquired. 🙂 :p I think I changed the links everywhere I reference on this site but…

I am fortunate to have met and worked with Stephen for a little over a year now. Not only did he do a superb job in both creating and optimizing my website (www.quickshelf.com)…but anytime I make a change request, it is typically completed within 24 hrs! I sort of feel like I am getting the best of both worlds…A) Quality work that you would expect from a regular staffed company & B) Speed, efficiency, and pricing that is not obtainable through such a company, but rather a highly experienced individual operating under little overhead. He charges a low monthly rate and in many instances goes beyond his terms and requirements to assist me in various tasks such e-commerce setup and integration, such as providing a head start in populating the shopping cart software with several sellable items in every listed category. This makes/made it a much easier task from my end knowing that I just needed to continue what he already started.
Joe is one of my Fav past clients. I no longer work with him but not due to any bad feelings. If you find my linkedin you’ll see the other review from him there. My prices went up very substantially over time. That website is still the one I built years ago, however. Seems the new company likes to claim others work hahaha. I hope they claim the current SEO results too!

it was on page 1 of “buy shelves” and “shelving system” and “shelving for garage” etc when I worked on it.
