I started playing with computers back in second grade… maybe 83 or 84. My parents brought home a computer called a Texas Instruments TI-99. I remember looking through the manual in our house in New Jersey and learning how to write very simple programs in BASIC. The first one that really succeeded made the screen color cycle randomly and made the computer look like it was fried. My parents stared in disbelief as I canceled the endless loop and showed them how I did it.
Later, in 1986 my dad brought home an IBM PC/XT. This monster had a 4.77MHZ processor but had the math co-processor option that made it faster. It also had two floppy drives and a COLOR monitor! Whenever I wasn’t in the woods I was playing with this machine. I would have it completely messed up so it wouldn’t even boot and I would only have until my dad got home from work to fix it… before I died. So, I learned to work on computers under some serious pressure. I didn’t always succeed in fixing the computer and my dad would be furious with me. I’ve come a long way since I first started playing with computers and I tell ya, they are in my blood.
I’ve worked as a network admin, email admin, server admin, I’ve built many computers and servers, configured many networks, pulled miles of network wire, and dealt with over a dozen different programming languages. I’ve dealt with oldies like BASIC, FORTRAN, and Pascal, and on up to current languages like .net, HTML, Java, ASP, and others.
I’ve been an SEO since 1997. The industry really got started in 1996 but was very disconnected and unorganized. The first real boom of the web saw the industry get more organized and mainstream. Us SEOs came out from behind the shadows and into the light. Now SEO is a major chunk of most advertising budgets.
I’ve marketed over 400 websites on the web selling almost everything you can think of. I’ve written thousands of pages of content, dug through miles and miles of code, and driven revenue in the millions of dollars. I’ve been trusted with major campaigns which you can read about on the home page.
