I want your business.— Russ, who said it

Some people call me a Louisville SEO expert.

I'd never put it on a business card. But people type it into Google, so here's the evidence — including the parts that have nothing to do with SEO.

A map of it

Every Louisville SEO expert says they're local. Here is mine, plotted.

Schools, neighborhoods I've lived in, places I worked, parks I run in, and the bar. Roughly positioned, honestly labelled.

The case for the word

Experience, expertise, authority, trust.

Experience · the placeBorn here. Never really left.St. Matthews Elementary (spelling bee champion, fourth grade — the first search-adjacent skill I ever had). Highland Middle, in the band. Atherton High: track, soccer, basketball, football, class vice president, homecoming prince freshman year, and later the Atherton Hall of Fame. Once the youngest person to run the Mini Marathon. Played for the JASA Jazz and won a state championship I genuinely cannot name, because I was a child.
Experience · the workFifteen years, nearly every vertical.University of Louisville. Then Creative Alliance, the Learning House (now Wiley), and Leap. Helped Mortenson Dental Partners scale to 150+ locations across 8 brands, with Business Profile calls up 99% in a year. Home services, healthcare, e-commerce, restaurants, nonprofits, bourbon, bands.
Expertise+85% clicks across every site we manage.72 to 79 managed sites, year over year, up another 15% through two Google spam updates. 709 keywords in 90 days on a site that had never set up Search Console. #3 inside the LLMs for a category. Every one of those has a screenshot on this site.
Authority30+ agencies quietly resell my work.You may have read a report I wrote without knowing it. I also publish the method: 43 posts, a 122-term glossary, and the full six-step strategy, free.
TrustZero manual actions in fifteen years.Not on a client site, not on my own. Prices on one page, month-to-month terms, and a case study about an engagement that didn't work.
The rest of itFrisbee, French, and a rap career.Ultimate Frisbee at U of L, then good enough to coach and organize a community around it. I speak French. I've played shows at nearly every venue in this town except Headliners. The Hall of Fame thing is for the frisbee, the rapping and the marketing — in that order, probably.

The honest part

"Expert" is a word people search, not a qualification anyone issues. There's no exam. I'm not currently Google certified in anything — I have been, and certificates expire while the work doesn't.

So judge it like you'd judge anyone: ask what they did last month, ask for the number, and ask what didn't work. If a Louisville SEO expert can't name a loss, they're either new or managing you.

I live here. I answer my own phone. Here's the actual service, here's a free audit, and here's me, long hair and all.

Available right now.

Need it today? Call and I might do it right then. Same work, same price, wherever you are.

Goes straight to me, not a sequence. Usually same-day reply. Prefer the phone? (502) 963-7305
