SEO Expert
Looking to tap in to the skills of an SEO expert? If so, feel free to contact me, Marios Alexandrou, using this form. My colleagues and I have been involved with search engine optimization for many years. In bringing our experience to the table you'll be able to take advantage of knowledge that can come only from working with many industries and with websites of many sizes.
Why hire me? Because...
I'm a search engine optimization professional working for a search engine marketing agency in Manhattan. My interest in computers and technology goes back many years -- my parents bought me my first computer when I was 5. At that time, personal computers had all of 16K (yes, kilobytes) of memory. A computer science degree and various web development jobs later I found myself pulled into the world of SEO. I can't complain, I like it here.
This is where I post many of my thoughts and opinions about the SEM space. I tend to focus on the organic search side of things, but there's a bit here about social media as well as paid search.
In 2009 I spoke at SES Toronto on the new relevancy factors that search engineers are and will be looking at. There are a few write-ups of my presentation:
- Signals: What Relevancy Indicators are Search Engineers Watching for Today? SES Toronto Day 1 by Paul Teitelman of Search Engine People
- Are You Using Your Signals? They're What Search Engines are Looking For. by Paul Marek of Tech Vibes
- Liveblogging SES Toronto: What Relevancy Indicators Are Search Engineers Watching for Today. by Agustin Vazquez-Levi of NVI Solutions

I've been fortunate that my writings have attracted the attention of others in the industry include those shown below:
Unless you have deep pockets and are willing to spend large amounts of money on TV and print advertising, your options for promoting your website are limited. However, one extremely cost-effective way to increase traffic to your site and therefore increase sales is through the use of search engine optimization (SEO).
Briefly, SEO is a collection of best practices that change your site in sometimes subtle ways to improve the likelihood that it will appear in the top 10 results returned by a search engine such as Google, Yahoo, and MSN. The top 10 figure is important because research has shown that most search engine users don't go beyond the first page of 10 results when looking for something.
I have worked on large, existing sites such as Reader's Digest (rd.com), high-profile, new sites such as Every Day with Rachael Ray (rachaelraymag.com), and smaller sites such as the one you're looking at now. As an example, here's a snapshot of the increase in traffic to this site from month to month.
My goal is provide you with search engine optimization services that allow you to concentrate on running your business. I don't require or expect you to be tied down with creating your meta tags or even knowing what meta tags are! I'll handle it all for you while keeping you in the loop.
As part of this service, I'll produce search engine inclusion and ranking reports for you. These reports will allow you to see the effectiveness of my efforts as well as help fine-tune future optimizations.
And no I don't consider myself the greatest living seo, but I've written over 200 articles about SEO and SEM that I hope you'll find entertaining and informative.
I can give your business the edge to grow and leave your competition behind. Whether you're in my home state of New York or somewhere else in North American, contact me and let's get to work on increasing the traffic to your website.
