Testimonials

Over my near near 25 years’ experience I have had the pleasure of working with a range of wonderful clients. Some of them have been kind enough to leave me some testimonials on LinkedIn, of which I have shared a selection of recent ones below.

"I've had the privilege of collaborating with Chris on numerous client projects over the years, and he has consistently proven himself to be an exceptional SEO professional. His depth of knowledge and meticulous attention to detail have been invaluable assets to our team.

What sets Chris apart is his responsiveness and thoughtful approach to every challenge. When faced with complex projects, particularly website migrations, his strategic guidance has been instrumental in achieving seamless transitions while maintaining strong search performance. A notable example of this was a new website for Stonehouse Process Safety which saw a 50% increase of organic traffic in the 3 months since launch.

As well as just being a thoroughly nice guy, Chris brings a wealth of experience to the table and delivers work of the highest quality. His ability to navigate intricate SEO landscapes and provide clear, actionable recommendations has helped our clients achieve meaningful results.

Working with Chris has always been a pleasure—his professionalism, reliability, and genuine passion for SEO make him a trusted partner. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough."

Head of Product at EG (Estates Gazette)

"I’ve worked with Chris for over three years at BizSpace. He’s been a strategic partner and a practical pair of hands as well. Chris built our measurement foundations: GA4 migration, GTM tagging and consent management - and then led the work that actually moved the dial: search and content strategy, digital PR, paid search and conversion improvements.

He is calm, commercially minded and relentlessly focused on outcomes. He brings clarity to complex problems, aligns stakeholders, and trains the team so the capability stays with us. The results speak for themselves with year-on-year growth over our years of collaborating. Beyond the numbers, I value his integrity, pace and ability to communicate with board-level confidence while staying hands-on with the detail. If you need someone who will both shape strategy and deliver it, I highly recommend Chris."

"Chris is an excellent digital marketing strategist and practitioner.

We have had good success working with Chris on both high level strategy and practical implementation. He is a details guy, which is exactly what is needed when making a paid marketing investment. He is equally comfortable with the big picture and strategy too, and has his finger on the pulse for the latest industry developments and trends.

Chris is also an excellent educator - he wrote and delivered a fantastic (personalised!) course for us on migrating our analytics to GA4 in a lively and engaging manner. Never dull, he also is also happy to put together bespoke content on smaller topics at short notice to increase skills and knowledge within the team.

A great professional and always personable, I'd strongly recommend working with Chris if you need help with any aspect of digital marketing."
