Non-wanky SEO and SEO Content. They say you can't know Technical SEO AND copywriting - I can. And do.

You're probably only here to see what type of person uses the word 'wanky' in a business profile, and that's OK.

===

I help B2B business owners get found on Google with non-wanky SEO. Because there's a lot of wanky SEO advice out there. I explain it in proper English, I don't promise miracles, and I won't try to sell you a course on optimising for traffic sources that account for less than 1% of your visitors.

If you're fed up with SEO advice that makes your brain hurt, I've spent 30 years learning what works and what's complete bollocks. While everyone else is losing their minds over AI search or "GEO" , I'm over here focusing on the stuff that brings in actual traffic and actual enquiries..

WHAT I OFFER:

♦️On-page and technical SEO for businesses that need to show up in Google searches that matter. From £750

♦️SEO copywriting for websites and blogs. The kind that brings in leads, not just people who click away after three seconds. From £450

♦️The Non-Wanky SEO Course (£750, payment schedules available) if you want to learn this stuff properly without someone talking at you like you're five.

♦️The Non-Wanky On-Page SEO Toolkit (£200, payment schedules available) for the quick wins you can sort out yourself.

♦️The SEO Fucking What? Newsletter - weekly -  and Podcast, where I spend 15 minutes a week ranting about whatever's currently annoying me in the SEO world (and telling you what to do instead). Free.

WHAT I WON'T DO:

♦️Promise you'll be ranking number one by next Tuesday.

♦️Charge you hundreds for tactics I could explain in ten minutes.

♦️Talk in jargon when normal words exist.

♦️Take your money if I don't think I can help.

My mornings start with SE Ranking and Google Search Console, because guessing is for people who like wasting money, and data is where the insights come from.

I've been doing this since before SEO was even called SEO, and I can tell you what drives traffic versus what gets sold in flashy courses that cost £3000.

Whether you need someone to sort out your SEO, want to learn it yourself, or just need to know why Google's ignoring your website, drop me a message.

Fair warning: if you don't need my help, I'll tell you that too.

I'm just gonna leave this here...

Image description: post on r/analytics on Reddit saying: 

"We just found out our AI has been making up analytics data for 3 months and I'm gonna throw up.

So we've been using an AI agent since November to answer leadership questions about metrics. It seemed amazing at first fast answers, detailed explanations, everyone loved it.

I just found out it's been hallucinating numbers this entire time.

Our VP of sales made territory decisions based on data that didn't exist. Our CFO showed the board a deck with fake insights. The AI was just inventing plausible sounding percentages.
I only caught it by accident when someone asked me to double check something. I started digging, and holy shit, it's bad."

non-wanky SEO. Yes, non-wanky. Yes, I know - it’s OK if I’m not for you. Thanks.

I mean, I'm very much of the mind that we don't all have to agree all of the time, but in this case, I very much agree with this post and the comments that come afterwards.

The Website Chef | A WordPress website designer with the recipe for success

I was alerted to the genius that is Nikki Pilkington by a colleague last year. Nikki has a refreshingly irreverent approach to SEO. I’ve been reading her posts and listening to her podcasts and even though they are sometimes sweary, she always gives nuggets of wisdom. When Nikki shares her expertise it is well worth paying attention. She has de-mystified much around SEO and I have learned so much that I can apply to projects for my clients. 

I highly recommend you check her out on LinkedIn and follow her if she’s a good fit. You will be entertained. You will learn a lot. You will finally understand SEO in everyday language.

Look after media on the match day at our new stadium in Plough Lane - exciting times - work very closely with the Chief Executive, Club Secretary, Communications Manager and club Media Executive. Also support media promotion of events for both the football club, Foundation and Dons Trust, who are the ultimate owners of AFC Wimbledon. 

Also looked after supporter coaches to away games for many years. Organised 24 coaches to the Play Off Final in Manchester on the 21 May 2011 - great fun and came away with the right result (for us) of promotion to League 2. Hugely proud of the academy started by Nigel Higgs, which is delivering a great stream of players to the first team squad. 

UPDATE: On the 3 November 2020, the club moved into its new stadium on Plough Lane and played their first competitive fixture against Doncaster Rovers. The game ended 2-2, but the result didn't matter, just the fact we were home after 29 years. Very emotional. 
You can see more via the Insta link below. 

April 2023: The stadium has now hosted cup finals, its first international match and much more is to come as many understand the benefit of this vital community asset, which is helping in regeneration of the locale with excellent non-match day facilities available.

Hello - I may have checked out your profile recently, since I would do that as part of my system check to assess whether you can join one of my many LinkedIn groups. If you are UK based, then most likely would have accepted you into the group, and pretty certain, I would be happy to connect - please do ask, and don't be shy? ;o)

Crypto? Suggest you check out my point at the foot of this section. 
Blockchain? We might have a casual conversation ...... do though read on for more. 
I have spent 30 months getting my head around BlockChain, but still see Crypto as gambling.

Hope 2024 is delivering all you want and more? If not, then please see what I have on offer for a SAM person in 2024? SAM stands for Socially Active, Ambitious & Motivated.

Are you seeking a new challenge? If so, we should have a chat. Contact details here: https://combyne.wordpress.com/category/opportunity/ 
Working UK wide with an award winning British success story.
It is an ideal opportunity to get started with a business that is delivering success for its partners.
Does that sound of interest to you?
Then please check out www.future-biz.co.uk 
Everyone NEEDs a side hustle and this one is perfect, and we are having a record year - just £10 to start. The rewards are massive, and ethics second to none. 

On a personal basis, I have a passion for AFC Wimbledon, where for 47 years I was a volunteer. Stepped down in July 2023 - a book now beckons. :o)  Brilliantly we won promotion to League One in May 2016, but slipped back into League 2. Now in our new stadium - exciting times.  https://www.instagram.com/plough_lane_stadium_wimbledon/

REMINDER: I primarily network with UK based people because I have UK centric offers.
I am NOT an Open Networker, but I am a Successful Networker. 
There is a major, major difference. 
If you are UK based, but focus elsewhere - then unlikely I want to connect.
Nothing personal

Also I have ZERO interest in anything crypto - very happy to block you, if you approach me about it? 
Can't say fairer than that! Blockchain is fine and I owe that to my friends at BlockDojo - they have educated me.

PS I run 60 groups on Facebook - I am very easy to find. 
Have a great interest in start up businesses.
