Andy Kuiper - Internet Marketing, Edmonton, AB

Andy started his first online business in 2003, selling aids for daily living for seniors and the disabled across Canada and the United States. In 2005 Andy started his second online business selling DVD to MP4 (iPod) ripping/conversion software using Google Adwords (pay-per-click advertising). This was a very successful venture for Andy, and while sales rapidly increased, he learned how to effectively use Google Adwords in 28 countries, managing over $500, 000 in ad spend over a three-year period.In 2009 Andy started his Edmonton SEO agency, initially helping friends who owned local businesses. However, as his SEO knowledge and expertise took off, so did the number of clients who sought out his services. Andy decided that his goal would be to keep things small and close at hand, providing good communication, appropriate project management, and most importantly, allowing him to implement SEO strategies without having to ‘job out’ critical SEO tasks.
