Joined Atlas Obscura in 2013

I've worked in the SEO industry since 2004 and have probably learned more from the questions that SEO beginners have than anywhere else. I love diving into research to find the impossible answer, chasing SEO scoundrels, riding the Google wave and have fun with Open Site Explorer.
