Stephan is extremely knowledgeable in SEO

We have been utilizing Stephan’s expert SEO knowledge on a consulting basis for the last 8 months and have seen amazing results. Stephan is extremely knowledgeable in the search engine optimization and Internet marketing fields, and seems to have endless knowledge of the latest trends and developments in the Internet world, especially those related to Web 2.0 technologies.

After the first time going through Part 1 and 2 of the course I can say it’s great value for the money

After the first time going through Part 1 and 2 of the course I can say it’s great value for the money. About Search Console I knew the basics – I did only setup the accounts for my customers and clicked a little here and there. Now I have a guideline to get the full picture!

Screaming Frog I use for more than 2 years and show potential customers in live presentations every day where some problems are but I use only about 8% of the functionality of the software. I several times planned to go through the software on my own to learn how to use it better but with your moderated help it’s the best solution.

He was chosen in one of the top interviews that we’ve done in seven years

Hi, my name is Aaron Walker. I’m the president and founder of View From the Top. I’m a premier life and business coach helping ordinary people become extraordinary in all they do. I’m very privileged today to be facilitating 20 mastermind groups with members from both national and international audiences. Well, periodically, we ask guests to be interviewed as an expert. Well, I reached out to Stephan Spencer, thinking there is no way I’m even gonna get an opportunity to get this guy. He is world-class, world-renowned. He’s an author, he’s a speaker, and he’s a search engine optimization expert. And I said, there is no way I’m gonna get this guy. Well, I’m happy to report that not only did I get him to do an hour interview on a Zoom video conference with all of my mastermind participants, but also he was chosen in one of the top interviews that we’ve done in seven years. The value that he gave was unbelievable. And I wanted to take just a moment and thank Stephan Spencer for such an incredible interview. Thank you from View From The Top.

Stephan’s a SEO Expert

Hi, I’m Kendall Bennett. I’m the CEO of AMain Performance Sports and Hobbies. Stephan’s a SEO Expert. We contracted him, we were struggling to get our SEO to work correctly. Stephan came along and he’s very expensive but he’s probably the best SEO guy that we’ve ever worked with.

We have a large e-commerce website, 60,000 plus products. Getting SEO to work with such a huge collection of product pages is actually quite difficult. The first thing he did that was different to most other guys is that he did a very big, deep dive into our website and found out a lot of things that we had missed that were wrong, things that we had to clean up, site map issues and stuff like that, things that just didn’t show up because they didn’t really show up in the front end. He’s really good at actually figuring that stuff out.

He gave us a lot of recommendations about the things that we should do. Everything he told us to do, something he suggested and recommended, actually did work for us. It worked quite well.

He also told us things that we shouldn’t do. Whether I agreed with him or not at the time, he was right. The things that he said, “You shouldn’t do that,” yeah, we shouldn’t have done that. We fixed it. Today, our SEO has been the strongest it’s been in a long time. We credit a lot of that to Stephan’s expertise.
If you’re thinking about using him for SEO, I’d highly recommend him.

One of the best decisions I’ve made

Before I started the sessions with Stephan, I was kind of in doubt because his sessions were so expensive. I was like, “Oh my gosh, is that worth it? Can I afford it?” But no, I decided to go for it and has been one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life.

Before, I was living in this bubble where I was kind… of comfortable but I wasn’t growing at all. As you probably know, if you’re not growing, you’ll die. That’s not the place I wanted to be in. With Stephan’s help, I was able to shift to a new dimension for a place where there was so much more knowledge, so much happiness, and just incredible transformation. At work, just from the beginning, Stephan looked at some of my emails and he said, “AJ, change the way you ask your customers from this way to another way.” You know what? There was an uptick right there. Also, I’m getting this brand new website. Very smart, beautiful, modern and I’m sure it’s going to help change my business substantially. Plus, in terms of my health, there are so many new things that he helped me change. One for example is that I used to brag that I could live off of four to five hours of sleep at night. To find out, I was slowly killing myself. Nowadays, I’m able to go to bed earlier. I go to bed usually at [10:00]PM and I get an average now of seven and a half to eight hours of sleep, which has really changed my life. One thing about Stephan that I didn’t know but in the last few months became clear to me is that he’s a very humble guy. He really lives what he preaches because he’s a real transformation on what he teaches, which is very unusual. Also, Stephan, when he talks to me during our sessions, I can feel that he puts himself on my shoes before he tells me, “Say anything to me.” Which really, it’s incredible. It’s almost very special. It’s almost a spiritual level. It’s really helping me so much because before, in other sessions, other coaches, I didn’t feel like that. It was different. Another thing about Stephan is that he has so much knowledge about almost anything. It’s like huge amounts of information that there’s no price for that. I feel like I have advanced 10 to 20 years ahead. There’s so much knowledge, so much incredible information that I’m just loving it. I just want to grow more and more and I know the sky’s the limit. I really recommend Stephan Spencer to anyone that’s thinking about hiring a coach. If you have any questions about anything at all, just send me an email directly to me at [email protected]. Have a fantastic day.

Extremely Inspirational

I was just talking to Stephan Spencer here about the talk he gave and it must have been four years ago at SMX Advanced, he was giving just slide after slide of power tips on how to search in very interesting and unusual ways and how to apply the idea of advanced search to things I had never thought about link building or how to find a particular site or particular information that you just can’t find normally because you can’t query with that but you actually can learn to do it with all these fancy advanced queries. The cool thing about that was it was extremely inspirational for me because I hadn’t really thought of using advanced search and applying it in really non-standard ways to do things. That changed the way I used Google and think about search and search marketing forever.

You changed our whole model, and as a result we are crushing it

Thanks for all your help. You changed our whole model, and as a result we are crushing it.

He is extremely knowledgeable about SEO

Stephan Spencer has spoken at the Internet Retailer Conference several times. We try to minimize repeat speakers, but we keep inviting Stephan back because he is extremely knowledgeable about SEO and does a great job communicating that knowledge to conference attendees. He has an engaging stage presence, is quick on his feet in analyzing attendees’ SEO and clear in telling attendees what they need to do to improve their SEO.

Really understands the blend between SEO and social media

For the better part of a decade, I have been talking about social media with Stephan and he is one of the few people who really understands the blend between SEO and social media, and how it’s related to commerce, specifically ecommerce.

SEO techniques that have actually improved my business skills tremendously

Hi, this is Jim and I wanted to say a few words about Stephan Spencer’s coaching program. I actually have used Stephan’s program for three months and it’s been super beneficial to me. It actually helped me to retain one of my biggest clients.

Some of the work we did in analyzing the client website was instrumental in my retaining that account. It’s been very helpful also in terms of general industry knowledge and some specific SEO techniques that have actually improved my business skills tremendously. Thanks so much, Stephan. I would highly recommend utilizing the service.

Truly understand SEO and how to rank

There are only a few experts in the world that truly understand SEO and how to rank at the top of the search engines, and Stephan Spencer is one of them!

Working with an expert

Working with an expert like Stephan has been amazing. Stephan and his team helped my site recover from a manual Google penalty. He literally wrote “the book” on SEO and so glad to have a cutting edge expert on my side.

He was key to turning my business from an idea into reality

I will rarely write a review such as this and frankly, Stephan doesn’t need any more accolades, however, he was key to turning my business from an idea into reality. He defined our entire digital strategy (including the blog, podcast and explainer video), and even created our brand from scratch. Going into it, my 18-year company was American Response, Inc. and we didn’t even have a web site.

He came up with the SkyCover name and the SafeHouse podcast name, acquired the skycover.com domain from a domainer, developed our presence on social sites like Pinterest and Twitter, defined our keyword strategy, drove all content marketing, and assembled a crackerjack team of viral content writers, social media power users, videographers, animators, podcast producers and more. He’s known as the SEO guru and that’s why I hired him. Stephan truly went above and beyond the initial scope of SEO to really drive our business forward across all channels. I never would have dreamed I’d have my own podcast show that I don’t have to host myself or produce and that’s in the iTunes New & Noteworthy and Top 200. Working with Stephan was the best decision I could have made. I am so grateful to have found such a dedicated and gifted expert to navigate me through the choppy waters of launching a startup.

He understands how strategic vision is

I have worked with Stephan for many years and can wholeheartedly recommend him to be your guide as you navigate the quickly changing currents of social ecommerce. He understands how strategic vision is nothing without tactical execution and vice versa.

I recommend Stephan without reservation

Working with Stephan was without a doubt one of the best investments we’ve made. After implementing only half of Stephan’s recommendations, our organic traffic went up 70%, which is not easy when you already have 90,000 daily organic visits and you’ve optimized your site a whole lot over the years. I recommend Stephan without reservation.

He’s a thought leader, the real deal

I’ve known Stephan for many years from the conference speaking circuit. He’s a thought leader, the real deal. Anytime he speaks or writes, you should stop and pay attention.

Stephan is very knowledgeable and an expert

I attended a workshop by Stephan Spencer on website auditing at the Beauty Online conference. The workshop was comprehensive and illuminating. I was very impressed. I invited Stephan to our offices in New York to critique the e-commerce shop-in-shop that I have been in charge of developing. The advice was very valuable and covered many things that we were not aware of or had not considered.

The coaching and mentoring, which has certainly helped me a lot, both my agency and my personal life!

Over six years, we spent quite a lot of time together, especially with the coaching and mentoring, which has certainly helped me a lot, both my agency and then, unexpectedly, certainly with my personal life as well!

He brings top-notch expertise and real world examples that really resonate.

We have had hundreds of presenters at our events over the years and Stephan is always one of the top most well-received. He brings top-notch expertise and real-world examples that really resonate. I wouldn’t hesitate to put him into one of my lineups.

He's a freaking ninja at this stuff

Hi, my name is Robert Alan, and I’m the number 1 New York Times bestselling author of some huge New York Times bestsellers about money frankly, creating wealth and multiple streams of income and the one-minute millionaire. I’m an expert in my arena, but when it comes to the internet, there is one expert that, every single person who has a website – do you have a website? – well you need SEO, period. You need to have your ranking come up and theres nobody in the WORLD that can teach you how to do that better then Stephan. Stephan Spencer is the scientist behind SEO. He’s the author of the book The Art of SEO, and new books that are coming out – he’s the guy. You need to literally read his information, study, go to his webinars, read his books, maybe consult with him if you want to, let him teach you exactly how to get your message to the top, so you can generate more revenue, your website can work better, so yo can generate more profit…this is the guy. Who would you want to go to besides the one who did the most to help people get SEO’d in the world. He is the guy about SEO. Stephan Spencer, don’t you forget that name, you’re going to hear it over and over again. Stephan Spencer is the SEO guru, he is the ninja, he’s a freaking NINJA at this stuff! He’s the man, so go to Stephan. Once again Robert Alan here, giving you my STRONG endorsement for Stephan.” market space. The lesson is to listen, gain understanding and act upon his incredible insights.

In terms of ROI, it was a sizable investment for us at the time but absolutely worth every penny. He’s certainly a thought leader.

The first thing I wanted to point out was how technical he was, his technical ability, how cutting edge some of the concepts he brought to the table were, the observations that he had. We were facing a lot of technical challenges at the time, and he was really efficient in diagnosing those problems, pointing those out, and giving us a clear path to remedy those problems.

He was super creative in putting out content that was super shareable, actionable, and clickable. The other thing that I would point out was that he was unabashedly, unapologetically white hat. So many companies I feel like (and ours was no different) try to come up with short-term solutions to complicated problems – he would never let us do that. Everything that he conceived of was very thorough and meant to be sustainable. In terms of ROI, it was a sizable investment for us at the time but absolutely worth every penny. He gave us a roadmap that we were working on for years after that engagement ended and again it was complete. So in summary, I recommend Stephan Spencer wholeheartedly. He’s certainly a thought leader in the industry and that was evident every moment that he worked with us. Absolutely no reservations and would be eager to work with him again in the future.

Most sought out speaker and authority on SEO…

With so many marketing pundits foretelling the end of marketing as we know it–with the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI) taking over the world, the promise of more institutional regulations and online marketing imposters making it more difficult for the good guys to do good–one of the really good guys is doubling down by releasing the 4th edition of his book on one of those areas where its demise has been erroneously predicted, Search Engine Optimization (SEO).

Stephen Spencer, the ultimate authority on SEO, is not only doubling down, but he is predicting even more opportunities in this vast and complicated online media choice. He believes, like most of the “good guys” do, that every challenge is an opportunity…and with the 4th edition of The Art of SEO, he not only updates the opportunities, he creates new avenues and applications available nowhere else. That’s Stephen’s special sauce… why he is the most sought out speaker and authority on this topic… and why he has spoken to my masterminds multiple times. And it’s time for me to book him again based on this new book… that is disguised as a 4th edition.

Stephan has just been one of the most impactful people.

You came into my life at a time when my career was just taking off and growing, and you gave me advice that helped shape my own personal frameworks, which I lived by throughout my career.

And it’s proven immensely valuable. And the people watching this think maybe there’s a one-time touch on the well. For those watching, Stephan and I are in regular contact, and we share a great number of things with each other in terms of personal thinking, approaches to life, and these kinds of concepts, each from our own unique perspective. And I can say that Stephan has just been one of the most impactful people. It was my career that made this intersection happen with Stephan, but he’s become somebody who is personally valuable to me, very much a friend. We’re sitting here a decade after that. Stephan, I still feel this way, and you are still helping me. I become better through select people. Stephan, you’re still one of those people for me, and thank you.

Learn From A Guy Who's A Master At Upleveling...

There are more people than ever running online businesses using the internet because many of us are stuck at home, and navigating an online business can be tricky today because of these ever-changing algorithms and SEO. You never know what’s going to happen, and it’s possible to navigate it on your own.

But why take on that stress? I didn’t. That’s why I work with a guy named Stephan Spencer, who essentially wrote the books, actually three of them on SEO. He’s an internationally recognized SEO expert and bestselling author of Google Power Search and the Art of SEO. In addition to hacking SEO, Stephan spent a lot of time hacking himself, just like I have.

He’s one of us. So if you want to take your business to the next level with SEO, learn from a guy who’s a master at upleveling, go to stephanspencer.com for information and a different approach to SEO. You can get a free consult or choose a service package that’s right for you. That’s stephanspencer.com.

I highly recommend this program and Stephan.

The thing that has struck me most was that I did not even know what I did not know about SEO. And the best concept I have learned so far is the “3 second rule” for understanding value prop/next steps on web site. Simple but powerful.

Stephan and his team have broken SEO down in practical and easy to follow course modules (of which I have completed the first two so far). Bringing in examples of other thought leaders in SEO and other case studies is a powerful way to reinforce some of the concepts being taught in the courses. Helps me to learn and also helps me to sell some of these SEO ideas to others on my team.

There are a lot of people who claim to do SEO. It is clear to me that Stephan is a leading authority in the field and his clients are lucky to have him on their team.

The top guy in the SEO business

I know Stephan, and I want to tell you something, this man is a genius. He’s considered to be the top guy in the SEO business.
