My Story

I have been chasing search engine algorithms since the late 1990s, and am equally annoyed and intrigued every time Google gets smarter.

Before founding nekuda I was a copywriter, Photoshop editor, a content manager and an affiliate marketer in pre-Google search engines. While working with the Israeli yellow pages and during his affiliate marketing phase I discovered search engine marketing.  By the time Google took over online search and the term SEO was coined, I was already hooked.
