Results are everything. I’m a big believer in being transparent about the results a business should expect and receives from my services. All decisions are data driven and structured to get my clients sales& leads rather than just traffic. I make sure you are regularly updated with metrics that matter to you.What separates me and how I run my business is that if AdWords isn’t working for your business then I’ll let you know right away. AdWords doesn’t work for everyone and I want to see you succeed even if that means I lose business myself.I don’t just do AdWords though – it’s just where I start. I use the AdWords and Google Shopping data to drive an entire digital marketing campaign with email marketing, conversion rate optimisation and search engine optimisation. Getting new customers is the tough part, turning them into repeat buyers is where your business will really benefit from what I provide.Through an extensive software development skill-set and 20 years’ experience, I’m able to offer custom integration into a wide range of ecommerce shopping carts for things like developing Google Shopping Data Feeds that will help your business get higher quality more affordable paid traffic – a service not many providers can deliver. I love getting awesome results for my clients and always strive to go above and beyond. If for some reason the results don't come then I won't hide behind excuses just to keep taking your money. No; I will tell you things aren't working out and will even return any fees because I shouldn't get paid if I'm not providing you real results. Show less

I have extensive commercial programming experience in many languages including C/C++/C#, Java, PHP, JavaScript, etc. I also have over 11 years experience as an AMX Certified programmer and touch panel user interface designer for audio visual & technology integration.I can assist you with WordPress and Moodle programming and development, both in custom theme , plugin design or a complete project. It's a powerful engine that not many people know how to unleash.Some example projects I have worked on includes developing a system to integrate a BigCommerce online store with Google Merchant Centre and Google Shopping. This system allowed for the data feed to be best optimised for click-through-rates and exposure on the Google Shopping platform by giving the ability to modify product title, categories, unit pricing, descriptions, images, without affecting the shopping experience on the actual online store. A similar system was developed to work within the Magento backend to allow for different product, image, and description feeds to those seen on the online store. These features were not available in existing commercial solutions so the customisation allowed the client to really benefit from Google Shopping Product Data Feed optimisation.Another successful product was a commercially sold WordPress plugin that allowed customers to easily split test Google AdSense or other ad providers within Wordpress posts, pages, and sidebars. At the time no such product existed.I still use my software development knowledge today as part of the value I provide my Make Search Work clients. Show less
