Web development and SEO
Dan is originally from England and is now based in Sylvan Lake, Alberta. His work has included SEO, web development and hosting for agency clients.
In June 2022, he also began building content sites of his own. That experience developed his approach to search-focused content, site structure and performance.
2023Cloudways case study
In November 2023, Cloudways published a customer case study about a content site Dan built and owned. It documented 200K monthly pageviews and a 6-figure valuation reached in just over a year. These figures describe his own content site.
