About

👋 I’m Joe. I’ve been in SEO since 2006. Before starting fatjoe, I worked in-house, handling everything from outreach to client strategy. Back then, outsourcing SEO work was a nightmare: unreliable vendors, inconsistent quality, and zero support. So we built the platform we wished existed. What started in 2012 as two people and a Google Sheet is now a $14M company delivering thousands of link building and content orders every month. Over the years, we’ve: - Built an amazing team of over 100 people - Delivered 200,000+ campaigns for agencies worldwide - Processed 4,000–5,000 links per month with a lean, productized system - Become one of the industry’s most recognized white-label SEO brands - Partnered with over 3,000 agencies globally Today, my focus is on making fatjoe the go-to infrastructure for SEO agencies. If you’re a business owner, Head of SEO, or marketer, I’d love to connect and share what’s worked for us.
