My responsibilities as an SEO consultant continue to evolve.
Senior Digital Marketing Specialist
I currently work for Delphic Digital, formerly known as Delphic Sage, a data-driven marketing and SEO agency in Philadelphia, PA.
SEO Developer
My time as an SEO at WebiMax was fast-paced and rewarding. I changed roles quickly to meet the needs of a business that needed to stay at the forefront of new online marketing strategies.
I joined WebiMax in 2010 as an SEO Developer, a dynamic role that tested both my moderate web programming capabilities and my growing search engine optimization and overall business knowledge. Seeing an opportunity to offer something more for our clients I moved into a senior developer role responsible for creating a prioritized, client-friendly on-site SEO deliverable that is still being used today.
Senior SEO Developer
During my time as Senior Developer I brought in additional talent to support our new strategies. I maintained a hands-on approach, managing on-site technical audits while hiring and training new developers.
I also began building relationships with other SEO agencies and consultants in our area and beyond, which lead to speaking opportunities and additional exposure for our firm, as well as to the addition of some of the most talented minds in the industry.
SEO Consultant
I moved into a consultant role at the request of our CEO to support the sales team and project managers. I started to influence more than just technical SEO by developing new, scalable link building strategies for both new and existing clients regardless of budget.
SEO Strategist
I continue to develop new ways of helping ourselves and our clients market online by keeping tabs on algorithm changes, new social networks and new ways of building strong brands through relationships.

Beyond the Office
I attend local meetups frequently and have had the opportunity to speak when SEOmoz came to Philadelphia. I started our own meetup that has really started to pick up steam.
Earlier this year I passed the GAIQ and inspired others at WebiMax to do the same. I also crafted a GAIQ study guide that continues to be one of our most popular pages.
I contributed to one of the most popular link building posts of 2012 as well as to several other publications, including this article about reputation management.
I recently launched MarketingChris.com as a way to showcase my talent and provide a resource. ControlU.me is another property I manage for gamers, like me.
