Boulder, CO · Serving the Front Range

I've been ranking websites longer than most SEO consultants have been on the internet.

I founded adoption.com in 1995, before "SEO" was a phrase anyone used. AI has changed the playbook. It hasn't changed the fundamentals. I rank what I own, then I do the same work for you.

Proof, not promises

Every case study on this site is a property I owned and ranked myself. Not a client result. My own work.

Why trust someone called a "Believer"?

Half the SEO world decided AI killed search and started posting hot takes about it. I kept ranking. My own properties. With measurable results. The "Believer" part is earned, not aspirational.

My background is medical technology and biochemistry. I care about evidence. I care about what actually works. I've been doing this since before most of my competitors were in high school.
