While I'm pretty established on this forum, here is my quick background.
I have one of the longest-running SEO service threads on this forum (still active after over a year), which also happens to be the oldest and original mininet thread on the forum, which can be found here:
http://www.wickedfire.com/links-seo...-100s-sites-backlinks-new-mininet-thread.html
It is on its 6th page now and has only positive reviews, often with clients listing actual, quantifiable movement they have gotten as the result of my work.
That thread is actually part 2 of another thread that was started by me in May of 2009.

SEO Consulting
I know that everyone on the internet claims to be an "SEO Consultant," so it's important to me that I establish myself. While I have before/after screenshots of nearly all my clients showing positive movement up the SERPs, I cannot post them because of privacy agreements. So feel free to have a look through my other thread (link above) and read the reviews from my previous clients who were kind enough to leave feedback in my thread.
My Work
I have worked with all types of clients, from one-man operations running small websites (affiliate sites, online stores, AdSense networks, small business websites, etc.), to large companies with an international presence and millions of competitors for a single keyword. I primarily focus on increasing rankings for my clients' sites through direct SEO work (see other thread), but as many of my clients will tell you I also do SEO Consulting.
My consulting ranges from "basic" on-page things, like:
- Page setup and content management, including organizational theory and content release schedules
- Keyword research, and how it determines much of the content on your site
- Adsense strategy (including how to avoid getting banned, since Google bans are for life)
- On-Page SEO (naming conventions, tags, keywords, site linking structure, sitemaps, etc.)
- Random stuff like WP Theme choice, plugins, etc.
To linking strategies, including:
- Monetization theory
- Algorithm evolution
- Link building theory (web2.0 vs. blogs vs. forum spam vs. blog commenting vs authority sites vs. etc., when you want your back links to be no-follow, etc.)
- Mass automated systems (such as XRumer) vs. relevant linking and when each is and isn't appropriate
- Rate of growth
To more "advanced" concepts for clients with more established presences on the web, or who may have more serious needs, including:
- Reputation management (how and why, and what not to do)
- How to structure multiple sites within the same niche
- The creation of long-term SEO strategies across multiple related websites (and in some cases, countries)
It goes without saying that I don't give generic "cookie cutter" advice. My clients will all tell you that they receive long (often very long), specific advice for their particular situation.
I have helped clients design profitable online websites, outrank their competition, and successfully manage the reputation of their name, their business, and their product. To give you an idea, some of my clients hadn't even registered their first domain name when we started working together, and other clients had 5-10+ year old online businesses that needed anything from touching up, to help expanding, to strategies to deal with some pretty serious competition.
I should mention that I only do white hat work and only recommend white hat methods. In many cases my clients are very established and well-known companies, and I don't see a reason to put anyone at risk with black hat tactics, to the extent that I won't even go there even if you were to sign a waiver or something ahead of time. So you'll have to go somewhere else for that.
As always, WickedFire is the only forum I am opening up my services to (the rest of my clients are private and/or come from referrals), and as always, I am offering WickedFire members a significant discount. My consulting rate for WickedFire members is $150/hr. The preferred communication method is Skype, but email and gtalk work, too.
As with everything I do, privacy is guaranteed. I never share anyone's niche, keywords, strategies, or anything else with anyone.
I will continue to offer my other service as well (see the link at the beginning of this thread).
PM me and we'll talk.
