The SEORCHERS Story

how we came into existence

In the late 1990′s Justin McGill, SEORCHERS Founder and CEO, was in high school. He had a copy of Dreamweaver and Photoshop and a creative desire to spend his free time trying to build websites full of waving flag banners and shooting star backgrounds. This hobby would turn into an obsession of constantly building bigger and better websites (you know, one’s with frames and cool mouse-over button links).

By the early 2000′s, he had built a poker database website for his home game poker group. This website would store poker results, tournament finishes, individual poker profiles, and more. This would transcend into working with odd jobs here and there for the uncle’s brother’s cousin’s company…you know how it goes.

By early 2008, Justin decided to make it a full time gig and started Novel Concept Studio. In early 2009, a branding expert informed us that we had a terrible name and it needed to be changed. Thus, SEORCHERS was born. SEORCHERS has grown as a business having started off working with friends who had an idea to eventually working with Fortune 100 companies and everything in between.

SEORCHERS’ work with my company has been nothing short of outstanding. We are now ranked in the top page of Google with the terms bumper stickers and stickers. Before we were on pages 3. They are always there when I need them and have plenty of great advice to give. I strongly recommended using SEORCHERS. I have used other SEO companies before and have been burned. Not this time though.

Professionalism. SEORCHERS has consistently gone above and beyond mine and the client’s expectations on the projects we have worked on. A true pleasure to work with and really see the bigger picture, which in the large field of Internet Marketing can really really get lost in the shuffle. You will be doing yourself and company a tremendous service by even just learning some of what they have to offer.

Justin McGill

Chief Executive Officer

Justin is the founder and President of SEORCHERS – a web marketing firm specializing in organic search engine optimization (SEO) with a focus on converting visitors into customers. In the late 90′s, Justin developed a deep fascination with web design and began to involve himself in, what is today known as, search engine optimization. With hobby-like beginnings (and obsession), he began to blaze a path for himself in SEO consultation. By early 2008, Justin had accumulated an impressive wealth of technical knowledge, lifting him to “expert” status, but he wanted to put his business acumen to the test. The result was the founding of a full service inbound marketing company. Today, SEORCHERS – is a tremendously successful and rapidly growing powerhouse in the online marketing arena!
