About Luca Tagliaferro
I am a teacher turned SEO consultant, living and breathing digital marketing since 2011. I hold a Master Degree in Digital Marketing from a leading UK University and have been featured in Yahoo! Finance, Forbes, SEMRush, SparkToro, SearchEngineLand, Inc.
I currently work as a freelancer SEO consultant and recently launched my new SEO agency, supporting the fastest growing brands in the UK and the US.
“Luca is the go-to expert for anything SEO.”
“Luca Tagliaferro, SEO Consultant, provide prime insights on the psychology of persuasion in digital marketing.”
“Luca is the guru of SEMRush”
“Luca’s contributions have moved the field of web marketing forward”
I’ve done a bit of everything in SEO, working in-house and for agencies in small, medium and large companies. I’m from Italy, but my SEO career started almost accidentally after I moved to the UK to study digital marketing at the University of Portsmouth, where I now support younger students as an Entrepreneur in Residence.
Working with clients in all sections – services, educational, e-commerce, healthcare and more, my campaigns generated over £10,000,000 in revenue to my clients and I ranked over 500,000 keywords in top 3 positions for the most challenging industries in the UK and the US.
Prior to my career in SEO, I graduated as a teacher of foreign languages (English and French) journalist from the University of Lecce in Italy in 2005 and worked for some of the most important consultancy companies in Brussels as an EU affairs consultant. I also regularly write for SearchEngineLand as a guest author on all things related to SEO.
