SEO & Grow are a small, Dublin-based consultancy specialising in Search Engine Marketing. The 2 Co-Founders, Peter O’Neill & Aidan Rooney, are in their early 20s and have a very unique start-up story.
Peter and Aidan met while studying Marketing, Innovation & Technology together in DCU before embarking on a year-long spell in South America, where they worked as Head of Search Marketing at Peru Hop, an Irish-owned travel company. Within eleven months, they had more than doubled Peru Hop’s organic & referral website traffic, so they knew they had a flair and talent for SEO.
After spending some time apart working in London and Dublin respectively with Senior SEO/PPC Consultants, and upon graduating from DCU, the pair joined forces once more to set up SEO & Grow.
The 2 Dublin lads believe their experience to date has helped them to identify a real gap in the market: “Having worked both client-side and agency-side over the last couple of years, we noticed a huge disconnect between a business’s needs and an agency’s offering. A lot of SEO agencies do their best to withhold as much information as possible from their clients. Through an agency’s lens, the less a client knows, the more that client can be charged. SEO & Grow serves to bridge the gap between a business’s needs, and an agency’s offering.” The 2 Dubs have been busy since launch and are working with customers across various industries and several continents including a Luxury Travel Agents in South America, a Private Tutoring Agency in London & a Real Estate Company in California.
And, when they’re not working, Peter & Aidan are more than likely travelling… They spent last December working remotely from India – relaxing on the beaches of Goa, dodging snake charmers in Jaipur and sailing on the Ganges in Varanasi. Over the next 5 years, the pair have a very different approach than usual as to how they hope to grow: “We plan to continue scaling vertically, not horizontally – meaning we don’t want to build the biggest agency in Dublin with the most employees and clients, we want to build the best agency in Dublin with the most satisfied clients & the best margins.”
