I love technology when it makes my life more fun. I like it better when it’s easy. I’m a fan of a number of TV shows out of the US like Orange is the New Black, Games of Thrones etc. but not enough to go through the hassle of setting up NetFlix from Australia. So, like most people I am…

The rumour is out and it’s probably not too surprising. A number of sources are claiming that Google could be set to use mobile user experience as part its’ ranking algorithm. The notion of this isn’t new (we already know that site speed is a ranking factor for mobile) but the resurgance in discussion means it may not be too…

Here’s some news about a recent change in Google that was strongly recommended in recent months. We have been advising clients about the benefits of using Authorship mark-up (a Google experiment over the last three years) for their content. Most recently Google announced that they would be removing author photos from search results as: [one_half] – There wasn’t data to…

Right, so here we go again. It’s enough with the animals, the most recent being Pigeon which looked at local search. Google has announced on Webmaster Central Blog that a site served on an HTTPS version will benefit in search results, even if only a little.

AMIRE has been providing Telstra Media with SEO Services since the beginning of October 2013 and whilst still relatively new they have provided exceptional service and insight for the business thus far.
Telstra Media replaced our previous SEO agency (whom we had worked with for over 6 years) with AMIRE, which I believe is a clear indication of their SEO expertise and experience. Telstra Media is looking forward to a strong relationship with AMIRE and have no hesitation in recommending them to any company considering their services.

I have known Sean and Amye from the days when ‘search’ was in its infancy in Australia. At the time my team and I were intent on establishing the online business for AAMI. We recognised early on how important search would be to help position AAMI on customer shopping lists for their insurance needs and as a cost effective marketing tool. Seam and Amye continue to impress me with the depth and breadth of knowledge they have with the search industry. Their technical knowledge is extensive and that helps remove the guesswork and makes decisions easier and more precise.
They listened and understood the AAMI business and what the key business drivers were. This helped us design and develop websites that balanced optimal search requirements with user experience and customer centric design.
It was principally through Sean and Amye’s knowledge and results driven attitude that positioned AAMI in a prominent position for all of AAMI’s key terms, a position it has held for many years.

Amye consulted on Suncorp Commercial Insurance for a number of years in optimising our business for search. In that period, Suncorp’s dominance in search helped the business receive an unprecedented number of lead opportunities, driving further investment and support of the online channel.
Amye’s professionalism and attention to detail served us well. Amye was always free and willing to assist with any queries we had about the complexities of SEO as well as providing us with up-to-the-minute news on trends and changes in search. We were always well prepared to stay ahead of the game.

During my spell at Virgin Money Australia, Sean was the SEO expert from 24/7 Real Media, and proved to be deeply knowledgeable and of great service. I would recommend Sean as an SEO specialist for being extremely approachable, cheerful, professional and provided invaluable advice on improving the company site in natural search, combined with other paid search activity.
