My Story
I’m Robin Rozhon, a marketing strategist with a background in SEO and web analytics.
I first became interested in the World Wide Web at the high school during HTML classes. At the University, classes were more focused on Java, C++, and SQL and other programming languages. Even though I’ve obtained my Master of Science Degree in System Engineering and Computer Science at the Technical University of Ostrava, I never felt like an engineer and took on web development with web design.
After my first year at the university, my friend and I started building websites for our first clients (Skrč to studio). I was eager to advance my coding skills so I spent nights in light of computer screens building even more features than we initially agreed on.
I quickly realized that having a great looking website with cool functionalities is not the goal. Every website needs users to become a great asset to every business (capturing leads, generating revenue, etc.).
My focus shifted from web development towards SEO, web analytics, and the complexity of digital marketing.
After a couple years, I decided to give up a part of my income and get a grasp of how high-end professionals work with the biggest brands so I applied for an internship at RobertNemec.com. It’s been a great experience and I sharpened my skills.
Robin had come to the agency already armed with a lot of know-how needed in digital marketing field like HTML and SEO skills. His outputs were often comparable to those of our more experienced consultants and delivered results on time. We are very happy to continue working with Robin after the end of the originally agreed period.
Pavel SimaIn 2014, after six months of contract work for Web Consulting, I moved across the Atlantic Ocean from Europe to Canada (Vancouver, BC) where I started working at GuaranteedSEO as an Web Account Manager / SEO Specialist.
Robin is one of those welcome combinations of superior technical knowledge, a great professional attitude, and a great work ethic. He was great to work with, attentive to clients and a valued team member. Would hire him back happily and highly recommend him as a first rate addition to any company looking to boost its SEO team to the next level.
James TurnerAfter two years, I got a amazing opportunity to work at one of the most iconic Canadian brands – MEC. I ditched the agency life and moved in-house in 2016.
We have accomplished great results. I got a chance to create and drive the SEO strategy, and as a part of the Brand team, to be involved not only in SEO but also in solving brand challenges.
Robin was highly skilled at assessing issues and building scalable solutions to address our SEO needs. His ability to move seamlessly between our IT, e-commerce and marketing teams and deliver meaningful change for our organic traffic were exemplary. I especially appreciated his willingness to train and educate staff in ways that made sense to their area of work, and his mix of IQ and EQ will serve him well wherever he goes.
Ryan McKeeI relished my time at MEC. But in March 2018, I accepted a calling from a brand that connects two of my biggest passions – sports and technology – and started working at Electronic Arts (EA) to pursue their ambitious vision.
