April 15, 2021 – RIVERTON, UTAH – On March 5, SEO Werkz expanded its SEO team with the purchase of Michigan-based search engine optimization (SEO) and digital marketing firm Optimize Marketing.

Optimize Marketing provides many of the same services in digital marketing and search engine marketing that SEO Werkz provides. The expansion is a natural fit and will allow SEO Werkz to continue growing as a leading provider of digital services for companies of all sizes that want to improve their online presence, appeal to new customers online, and increase visibility and sales.

“We are excited to welcome the Optimize Marketing team to the SEO Werkz family in this recent expansion. Optimize Marketing has been providing exceptional service to their clients since they first opened in 2013 and has the same core values of transparency and honesty as we do,” said SEO Werkz co-founder and CEO, Paul Staten.

Optimize Marketing was founded in 2013 by Michael Terranova. The company is focused on providing a high level of support and strategic SEO services to improve companies’ presence online. Their tight-knit team is committed to customer service and helping clients navigate an ever-changing digital landscape to remain competitive.

SEO Werkz was founded in 2012 when Paul Staten and his partner Nicholas Dutson saw the negative experiences clients had with their current SEO firms. Many felt like they were left in the dark about what they were paying for, or worse, were being taken advantage of and were not getting good value from their digital marketing and web design agency.

It was founded on three key principles that it maintains today: be transparent, get results, and earn loyalty. Since that time SEO Werkz has grown to nearly 100 employees in Utah and the Philippines, and is excited to welcome new team members in Michigan.

Bringing these two companies together will provide even stronger support and services to Optimize Marketing’s existing clients. SEO Werkz brings years of experience, dedicated and knowledgeable team members, and extensive digital tools to provide exceptional service to the clients coming over from Optimize Marketing.

“From the first call we had with their company, we knew they had built an excellent foundation and we look forward to the continued growth of SEO Werkz,” said Staten.
