I started SEO Rank Labs LLC in 2024 — a small agency built around the kind of work that pays back fast when you do it right and embarrasses everyone involved when you don't. The premise was simple: in-house execution, plain-English reporting, and clients owning everything from day one. No outsourced overflow, no templated sites, no agency theater.

Digital Outbreak is the 2026 rebrand — same operator, broader scope. The agency now covers custom web design and development, local SEO and the new AI search layer (GEO and AEO), Google & Meta Ads, and the growing list of AI integrations that small businesses are starting to need but aren't ready to staff for. I'm Google Ads certified and write most of the production code that ships under our name.

Most of my Chicago-area clients are home services contractors, real estate professionals, medical and aesthetic clinics, and SMB operators who outgrew the template-site stage. I work with one paid-media partner (Jeff) on Google Ads engagements and pull in a vetted bench of designers and engineers when scope calls for it. Two operators, full ownership of the work, no offshoring.
