About the author

Written by a specialist, not a sales team

SEO Netherlands is written and maintained by Romano Groenewoud, a Dutch freelance SEO specialist and the founder of SEOgeek.nl, active in search engine optimisation for over a decade.

Romano studied International Business Administration at Erasmus University Rotterdam and has served over a hundred Dutch businesses, from independent professionals to SMEs. His work and commentary have appeared on Emerce, Marketingfacts, Frankwatching and De Zaak, and he has been interviewed by BNR Nieuwsradio, the Dutch business news radio station.

This guide exists because the questions expats and international founders ask him are always the same: who can I trust, what should it cost, and how do I avoid getting burned? The answers here are the ones he gives in person, organised and translated into English.

The guide is independent: no affiliate links, no paid placements, no "top 10 agencies" lists sold to the highest bidder. Where Romano's own services are relevant, that connection is stated openly.
