MOGmedia Starts Developing SEOdatatool

After poor results working with Enterprise class SEO tools from multiple providers, it became apparent that they were insufficient to handle the demands of a typical MOGmedia client.

Leveraging our founder’s two decades of digital marketing and programming experience, we started developing a suite of custom tools in-house.

In July 2017 MOGmedia Inc. was formed in Los Gatos, California as a boutique search marketing consultancy, leveraging Martin’s decade of experience leading some of the largest and top performing in-house SEO teams worldwide.

In late 2018, after trialing multiple “enterprise” SEO tools to service our early clients, with unsatisfactory results and lackluster scalability, MOGmedia started work on a number of in-house data tools to process the large amounts of data necessary to work with global scale clients.

This has culminated in the build of a full scale SEO platform tailored specifically to the challenges of massive scale search optimization.
