Jenny Hollander

Digital Director at Marie Claire

Nobody understands the intersection of SEO and editorial strategy like Sam Robson and Keith Walker of the better web co. The two of them were responsible for enormous growth at Future in countless spaces, not to mention a joy to work with. Their skillset goes beyond just a deep knowledge of technical and editorial SEO and audience growth—both Sam and Keith know how to communicate with teams effectively and manage priorities to achieve the best goals for all stakeholders involved.

That’s a lot of tech-speak, I know, so let me put it more simply: Keith and Sam know how to grow businesses online, they know how to engage with and relate to people regardless of the situation, and they really, really know their SEO and data management. The dream team, in my opinion.

Matt Risley

Managing Director, 4Studio, Channel4

Sam & Keith of the better web co. are experts in their field – knowledgeable, innovative and 100% great to work with, they know digital audiences, content, and how to connect the two innately. It also helps that they’re as collaborative and friendly as they are insightful.

Kay McMahon

Executive Director, Content Strategy, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.

I worked at the same organisation as Keith he  was always quick to cut through the B.S and open to trying new things with a fail fast mentality. He has a knack for unifying disparate people and getting them onside, crucial in an industry where everyone is a “digital expert” yet at that time, no-one really was.

Neil Robinson

Former Board Director at Time Inc.

At different moments in your career you need to know when top class skills matter. At Time Inc. we attracted some of the best talent in the industry but signing up Sam and Keith was a transformational moment in taking our content strategy to another level. Sam is undeniably a master craftsman in SEO. Data driven, detailed in execution and understood by everyone at all levels. Alongside Keith’s journalism background fused with technical product capability made them a unique proposition.

Charlie Speight

Group Product Manager at Google Commerce

Sam Robson is the most talented, intelligent and hard-working audience development leader I have ever known. I have advised a great number of people to “listen closely to Sam and do exactly what he says you should do.” This is the best advice I have ever given anyone.

I watched Sam methodically and pragmatically build world-class social and SEO reach across more than a dozen brands. Sam has the talent and know-how to lead audience development for any brand in the world. If you have the chance to work with Sam, you and your company will have hit the jackpot.

Nial Ferguson

European Managing Director at Sourcepoint

Sam & Keith of the better web co. are that rare team who can justifiably say that they have helped build some of the most successful digital brands and digital businesses on the web. I’ve seen them lead teams, develop strategies and build audiences through research, content planning, execution and delivery and their record-breaking audience growth statistics are a better testimony than I can provide.
