What is Negative SEO?

The SEO space can certainly get complicated for those who might be venturing into it for the first time.

In this video Matt discusses what exactly negative SEO is. Google Webmasters has been going through many changes in 2012 and Matt discusses how people can protect themselves using some of the new features within Google Webmaster Tools.

      Meet the Founder

      I’m Maciej Fita, the founder of Brandignity—an AI-driven digital marketing agency based in sunny Naples, Florida. With nearly 20 years in the digital marketing game, I’ve helped hundreds of clients win with inbound marketing and branding strategies that actually move the needle (not just look good on a slide). I’ve worked with everyone from scrappy SMBs to large corporate teams, rolling up my sleeves on strategy, execution, and consulting. If it lives online and needs to perform better, chances are I’ve had my hands on it—and made it work smarter.
