KP Numismatics (F+W Media)

My work with the the Numismatics community of F+W was as an Online Product Manager. I exceed budget goals and created new sources of revenue using my SEO skills. We consolidated a multitude of websites into Numismaster.com creating a more manageable online profile and maximizing the benefit of our inbound link profile, achieved #2 rankings in Google for “coin price guide” (often times #1), #6-#7 rankings in Google for “coin dealers,” and drove considerable new monthly revenue from these efforts.

Working with Development, we fixed thousands of duplicate meta title issues and made other techincal SEO improvements that drove organic search engine traffic up considerably.
