How Sailor SEO Started
Austin's journey into SEO began at a law firm marketing agency, where he worked with attorneys in competitive markets across the United States. Helping law firms grow through search gave him firsthand experience in what it takes to rank in highly competitive industries and generate real business results through SEO.
As artificial intelligence began reshaping search, Austin saw an opportunity to make SEO even more powerful. Instead of viewing AI as a replacement for SEO, he saw it as a tool that could enhance strategy, efficiency, and results. That vision led to the creation of Sailor SEO, an AI-powered SEO company built to help businesses increase visibility, earn citations in AI-generated answers, and stay ahead of the future of search.
