For the SEO King, business is good, life is good!

When it comes to building high-performance websites, along with creating and implementing ground-up search optimization strategies, these days, successful businesses all over the country are turning to George Chaney (and it’s no surprise that Chaney is known as "The SEO King").

Who Is George Chaney?

The brief bio goes something like this: As founder and President of SEO King, Inc., George Chaney is the quintessential example of a hard-working entrepreneur who’s found ongoing success on many levels in life. Developer and owner of 5 A-List websites, 4 with a national audience along with 1 that’s regional, George has managed to build what many would consider to be a "golden web empire."

Of course, like many entrepreneurial success stories, the road to success didn’t exactly reveal itself without the expected speed bumps and obstacles along the way. Choosing to get right to work after high school, Chaney is actually quite educated – both in the school of hard knocks and with real life, hands on professional experience that’s as varied as it is remarkable.

Prior to getting into the growing field of web development and optimization, Chaney prospered through a series of fast paced professional employment experiences. With 8 years in the banking industry (3 of those years specializing in the field of mortgages) preceded by 8 years in B2B commodity sales (mostly within the manufacturing industry), professional career highlights easy to come by.

Enter the web business. Like any "Generation X’er," Chaney didn’t have the good fortune of growing up with the internet or learning it from a young age. For this generation, even having a couple of computers in school was a luxury. Internet and web experience had to be something that was learned step-by-step from scratch – with passion.

Chaney began his foray into where he’d ultimately find his most enduring successes not unlike many in the early days of the web. He was very impressed with the potential of the web and built his first web presence more than 10 years ago – an AOL personal web page. Naturally, it didn’t take long for things to progress from there.

Just a brief couple of years later, Chaney was rapidly progressing full speed ahead with his very own web business. Today, with more than 7 years of professional web marketing experience, his own portfolio of sites has netted more than 12.6 million pages served over just 4 years and on pace to serve nearly 1,000,000 unique visitors this year alone.
