Leaving Leeds

Hey folks,

Just a quick one to tell you about a change for me. It’s with both sadness and great excitement I can now tell you about my pending move from Leeds to pastures new.

I’ve decided to leave my current position here to take a new Job @ Gravytrain working with LeedsSEO favourite Hannah_bo_banna , in Hampton Hill, SW London. I’m obviously really excited about my new role, where I’ll be looking after Gravytrain’s SEO clients.

Although up until recently I was quite settled in the North, having lived here all my life, I decided it was time for a change – my personal circumstances have changed a fair bit recently and most of my family now live down south. I’m moving to a nice flat in Twickenham in a couple of weeks, which, given I currently live in Barnsley, is likely to be a little bit different ;)

There’s nothing really wrong with my current Job, I just fancied moving somewhere busier and working agency side again. Obviously working for somebody as cool as Hannah was a major pull too!

I don’t know many people in the South West London (or London overall) yet, so if you live around there feel free to drop me a line on twitter.

I’ll still be blogging for LeedsSEO (yes yes I know, I’ve been quiet recently, but worry not – I have several killer posts in progress), and hopefully still making the occasional event up here too.
Catch y’all around,

Matthew

    “…working for somebody as cool as Hannah”?

    Dude you know it’s not me who decides how much you’re getting paid, right? ;)

    Really looking forward to you starting with us!

    I’m not going to miss you Judas, I only hope that you can make up for this shameful betrayal of your Northern roots by writing *hundreds* of posts for LeedsSEO.

    Congratulations on the job btw ;)

    Found this website through some random searching on Google and it came up Rank 3 for ‘SEO Leeds’. Therefore I reckon you’d get some nice coinage for the domain as Mark has said above!

    I’d rather someone kept it running though – i’m the only SEO guy at my firm in Leeds and it gets kinda lonely. I’ve tried to tell my colleagues why SEO is cool, but each time I see their eyes glaze over – Lights are on but no ones home stare ;)
