I can\u2019t wait to get started in helping the Polaris <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polarisagency.com\/us\/\">SEO Agency<\/a> guide journeys online and make a real difference to client\u2019s search performance.<\/p>\n<h2>My Background<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-17104\" src=\"https:\/\/www.polarisagency.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Sam-marlow-seo-exec-introduction-image.jpg\" alt=\"A picture of Sam Marlow wearing a blue shirt, sat against a dark brick background\" width=\"350\" height=\"475\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I found my way into SEO through online content and blog writing, starting in a content focused role for an e-commerce conglomerate. While I\u2019ve always enjoyed writing, I came to realise that getting people<\/p>\n<p>to see what I\u2019d published online didn\u2019t just come down to writing something that was nice to read \u2013 there were a whole range of factors that influenced how and if web users could even find it in the first place. This was my introduction to SEO.<\/p>\n<p>From this starting point, my role and responsibilities began to expand further and further into SEO. I started to delve into different aspects with an initial focus on content and on-page optimisation, and then expanding into the more technical side, and the more I learned the more I was able to put this knowledge to use. All this learning began to feel like it had paid off when I saw our brands start to climb up the SERP. This process of learning, implementation, and then seeing the results directly on google itself gave me a huge amount of confidence and made me even more sure that I\u2019d made the right decision.<\/p>\n<h2>My Goals in SEO<\/h2>\n<p>Now at Polaris, I\u2019m eager to continue the process of learning, adapting, implementing and creating success in SEO. While content and on-page have been my \u201cbread and butter\u201d, the technical side of SEO is where I really want to grow and evolve my skillset. Polaris has a wealth of experience that I just can\u2019t wait to tap into, and I\u2019d love to get to the point where I have a strong skillset throughout all areas of SEO which I can apply to both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polarisagency.com\/us\/seo\/ecommerce-seo\/\">ecommerce<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polarisagency.com\/us\/seo\/b2b-seo\/\">B2B<\/a> SEO Services.<\/p>\n<h2>My Interests Beyond SEO<\/h2>\n<p>Writing is something that I also pursue out of work, with an eventual aim of getting a piece of fiction published traditionally. I\u2019ve finished one manuscript and I\u2019m in the process of submitting to agents but, if that doesn\u2019t land, I\u2019ve learned from that experience and I\u2019m ready to start creating a second piece.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of that I love spending time in nature, whether that\u2019s the local park or getting out into the countryside to hike or camp &#8211; and try to stay pretty active in my day-to-day life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi, my name is Sam, and I\u2019ve just joined the Polaris team as an SEO executive!
