Digital Savages

I co-founded Digital Savages (brand: SEO Savages) with Robert Kowalski. We’re a fractional growth team — two founders who do the work directly. Maximum six clients at a time, vertical exclusivity, no junior account managers.

What We Do

We run four practice areas:

Programmatic SEO — Building hundreds or thousands of data-driven pages that rank for long-tail keywords at scale. Template-based, database-driven page generation. We grew Gyfted from zero to 1.2 million organic users per year using this approach, with a 27%+ sitewide conversion rate and 32% month-over-month growth sustained over a full year.

AI SEO / AI Optimization — Optimizing brand visibility in LLM-generated answers across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. We build brand signals through earned media, place content on sources LLMs actually rely on (Reddit, Quora, YouTube), and create citation-generating assets like original research, calculators, and interactive tools.

Product-led SEO — Turning the product itself into an organic growth engine. Free tools that solve real problems, user-generated content at scale, data products that attract citations, and in-product indexable experiences. We care about engagement and conversion, not just traffic numbers.

Fractional SEO — We embed directly into the founder’s workflow — Slack, WhatsApp, weekly strategic meetings. No keyword reports for the sake of reporting. We move fast because startup speed demands it.

How We Work

We take on early-stage and growth-stage tech startups, typically post-product-market-fit, where organic acquisition is a viable channel. Our clients include companies in talent assessment, legal tech, AI health diagnosis, AdTech, and corporate law. We say no to companies that aren’t a good fit — and we’re upfront about it.

The philosophy is systems over manual effort. Everything we build is designed to compound: more pages, more traffic, more conversions, without linear increases in work. We publish extensively on our methodology — guides on programmatic SEO, AI optimization, and product-led growth — partly because writing forces clarity, partly because the best clients find us through the work itself.
