Mike Belasco

President

Honing his skills in the early 90s during the dot com boom, Mike Belasco worked for online industry giants Sun Microsystems and Level 3 Communications. He jumped ship from corporate America and decided to captain his own boat, establishing relationships with web designers and other online marketing professionals. Mike found a niche assisting web designers and other marketing professionals expand their offering to include SEO services without having to specialize in the ever-changing space. This strategy was successful enough to turn seOverflow into one of Denver’s 2010 & 2011 Fastest Growing Companies according to the Denver Business Journal. Expanding on the success of seOverflow Mike founded ConversionIQ in 2009 with business partner Keith Hagen. ConversionIQ offers website conversion optimization services to companies directly and via their web agencies. Mike regularly speaks at national and international industry events and conferences such as Search Marketing Expo (SMX), Online Marketing Summit (OMS), Search Engine Strategies Expo (SES), Business Marketing Association Events (BMA), and many others. Mike is also an instructor covering Local Search for the Online Marketing Institute (OMI). Mike and his team launched LocalSearchToolKit.com to assist SEO professionals in analyzing Google Places Results. Oh, did we forget to mentioned that Mike is an avid fly fisherman and digs the band Phish, hence the above boat analogy.

Geek Stuff: Contributing Writer - WebProNews.com and LocalSearchNews.net, certified Yahoo Search Marketing Ambassador, B.S. Business Information Systems – University of Colorado - Boulder.

His favorite SEO problem to solve: Both technical SEO problems as well as developing and executing creative link bait campaigns.

If Mike was an animal he would be a ...... A fish or a dog. Or maybe a dog that swims a lot.

Random fact about Mike: His grandfather invented the toilet on the Space Shuttle, no kidding.

What will his daughter serve you for tea? Cappuccino rice (we don’t know what that is, either)
