After 4 years studying to become an engineer, Max decided he didn't want a life spent behind a desk poring over statistics and measurements and turned to his love of writing for a career as a print reporter in the Westcountry and London.

He graduated to the subs' desk, editing newspapers in Cambridge, Plymouth, Tyneside and even Fleet Street before taking up the responsibility of running TIME magazine's European Website.

In 7 years at TIME he did less and less journalism and more and more website optimization, so it was a natural progression to move to full blown SEO for big names such as Regus Holdings and Time Out London, and eventually working as a senior search consultant for brands including Sky TV, lastminute.com and Hilton hotels, where latterly he was global SEO chief.

Max now spends his days poring over statistics and measurements for successful websites and loves every minute of it. He's still writing.
