Blake Imeson’s Summary
I help websites rank better.
I am about to start my senior year at Grove City College. Graduating in 2010 with a degree in entrepreneurship.
Actively involved in the creation and reformulation of many websites and have a holistic approach to success on the web through SEO, Blogging, Graphic Design, and proper use of Social Media.
Being a "digital native" (can't remember a time without the internet) has given me a unique perspective on the development and future of the web.
