Anatolii Ulitovskyi

I’m Anatolii Ulitovskyi.

I first came across the online business world in 2008 when I created my first online shop in Ukraine with my partners at the time, my two elder brothers.

My brothers had been living in the USA; I had been in Ukraine.

Our business module was simple – procure cheaper products in the US and China – transport and sell in Ukraine at a profit.

My online store sold electronic gadgets for Ukrainian customers.

I used many different types of paid advertisements in order to increase my sales.

Paid ads worked perfectly fine, but during that time it was not enough to grow my business, as many other online shops were constantly popping up in Ukraine.

Then I got to know SEO by utilizing it for our online store.

I hired three different marketing agencies over a period of two years, but they didn’t provide tangible results.

I ended up paying for SEO for two years, but I got no results and no organic traffic.

These agencies left me only one choice, I needed to learn SEO myself.

 

During this learning curve, I figured out what types of problems existed on my website.

My team fixed the site’s existing technical errors, wrote unique texts for my content and bought as many external backlinks as possible.

My organic traffic increased significantly and I ranked on Google and Yandex TOP-10 with many highly competitive keywords.

I was elated.

 

Unfortunately, in April 2012 Google released their new algorithm called Penguin.

My traffic plummeted dramatically and my business started to suffer.

There was simply not enough information on the Russian and Ukrainian internet on how to provide effective SEO results.

I then started to learn information from other English SEO blogs and resources.

I managed to recover my online store and ranked on the TOP-10 once again.

Because of my organic traffic growth, a few of my friends asked me to promote their websites too.

 

Thereafter I decided to open new website – seoquick.com.ua in order to sell SEO services.

My SEO agency has gone from strength to strength.

Unfortunately, the Ukrainian economy decreased dramatically after the revolution of 2013.

I needed to focus my attention on only one business.

I decided to quit the online shop.

In order to provide high-quality SEO services I read SEO blogs, marketing books, listened to 100’s of audio podcasts and watched SEO YouTube channels – something I do to this day.
