About Ben Steele

I build content strategies that become case studies of client success. I create ambitious lead generation campaigns that conjure deals and inspire audience trust. I deliver SEO results: new top keywords, traffic, leads, and monthly revenue with content. Definitely not three goblins in a trench coat. My commitments: Delivering revenue with content that builds trust, empathy, and buy-in. Helping my colleagues shine by facilitating their best work ever. Helping experts cut through noise and refine their signal. Approaching content as a product. My experience: Collaborative editor, SEO, and strategist. Eight years on SEO agency and publisher teams. I lead multidisciplinary content projects that delight B2B audiences. My work builds organic SEO presence and generates leads that convert into signed deals. → Senior/managing editor of industry-leading content in SEO and PPC. → Writer of impactful SEO education content that is loved by new and experienced marketers. → Digital marketer, content strategist, SEO and lead generation specialist. → Creative with a passion for data and analysis. → Collaborative leader with cultural and personal humility. I took ownership of Search Engine Journal's ebooks program and doubled average downloads in half the average promotion time. Here's a neat case study about the 1-month ROI one of my projects delivered: I'm ridiculously adaptable, just as comfortable building content strategy or writing content as I am building technical SEO audit templates for marketers to use: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_36ImKB3eVuwGK7bHW1pJa6q-Lki2BbbCrRPbEj4wIo/edit?gid=1672581071#gid=1672581071 At VELOX I led content initiatives that drove impactful ROI for clients. I took on difficult, niche SEO campaigns across multiple verticals, including regulated industries. I edited for 20+ clients at a time, each with unique voices and style guides. I'm seeking the next chapter in my career. I would be perfect for editorial and content strategy roles on collaborative teams that make really cool things.
