You joined the organisation and within days, it was clear: the website wasn’t keeping up with the business. It didn’t reflect the strength of the brand, the maturity of the organisation, or the sophistication of the market you operate in. It felt dated visually, structurally and strategically.

Hey there! The second half of the year is upon us already and the summer break is slooowly coming to an end. In this edition of the Fullstack Forward we discuss changes to the online search landscape and with it the emergence of the term GEO–in the footsteps of SEO.
