About Alcander's founder: Phil Martindale

 

Phil's passions, outside work, are listening to contemporary jazz, composing and playing the piano, Roman Polanski movies, skiing, country walks, Spanish Red Wine, Real Ale and Mediterranean and Thai food.

His work related passions (because, yes, he is passionate about his work) are Search Engine Optimisation (more recently focusing on link building), web application development (e.g. he is the main developer of LinkEyes - link building research manager). He is constantly on the look out for content for Alcander's Link Strategist Newsletter which he acquires by observation, experimentation and first-hand experience.

Phil has a background of providing SEO services since 2002 and, before that, working on e-commerce websites, setting up company Intranets, requirements engineering, developing some of the first WAP applications (for an assortment of British companies). In the 80s, based in Switzerland, he was responsible for Quality Assurance tools and Development Environments for Swiss/Swedish ABB.

Phil lives with his partner, Caroline, in Forest Hill, South-East London.
