Extraordinary Problem Solvers & Creative Visionaries

Origin Story

SwishDM was founded by experienced digital marketer Jonathan Kiekbusch to offer SEO services with Radical Transparency™️. We prioritize what you actually need, with no over-inflated, templated services. Our goal is to earn our keep as quickly as possible, so we focus on ROI first.

One of the main frustrations Jonathan felt when setting up SwishDM was that too many SEO companies keep their processes a secret. There seems to be an air of “dark magic” around processes and SEO methods. That’s why we like to put transparency front and centre.

We favour talent over geography, so our team’s based all around the globe, from Kentucky to Hanoi. That means you get prompt replies, thanks to our team working across five time zones.

This is How We Do It

SEO sometimes get a bad reputation. And to be fair, it’s not unfounded. Some agencies and consultants don’t do their due diligence and never truly understand their client’s brand. Instead, they just whip out their cookie-cutter strategies and give every client the exact same experience. But quality SEO needs a little more finesse.

We get to know your business inside out, to fully understand how your brand works and what your priorities are. Then, we design a bespoke strategy to suit you. Our goal is always to “pay for ourselves” through ROI as quickly as possible. And with no complex staff hierarchies, everyone on your project works together to give you our best possible service.

Mission Statement:

We deliver custom, transparent, results-driven SEO strategies to accelerate digital growth and sustain long-term success for our clients.

Unlocking SEO Success with Expert Guidance.

OUR TEAM

We’d love to hear from you

Having a fully remote team means we’re able to hire the best talent available, regardless of location.

While our main office is in Brighton, England, our team is spread across various countries, collaborating seamlessly to deliver results—no matter where we are.

Jonathan Kiekbusch
Managing Director
Brighton, England

With over 12 years of experience in SEO and digital marketing, Jonathan leads SwishDM as Managing Director, specializing in business development and campaign strategy. His expertise lies in solving complex SEO challenges for large companies, crafting strategies that drive real results.

Beyond the day-to-day, Jonathan enjoys sharing his insights at SEO conferences and on podcasts, helping businesses navigate the ever-evolving digital landscape.

When he’s not optimizing campaigns, you might find him perfecting the art of smoking meat, enjoying a good cigar, or diving into new languages—because mastering algorithms and mastering flavors go hand in hand.

Lyndsay Kiekbusch
Director of Content
Brighton, England

Since 2015, Lyndsay has been at the heart of content strategy, specializing in eCommerce content creation. As SwishDM’s Director of Content, she bridges the gap between site owners, SEOs, and writers to craft highly optimized content that ranks and converts.

What she loves most about her role is the ever-evolving nature of digital marketing—no two days are the same, and there’s always something new to learn.

Outside of work, you’ll find Lyndsay experimenting in the kitchen or diving into the world of quilting—an interest she hopes to turn into a full-fledged hobby.

Zeke Daldy
Director of Operations
Brighton, England

As SwishDM’s Director of Operations, Zeke has been immersed in SEO and digital marketing since 2015, bringing a decade of experience to the team. His role keeps the agency running smoothly, ensuring strategies, workflows, and data-driven decisions align for maximum impact.

While operations and data analysis are key parts of his job, it’s the people he works with that make it truly rewarding.

Outside of work, Zeke is either gaming, traveling, or (by his own admission) not doing much else. But hey, when you’re great at what you do, why complicate things?

Thanh Nguyen
Head of SEO
Hanoi, Vietnam

Since 2013, Thanh has been deep in the world of SEO, mastering the technical and on-page elements that make websites thrive. Starting his digital marketing journey at university, he quickly climbed the ranks, leading SEO efforts at multiple companies before joining SwishDM in 2019.

As our Head of SEO, Thanh thrives on tackling complex challenges across different clients and industries. The tougher the problem, the more he enjoys solving it.

Outside of work, you’ll probably find Thanh in the gym—six days a week, no less! He’s also a casual basketball fan and a dedicated language learner, currently competing in the Amethyst league for Korean and Sapphire league for Japanese on Duolingo.

Scott Law
SEO Specialist
Brighton, England

With over five years of experience in SEO, Scott specializes in keyword research and content strategy, helping brands connect with their audiences through smart, data-driven approaches.

What sets Scott apart is his passion for collaboration—whether it’s working with the team to develop custom tools for clients or creating innovative internal solutions that make workflows smoother.

Outside of work, Scott swaps algorithms for asphalt, enjoying the freedom of riding motorcycles. Whether it’s fine-tuning content strategies or navigating winding roads, he’s always looking for the best route forward.

Sean Shuter
Lead Copy Writer
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

With nearly three decades of experience in digital marketing and copywriting—and nine years specializing in SEO—Sean is a master of the written word. As SwishDM’s Lead Copywriter, he crafts persuasive, on-brand messaging that not only ranks but truly resonates with audiences.

Sean thrives on the challenge of capturing each client’s unique voice, ensuring their brand stands out in a crowded digital landscape.

Outside of work, he channels his creativity into a unique passion—composing soundtracks for imaginary films. Whether it’s crafting compelling copy or scoring the next great (hypothetical) cinematic masterpiece, storytelling is always at the heart of what he does.

Dan Cumberbatch
SEO Specialist
Cambridge, England

With over 22 years of experience in digital marketing, Dan brings an abundance of knowledge to SwishDM, specializing in keyword analysis and content strategy. His expertise helps brands create content that not only ranks but truly resonates.

Beyond SEO, Dan is always on the hunt for the latest AI tools, pushing their limits to develop custom automations that compliment workflows and boost efficiency across the agency.

When he’s not optimizing search strategies or fine-tuning AI processes, you’ll find Dan staying active with fitness training—because peak performance isn’t just for websites!

Lina Gakh
SEO Assistant
Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine

Lina joined SwishDM in 2022 as an SEO Assistant, specializing in content uploading, information research, and data entry. Her keen eye for detail helps keep content organized and optimized across various projects.

One of her favorite aspects of the job is the flexibility it offers—allowing her to balance productivity with personal passions.

When she’s not working behind the scenes on SEO, you’ll likely find Lina outdoors, exploring new trails and embracing her love for hiking.

Sean Watts
Content Manager
Leeds, England

As SwishDM’s Content Manager, Sean plays a key role in crafting high-quality content strategies for clients. From planning monthly content calendars to editing and refining blog posts, he ensures that every piece is optimized before it reaches the client for approval.

With nearly four years of experience in content creation, Sean made the leap into SEO and digital marketing in early 2024—and hasn’t looked back since. He thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, constantly learning from his colleagues, writers, and clients.

Outside of work, Sean is a dedicated music enthusiast with an ever-growing vinyl collection (approaching 100 records and counting). He also dabbles in guitar and bass—though he humbly admits he’s no rockstar just yet. And when he’s not immersed in music, he’s cheering on Leeds United.

Molly Wolfe
Content Editor
Brighton, England

Molly is a key part of SwishDM’s content team, ensuring that every piece of content meets the agency’s high standards. As a Content Editor, she supports writers with clear scopes, editorial guidance, and final polish—turning great drafts into top-tier content that ranks and resonates.

With over four years of experience in content writing and editing, SEO has been at the core of her work from the start, from keyword strategy to on-page refinement. Beyond the technical side, she thrives in a collaborative environment, where a fun and supportive Slack channel keeps the remote team connected.

Outside of work, Molly takes her love of words to the stage, performing spoken word poetry at local events in Brighton. She’s also pursuing an MA in Creative Writing—though perhaps her most intriguing claim to fame is that she once ran away to join a circus (but promises she won’t do it again).
