It’s getting harder and harder to market yourself as an SEO professional. Here are 10 personal SEO brands to learn from.

SEO is one of the fastest growing industry. If hardly anyone knew it 10 years ago, these days it’s well-known (yet still hardly understood) and every other forum user is ready to announce himself an SEO expert.

How to stand out? How to become a recognizable SEO brand? Well, there’s obviously no recipe but here are 10 SEO brands to get inspired.

SEOs who have come up with particular branding elements

Smart branding makes a huge difference. But it’s not just about a cool website design and recognizable logo. It’s something unique, something that people can easily remember and instantly associate with you. Here are a few coolest examples in our industry:
