Sovereign SEO
Sovereign SEO is a first-principles approach to search that treats authority as capital – strategically allocating it across a website to deliver compounding returns, rather than blindly following industry narratives designed to serve platform and agency incentives.
It rejects template-led SEO and instead builds systems that prioritise Machine Experience and control, as opposed to superficial ‘best practices’, ensuring long-term leverage regardless of algorithm shifts or interface changes.
Machine Experience
Machine Experience (MX) is the evolution of User Experience (UX). It is the discipline of designing websites for AI as well as humans – ensuring crawlers can parse, navigate, and evaluate your content with precision. As AI and large language models like ChatGPT reshape discovery, MX is emerging as a vital foundation for visibility. Ignore it, and even the best SEO delivery becomes ineffective.
Where Sovereign SEO defines the strategy, MX delivers the execution layer that provides meaningful visibility your business can depend on.

What clients say about working with mike
Collaborating with Mike on the MX Engine restructuring for Enviro Waste was a game-changer. His expertise in shaping our SEO and online architecture laid the foundation for our digital strategy, propelling our brand forward.
The St. Clement artefact campaign, conceived and led by Mike, was a testament to his innovative approach, marrying SEO excellence with compelling PR. This dual thrust not only amplified our reach but significantly bolstered our Google rankings and organic traffic, surpassing all our projections.
Mike's strategic vision was instrumental in achieving these remarkable results, making an indelible impact on our growth trajectory. His ability to turn complex challenges into award-winning strategies is exactly why any forward-thinking company would benefit from his consulting prowess.
Mike was instrumental during our platform migration from Magento to Shopify. Despite significant challenges, including a major cull of the site's content and product offerings, Mike's strategic approach to SEO ensured that we maintained as much visibility as possible while improving traffic from ultra high-value terms.
Additionally his expertise in technical auditing and competitive analysis was invaluable while navigating a restructuring of the brand's digital ecosystem. I highly recommend Mike for any complex SEO initiatives that require thoughtful and effective execution.
"I've worked with Mike for several years. Bringing him and his team in at a previous company to solve some specific SEO challenges. Mike is very knowledgeable, great for bouncing ideas off and for developing big vision SEO strategies that can be executed within the confines of resource frameworks.
And, most importantly Mike gets results!"
