Why Stuff Sucks

As an agency, we don't refer client work out lightly as our name is attached to whoever we bring in, so I like to find trusted and honest partners. We've sent SEO work to Miles and the Why Stuff Sucks team, including referring Lightman Immigration, and have always been so happy with the outcome. Miles is straight with you, explains the reasoning behind what he's doing, outlines limitations, and keeps up with where search is actually heading instead of running a five-year-old playbook. He's also one of the few people I've come across building real strategy around AI search (AEO/GEO) — treating it as something to measure and win. One of our referred clients saw AI search sessions grow 37% year over year off that approach which has obviously made us very popular! Easy recommendation.

We've been working with Miles for a number of years and he's been a valuable partner for our marketing team. He has helped us think through our SEO strategy and stay on top of changes in AI search. SEO now accounts for about 29% of our conversions, and his guidance has played a big role in that. Very knowledgeable & easy to work!

We've been working with Why Stuff Sucks on our SEO strategy and the results speak for themselves. AI/LLM-driven traffic is up nearly 200% year over year, and organic plus AI search contacts are up 66%. Miles is the reason. He's a sharp strategic thinker who clearly understands where search is heading, especially around GEO and AI search visibility. He doesn't just show you numbers, he explains what they mean and what to do about it. Highly recommend if you're serious about SEO that's built for how people search today.

Miles is the one industry leader I completely trust for his SEO expertise, his integrity, and his overall investment in seeing his clients and their companies grow to the next level and beyond. His short- and long-term growth strategies are proven and helped catapult our existing and new websites to the top of search-results pages. There is no comparison to his experience, especially with AI search. I continually turn to him as I have navigated various companies and industries over the last decade (Design Group among others), with support navigating the highs and lows of business shifts. I strongly suggest you partner with him for any stage growth, whether or not you have an existing internal team. You will all learn something most valuable from Miles, and have a long-term growth partner.

As a UX consultant, I brought Miles in for some SEO work for the CSS corporate website. The client was very please and continued to work with Miles even after my work was complete.
