A short biography
1986 to 1995: First computers
I started IT with an Exl 100 (4,9 Mhz, its 1000 less powerful than modern CPU) and the BASIC language, then Amiga 500 & 1200 and then PC
1996-7: HTML
When I discovered HTML 4 it was like a revolution. I created a roms website (games for emulator of SNES), with a newsletter containing a review of each game uploaded. Every single day for months I did this… until the hosting company deleted all the files, wiping out several months of uploads — the equivalent of work at 1€ per hour.”
1998: Dynamic Website
Microsoft ASP was a revolution for me. Using an Access DB with ASP, I created my first web search engine with human-crawled pages 😉
This time, it was a search engine to find ROMs for the SNES (Super Nintendo), with about 2,000 games. I wasn’t hosting them anymore, but instead was referencing them one by one in a database.
You can still enjoy this beauty on archive.org .
2000: First SEO experimentations.
There was a page stuffed with keywords, just for the bots, accessible from a one-pixel image link 🙂 It was enough to trick AltaVista 😉 It was, actually… here:

I also created “TOP Snes Roms,” a Perl script that ranked websites depending on the number of visitors they brought to the page. A good trick to attract visitors (well, a long time ago ;)).
I let you enjoy this beauty, and the Ad on top: “SNES ROMS CENTER / A search engine, it’s so easier…“:
In 2000 it was normal to host a guestbook page. The comments were pretty funny.
It was normal at this time to receive insults, of all sorts. And of course people would reply: NO, THIS IS THE BEST WEBSITE, CONTINU ! 😉
So, this project occupied most of my nights for several years. Let’s just say it was difficult to combine school and passion…
Then, I studied IT applied to Management (SQL, Excel, Access…). I must say, it felt pretty trivial after having done it for fun for years 😉
Then, I studied Economics at the University of Picardy Jules Verne. What an interesting jump. All my trust in Marx’s theories collapsed quickly 😉 I became a Keynesian, and then, of course, a follower of Friedman 😉
During an internship at Liligo.fr, I discovered that SEO was actually a job. I quickly fell in love with this alchemy combining technical aspects, semantics, UX, business, etc.
I earned a Master’s degree in Economics, International Management, and E-business, which was very interesting.
Right after my internship, I wrote a blog article about a clever link-building trick. In the post, I mentioned that I was looking for another internship. I was contacted by several companies and agencies, and I picked Resoneo, an SEO/SEA agency based in Paris that worked mainly with major accounts 🙂
