About Me, Jim Westergren
Philosophical Statement
I believe in free will and I consider myself responsible for all that happens or not happens in my life now and in the future. I do not believe in luck or faith.
SEO, Search Engine Optimizer
I nearly won the biggest SEO contest ever and was featured in 7 major newspapers in US and Sweden including Wall Street Journal and Washington Post. My articles and guides on the subject has been recognized and been recommended by many international industry leaders in the field of SEO.
I run my own successful SEO company that was earlier specialized in link building but this changed direction during the summer of 2007 to instead offer consultant services to bigger companies. A Swedish presentation of my consultant services can be seen at SEO-konsult.se. The name of my company is Jim Westergren AB.
Web Designer
I build and develop web sites by hand coding using the Web Developer extension for firefox and EditPlus 2. Some examples of web sites I constructed includes this blog and ssfp.se.
Writer
I write short stories, essays and novels. My first novel, NEO, is written in Swedish and is soon finished. I have another 2 novels to write. Philosophical Science Fiction is my favorite subject to write and read about. I also write articles about SEO, on forums and on this blog of course.
Thinker/Philosopher
I have studied more than a thousand pages about philosophy of man, the deep questions, personal development, ethics and morals, how to think, communication and a whole lot more. I sometimes also write about this.
Investor
I like to invest money in places in which I know they will grow. This could be web site projects, the stock market or in new company start ups.
General
I am born 1982 and I live in south Sweden, Malmö, with my wonderful fiancee Neyda.
History
I quit school when I was 17 and moved to Denmark to work in an elite international organization. I worked there 5 years and it changed my life forever. I returned back to Sweden in December 2004, learned how internet worked and started my company a few months later.
Future plans
During the summer of 2008 I will move to Bolivia in South America with Neyda, build a house, raise children and write my books.
