Sam is simply one of the best SEO and GEO resources I have worked with. When I stepped into leading our SEO/GEO function, Sam was an immediate and invaluable partner. His knowledge runs deep, but what truly sets him apart is his ability to communicate at every level of an organization. He presents with confidence and clarity to leadership while also speaking the technical language of the people doing the work. That combination is rare, and it made Sam an indispensable resource for our team. I hope to have the opportunity to work with him again.

I had the pleasure of working with Sam and Keyrise Consulting and our experience was better than hoped for. Sam's knowledge of the space and ability to clearly communicate the technical aspects of the work while tying it to our business needs was exactly what we were looking for during this phase of our growth. We were able to optimize hundreds of pages of content, generate a strategy, and plan for future growth. His in-depth analysis and strategic approach to content optimization not only enhanced our online presence but also led to measurable improvements in our KPIs. He took great care to connect with our team to really understand our unique needs and tailored his approach to help us achieve our goals. I highly recommend Sam and Keyrise Consulting to any business looking to enhance their digital presence and achieve substantial growth.

Sam joined our team before I came on board, and by the time I arrived, he’d already built a solid SEO roadmap that was exactly what the company needed. He wasn’t just there to execute on tasks—he was deeply involved in our strategy, adapting seamlessly to changes in direction, team structure, and any curveballs that came his way. It’s rare to find a consultant who’s willing to roll up their sleeves like Sam did. Sam didn’t just listen to what we needed; he really took it in and delivered high-quality work when and where it counted most. He was more than a tactician—he brainstormed with us, collaborated, and iterated alongside our team. … In short, Sam brought a mix of expertise, adaptability, and willingness to dive in that really set him apart. We’re incredibly grateful for his work and would recommend him in a heartbeat to any team looking for a true SEO partner.

Sam recently completed an SEO audit for us. Sam's deep technical expertise and attention to detail were evident from the first meeting. His ability to explain highly technical work to non-technical people was exceptional. Sam provided us with invaluable insights and easily actionable solutions. And he was a joy to work with throughout. I can't recommend Sam highly enough.

I had the pleasure of working with Sam Lee as an SEO consultant, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, Sam demonstrated exceptional expertise in SEO, showcasing a deep understanding of industry trends and best practices that significantly elevated our online presence. His communication skills were outstanding—clear, timely, and always tailored to our needs. He worked autonomously with remarkable efficiency and excellent time management, consistently delivering high-quality recommendations. Sam proved to be incredibly reliable and a true asset to our team. Whether for in-house projects or consulting work, I would gladly bring Sam on board again for any SEO-related initiatives.

Sam was amazing to work with. Honest, professional, creative and realistic. He helped me grow my business in a streamlined fashion while always remaining responsive and receptive. Super easy to maintain a working relationship with and to bounce ideas off of, even from a higher level business development standpoint. Sam is the kind of person you can lean on for strategy and long term market trends. Grateful for our time together.

Sam provided us with really thorough and helpful insights for our Content Performance & SEO Guidance project. He initially worked with us to conduct a content audit of all content across our site and then met with us several times before the presentation to ensure that the material being covered was relevant and helpful for our entire marketing team. During the presentation, he did a really great job of explaining what the audit meant and what the data was telling us without getting too technical and gave us helpful recommendations for SEO content creation that utilizes both an informational and journalistic viewpoint. He fielded questions with ease and really made sure he had an understanding of our organization in the context of the presentation. This was really helpful for our team in creating a path forward for SEO content creation and seeing how our content was performing across the website.

Sam is one of the most solid SEO strategists I have worked with in my career and would be an asset to any company in any capacity. He has the unique ability to take very complex issues and boil them down into digestible projects that when implemented will make a difference for your business. He also happens to be an awesome human being and is always willing to jump in and help while keeping a cool head. If you have the opportunity to work with him don't pass it up.

From conception, through proposition, to delivery, Sam owns professional services. Understanding that the client is not just struggling to grasp the material and the insights, but has limited resources (budget, team, capabilities, etc…) to continue down the path he's forging, Sam's constructed proposals include next steps that are catered, continue to softly hand-hold, and are available down the road should needs arise. That's the perfect service. Give me what I need, but don't leave me to fend for myself. Sam Lee, I'm grateful to have watched you work, and to have listened to your decade of experience. I pray SEOs get to work with Sam. Consummate colleague and professional.

Sam is someone I would recommend with all of your SEO needs as an organization. He truly understands the space and knows how to prioritize initiatives for the best of what you need to get done.

Sam is a smart, talented, strategic SEO specialist … I would love to work with Sam again as I have full confidence in his SEO chops.

I was briefly work colleagues with Sam at Conductor – and as of recently had an SEO consultation with him to get some answers on technical SEO that I was struggling with. Sam is an incredibly knowledgeable SEO and I found the consultation helpful. I would strongly recommend Sam for both an employee and his consulting firm, Keyrise.

Sam consistently delivered on strategy and tactical implementation of SEO best practices while managing customer expectations and educating teams on why it was impactful. I enjoyed Sam's professional demeanor and hope to work again with him in the future.

I’ve worked with Sam for three years and can’t think of a better person to have on the team. He is sharp and knowledgeable, and his inquisitive nature constantly drives him to conquer new heights. While he’s managed every aspect of our SEO campaign, it’s his heavy technical SEO background that made him so valuable to the team. Sam is a strategic thinker, a clear and eloquent presenter, and a highly skilled professional with unparalleled dedication to work. He is also one of the most positive people I know, who never loses his cool even in the most stressful circumstances and has a calming effect on those around him. I really miss working with him!
