About Me
Hi, I’m Vlad Polyanskiy. I’m an SEO manager from Ukraine.
Currently a digital nomad in Asia.
Professional Background
I’m an SEO manager who helps businesses get more traffic, revenue, and leads. Most of my experience is in competitive grey and black hat niches. On top of that, I’m really good at managing projects and teams. I can get things off the ground and keep them running smoothly to make sure we succeed.
Martial Arts
Outside of my professional life, I’m a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, which I’ve received in June 2020.
I like to organize BJJ seminars in Kyiv and other cities. Notable seminars are with Gregor Strakl (10th Planet Black Belt) and Craig Jones (#2 grappler in the world and Australia’s best).
SEO
I’ve been a speaker at SEO conferences and hosted SEO podcasts, here’s a few of the projects I was involved in:

- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7k-6xCacgM – building an SEO-team for shared.domains link service with Dmitry Sokhach
