Paddy Moogan, the former florist and law student, is the co-founder of Aira, a digital marketing agency based in the UK. Paddy is a well-known SEO and has been working in SEO since 2004 when he was meant to be studying for a law degree and got bored. He was the VP of Operations at Distilled before leaving in 2015 to start Aira. Paddy is also the author of “The Link Building Book” and has spoken at a number of different conferences including SMX Sydney, MozCon, BrightonSEO, SES, Marketing Festival and SAScon.

In this podcast, Paddy wanted to talk with us about the lessons he has learned in running an SEO agency for the last two years. Like I said earlier, he started Aira in 2015 and it has now grown to 12 people! What has he learned and what advice can he give to other agency owners. Plus, we saw a great presentation that Paddy did at last year’s BrightonSEO conference called, “Sustainable Content Marketing.” We wanted to discuss with him some of the points he made in that presentation and how you can use them to help build a sustainable content marketing plan for your business or clients (plus earn some great links!)
