Management

Julian Strote

CEO

Julian built his first website in 2003 and has been doing Online Marketing since 2005 when he started selling SEO eBooks.

This was followed by numerous independent web projects, including one of the largest online portals in the field of sales, and working for the then-fastest-growing online marketing startup.

At rankeffect, Julian takes care of the strategic development, expansion, marketing and consulting of the agency. He also works as a lecturer for Online Marketing topics.

David Biging

COO

The course for David’s path to online marketing was already set in the early 2000s while exploring the Internet on IRC servers such as QuakeNet or UnderNet.

His fascination with the Internet ultimately led him to study communication and media science, where he became aware of search engine optimization and eventually rankeffect.

From SEO intern to Chief Operating Officer, he now bears the main responsibility for the agency’s day-to-day business and looks after clients, people and processes.

Ludwig Langer

CTO

Before joining rankeffect, Ludwig Langer managed large IT projects in the telecommunications sector and saw numerous well-known companies from the inside as a management consultant. Over the past two years, he has worked intensively on the topic of AI and its application in online marketing.

At rankeffect, he will primarily focus on the increased demands on tools and technology and introduce and expand technical innovations in relation to artificial intelligence.

The evolution of rankeffect

rankeffect was founded with the aim of offering every customer exactly what he or she is looking for in regards to Online Marketing whilst never having to skip personal support.

We want to be different, to set ourselves apart from the many other agencies. Not every goal is achievable and you need to know that. For this reason, we are always honest with you, even if this means that not everything we say is met with approval.

Package prices? Not with us! Every industry is different and our services are always tailored to you and your company. We want you to be successful and it is our duty as a service provider in Online Marketing to do everything we can.

The basis for an open and transparent cooperation are many years of experience in the evolution and implementation of SEO and SEA projects in a wide variety of industries. Let’s find your potentials together and do something different for once to give you a head start on your competitors.

We stay true to our philsophy

1

Transparent billing

We offer very good quality at a good price. Transparent billing based on hourly rates without a minimum budget or package prices are therefore the standard with us. We will only consider our work provided when you are truly satisfied.

2

People before machine

We optimize websites not only for Search Engines, but primarily for users and your potential customers. Nowadays, usability, fast loading times and a modern web design are just as important as choosing the right keywords.

3

No bullshit

For us, advising sometimes also means advising against! We have to refuse over 60% of all inquiries because of incorrect or unrealistic expectations. Online Marketing is the most measurable and effective form of advertising. But it’s not magic.

4

We adhere to guidelines

All of the methods we use conform to the standard Google guidelines. We rely on long-term success for the benefit of our customers. Are you ready to take risks? Also OK. We will inform you about possible dangers.
