MATCH MEDIA APPOINTS HEAD OF SEO – ADDS TO SERVICE OFFERING

Sydney, 15 December, 2011:  James Simmons, Director of Match Media, announced today the appointment of Alex Asigno as the agency’s first Head of SEO.

Alex has spent 10 years in online marketing, with a core focus on search.

“We are delighted to have someone of Alex’s profile and knowledge to join our team.  It is incredibly important that we ensure our clients receive the best possible product.  In Alex we have someone who will offer clients a new way to think about SEO in an area that, if managed properly, will be one of the most effective forms of ROI for our clients,” James said.

“With media agencies becoming far more specialised in online, they are in a position to provide a truly integrated offering with their communication strategies.  I am especially excited to join Match as they have a unique client led proposition and an amazing team who push the boundaries of media convention,” Alex added.
