This week, Francois Goube—CEO of Cogniteev and the founder of Oncrawl, the “world’s most reliable Onsite SEO crawler and log analyzer”—has agreed to be our guest on Search Talk Live. Obviously, we couldn’t be more excited.

Goube’s first introduction to SEO was in the development of a job search engine in Europe. In the end, it kindled a fiery pursuit of search engine understanding that led to questionable “grey hat” techniques, but at the same time led him to become an ambassador for the renowned backlink checker, Majestic.

His current venture, Oncrawl—a facet of a large suite of services offered by Cogniteev—is designed to identify potential issues with the SEO of your website. It can track how current users are navigating the website, and how those activities are affecting your web rankings. In the coming months, Oncrawl will be expanding beyond France with an eye on the East Coast as their US headquarters.

Currently residing in Bordeaux, Goube enjoys the fact that the “greatest wine in the world” can be found right in his backyard. When not managing his company, he is raising two children. At one point he was a semi-professional surfer, and he spent his youth taking to the waves every day after school.

Francois is a long way from home, so we need some good questions to make him feel welcome! Tweet us using the hashtag #searchtalklive, or you can email us using caleb@searchtalklive or robert@searchtalklive.
