I had the honor of having Dixon Jones stop by my office and sit down and talk search. Dixon has a rich history in the search space, dating back to the 90s and still one of the most active members in the search community over 20-years later.

Dixon and I spoke about a lot of topics including:

  • The old days of Frontpage website development and doing SEO for those sites.
  • He started his own search marketing agency, Receptional, in the late 90s that is still going strong.
  • He helped grow one of the most popular SEO toolsets, Majestic.
  • Now he is working on a new toolset named InLinks.

We also talked about some of his contributions to the industry, from the old days at WebmasterWorld as a moderator, to being the MC at the Search Awards show, him speaking around the world all the time and so much more.
