Experience & resultsBreaking B2B's September 2026 site documents technical SEO, SEO content and strategy, link building, conversion structure, Reddit marketing, YouTube marketing, AEO, GEO and LLM SEO. The agency states that senior SEOs run every account without junior hand-offs.

Social proofBreaking B2B publishes named testimonials and result pages. A 2024 Sitechecker interview independently identifies Sam as the founder and describes his move into B2B SEO consulting.
