About 1st on the List

Chris Genge began his search engine optimization company, 1st on the List, back in 1997 in beautiful Vancouver, BC, Canada. The Internet (World Wide Web) had become royalty-free just 4 years earlier, Google and Bing didn’t exist, and there were only 100,000+ websites at the time (today, there are 1.74+ billion websites and over 130 trillion web pages). Back then, Yahoo, Web Crawler, Netscape, Lycos, Excite, and Alta Vista were the dominant search engines. Today, it’s Google, Bing, and Facebook.

Our core SEO marketing staff has an average of 19+ years of experience in search engine optimization. We understand how the search engines work, and we can show you what your site will need to rank well. Let us help you get your website on the top of the search engine listings – in front of your customers and ahead of your competition. Call us toll-free at 1-888-262-6687.
