International SEO Consultant
For ten years, I have been building web businesses and helping brands attract qualified visitors through search engine optimisation (SEO): the art of ranking at the top of Google without paying for ads.
I co-founded Sixtrone in Paris, then Shine First and Darkshine in Malta. Today, from Bangkok, I run Darkshine: more than 890 websites and 2 million visits a month.
My approach is known as “grey hat”. Between the most cautious methods (white hat) and the most aggressive ones (black hat), I strike the right balance between growth speed and safety for every project.
From Paris to Bangkok: three companies in ten years
Straight out of school, I co-founded Sixtrone with five partners: an agency building e-commerce websites on PrestaShop, created from the ground up. It generates over €700,000 in revenue every year. That is where I discovered SEO, and then made it my specialty.
I kept working in e-commerce until I met a French-speaking partner. Together, we founded Shine First: five Shopify apps and several thousand downloads in one year. We then created Darkshine, combining our development and SEO strengths around traffic acquisition and affiliate marketing. The network then counted around fifteen websites.
We came together in Bangkok to focus 100% on Darkshine. Today, more than 890 websites generate 2 million visits a month across some fifty countries, and several million euros in revenue every year.
Three companies, one specialty: traffic
Each company added a building block: PrestaShop e-commerce with Sixtrone, Shopify apps with Shine First. Darkshine brings both together, development and SEO, for traffic acquisition and affiliate marketing in finance, gaming and software.
Affiliate marketing means recommending partner brands from our own websites and earning a commission on the customers we bring them. Learn more at darkshine.io.

Everything it takes to rank, and stay there

Precise, friendly, and clear and transparent in his communication. A superb first project. Thank you, Edwin!
Edwin completed the project in record time, and was very available and attentive. I will work with him again as soon as the opportunity arises.
Edwin offered me a suitable solution to optimise my website before moving on to improving its visibility (which I will no doubt hire him for again). He is also skilled in marketing and surrounded by a team of professionals covering every aspect of building or redesigning a website. The offer is therefore complete and serious. Communication is pleasant: he “translates” technical and marketing jargon into language beginners can understand, which makes the collaboration all the more interesting. I now have a brand-new professional website that I can manage on my own, to expand it and keep it up to date. Thank you, Edwin, and see you soon.
Edwin handled this project masterfully, meeting the original deadline despite a major technical difficulty! He was tasked with developing 2 CMS landing pages for my PrestaShop store from a mock-up. The result: 2 editable pages that match the mock-up perfectly, plus a video tutorial my team can use! I highly recommend him for the quality of his work, his proactive approach to problems, his constant communication and his extremely helpful network. Thank you, Edwin!
