Our Story
How SEOGidi started
SEOGidi was founded on 1 August 2021 in Lagos, Nigeria by Wole Oduwole, an SEO and digital growth expert with over 10 years of experience scaling startups and emerging businesses.
The founding insight was simple but important: most Nigerian and African businesses with strong products were invisible online. Not because their product was weak, because those customers searched, found someone else, and never came back.
Wole built SEOGidi to fix that. Starting with a research-first methodology, market demand before strategy, competitor gaps before content, SEOGidi grew rapidly. Within three years, the agency had served over 10,000 businesses across 30+ countries and was recognised as the #1 SEO agency in both Nigeria and Africa.
Today, SEOGidi’s team of SEO strategists, content specialists, and digital marketers continues to deliver data-driven SEO that turns organic search into a reliable, compounding growth engine for businesses that rely on being found.
