About Me

Hi, I’m Ionut Constantinescu, and I’ve been navigating the digital marketing landscape for over a decade. My journey began with a solid foundation in Journalism, Public Relations, and Advertising, which taught me the fundamentals of compelling communication and audience engagement.

My Digital Journey

My career started in traditional media with my first role at a printed magazine, but I quickly recognized the shift toward digital. At 20, I built my first website, diving headfirst into web development and design.

By 22, I had launched my first SEO-focused ecommerce affiliate site, where I learned firsthand how search engines really work not from theory, but from real data and results.

Corporate Experience That Shaped My Expertise

I spent three pivotal years at Microsoft Germany, leading social media marketing initiatives. This experience gave me invaluable insights into large-scale digital strategies and how major corporations approach online visibility. Working with Microsoft’s resources and data taught me the importance of scalable, data-driven approaches to digital marketing.

The Maltese Chapter

Nine years ago, I relocated to Malta, where I’ve been deeply embedded in the competitive online gaming industry. I led livecasino.com as part of the LeoVegas team, managing SEO strategies in one of the most challenging and regulated digital sectors.

Later, as Chief Strategy Officer at GameLounge, I oversaw SEO and digital strategies across multiple casino and betting sites, managing portfolios that demanded both technical precision and creative problem-solving.

Why ForgetAboutMetas.com Exists

Through years of hands-on experience – from affiliate sites to Fortune 500 companies to high-stakes gaming platforms – I’ve seen the same SEO myths recycled repeatedly. I’ve watched businesses waste resources on outdated tactics while missing fundamental strategies that actually drive results.

I Build Holistic SEO Strategies because I’ve learned that successful SEO isn’t about individual tactics or quick fixes. It’s about understanding how search engines, users, and business objectives intersect to create sustainable growth.

ForgetAboutMetas.com is my platform to share what I’ve learned from real campaigns, actual data, and measurable results. Here, I debunk persistent SEO myths and focus on strategies that genuinely move the needle- because in a world full of SEO noise, what matters is what actually works.
