About Simon Cox

Hi, I am one of many Simon Cox’s in the UK. I am the one that does Technical SEO, builds and manages websites. In my precious spare time I like to model narrow gauge railways and I live in Lingfield, England.

I really don't have any interest in football at any level including playing for Reading, Southend and Ireland as an International. That's just not me.

I am a Technical SEO (search engine optimisation) consultant, web standards evangelist, content management specialist, amateur bread baker, early member of the LondonEErs ExpressionEngine Group and a founding member of the Croydon Creatives social group.

I am also a member of the Greenwich and District Narrow Gauge Railway Society and a member of the 009 Society - which covers most of my narrow gauge modelling interests.

Simon Cox Technical SEO

I have been practicing Search Engine Optimisation since the late half of the 1990's when Alta Vista took notice of meta keywords – this was before Google started up! How things have changed over the years! I do a lot more than just Tech SEO though and can be hired by the day or on a contract basis.

Twitter Chats

You may have seen me participating in SEO Twitter chats - I was a regular participant in a number of them. However, I shall not be participating in Twitter any more, it's time is over. I will still be around on social media and I will still be happy to answer questions and help out where I can. I can be found mostly on the SEO Community on Mastodon these days, Bluesky and LinkedIn if you want to get in touch about work.

Simon Cox Bread Baker

If you had a peek at my instagram feed before I shut it down you may notice the odd picture or two of loaves of bread. I didn't do a lot with Instagram except post pictures of hot bread just out of the oven. I like baking bread - it is always a bit of a challenge, you can get creative with it and ultimately it tastes great!

Simon Cox narrow gauge railway modeller

As something to do with my spare time I model narrow gauge railways at 4mm to the foot scale but to a narrow gauge. I have a few articles on this site about some of the progress I have made over the years - still plenty to do!
