Hi there, I’m Svetoslav Petkov but everybody calls me Svet. Thank you for visiting my personal website.

I’m a passionate SEO expert with over 6 years of experience in the industry focused on all things technical, on-site and off-site SEO.

Currently, I’m Technical SEO Manager in Spotlight Sports Group where I provide my expertise to our own brands – PicksWise, RacingPost, MyRacing, FantasyAlarm, AS Apuestas, MyRacing, FreeSuperTips
