Topics
These are the areas I speak about most. Each can be pitched as a 20-minute conference slot, a longer workshop, or a shorter briefing.
AI & SEO
Using AI tools and APIs to take the repetitive work out of SEO, so teams can spend their time on the judgement calls that actually need a human.
Automation
Building small Node.js and Next.js apps that automate tedious audit checks, and how that changes the way an SEO team works day to day.
Structured Data & Schema
Implementing schema properly on everything from off-the-shelf platforms to bespoke CMSs, and why it increasingly matters for visibility in LLMs.
Crawling & Indexation
How search engines actually discover and index content on large, complex sites, and where that process quietly goes wrong.
Future of Search
How search is changing with AI-generated answers, and what to do now so your site is still performing in two years.
Who the talks are for
- Technical SEO teams
- Developers
- In-house marketing teams
- Agency owners and management
- Founders and decision-makers
Common questions
What makes your talks different?
They come out of things I've actually done: the audit I automated because doing it by hand was eating days, the schema that had to work on a CMS nobody had heard of. All tested on stage at BrightonSEO three times.
Are they suitable for non-technical audiences?
Yes. The material is technical but the delivery is plain. Marketers, founders and managers all follow it fine.
Do you tailor talks to specific events or teams?
Always. A conference slot, a workshop and a leadership briefing all need different versions, so every talk is adjusted to the room.
Speaker kit
Everything organisers usually ask for, in one place. The photos are by my photographer and fine to use alongside event listings.
Short bio
Jonathon Roberts is a technical SEO specialist at Fly High Media, based in Chester. He has spoken at BrightonSEO three times and at TechSEO North, and appeared twice on the Majestic podcast, talking about SEO automation, structured data and how search engines crawl large, complex websites.
Long bio
Jonathon Roberts is a technical SEO specialist at Fly High Media, a digital marketing agency in Cheshire and Manchester. His work focuses on the parts of search that rarely show up in a keyword tool: how sites get crawled, what gets indexed, how structured data is read, and where large or unusual CMSs quietly get in the way.
Alongside client work, he builds small Node.js and Next.js apps that automate SEO workflows, from crawling and auditing to reporting. That hands-on approach shapes his talks, which are built around methods he uses day to day rather than general best practice.
Jonathon has spoken at BrightonSEO three times and at TechSEO North, and has appeared twice on the Majestic podcast. His sessions cover SEO automation, AI and Google APIs, schema on custom CMSs, and crawling and indexation, delivered plainly enough for marketers without losing the technical detail.
How to introduce me
Jonathon is Technical Lead at Fly High Media and a three-time BrightonSEO speaker. He talks about the practical side of technical SEO: automation, structured data, and how search engines actually crawl a site. Please welcome Jonathon Roberts.
