About us
The people (unlocking) <potential>
MediaVision is an independent ecommerce SEO agency in London. For more than twenty years we have worked for retailers who want organic growth and less dependence on paid search. Along the way we built Metis, and it changed how we work.
What sets us apart
SEO first
Organic search is where we started and where we stay. Every hire, every tool and every decision is about being found for what people search for.
Independent
No network and no holding group. Our advice on SEO and paid search is only ever about your commercial outcome, and the people who decide are the people you speak to.
Investing in tech, so you don't have to
We built and fund Metis ourselves, so our clients get weekly demand data and page-ready output without buying a platform or waiting on their own tech teams.
Led by our founder
Louis still sets the day-to-day operational, strategic and design direction, with a Client Council alongside him. What we build stays relevant and answers real-world problems many times a year.
Founder-led
Still run by the person who started it
Louis Venter is the founder and CEO of MediaVision. He has worked in search since 2002 and founded the agency in 2003. Voted one of the 30 most influential SEOs in the UK and named in the PMW 100 Powerlist in 2023, 2024 and 2025, he stays hands on, heading up our SEO product and technology and shaping the Metis roadmap so our clients keep an unfair advantage.

Working with us
Working with us: fast, first, and home by three on summer Fridays
We are an independent SEO agency in Farringdon with a weekly rhythm that makes the work feel different. Every Monday we read the data and plan around it. Every Tuesday we have breakfast together at All Hands. The rest of the week is spent being fast and first for some of the UK's best-known retailers.
Time and flexibility
Two days in the office, three at home. 3pm finishes on summer Fridays. Your birthday off, a paid charity day, and 23 days of leave rising to 25, plus the days between Christmas and New Year.
Money and wellbeing
£500 of Juno points every month to spend as you like, an annual company bonus scheme, cycle to work, eyecare vouchers and an Employee Assistance Programme.
Growth
A skills matrix and progression plan for every team, reviewed in regular one-to-ones. Ongoing training across Metis. An Employee Council that meets monthly and acts on what it hears.
