Our story
How it started
I'm Matt. In 2018, while I was still in college at Fontys, I started building websites for local business owners. I quickly learned that a great-looking website doesn't do much if nobody can find it. So I dove into SEO: how does Google read a page, and why does one page rank at the top while another doesn't?
I graduated in 2020 and went full-time with Timmermans Media. I wrote SEO content for brands like Bitvavo, HEMA, and Business Insider, and saw up close what works in Google and what doesn't.
When ChatGPT went mainstream in 2023, a new question came up. Not just “Do I rank in Google?” but also “Does AI mention my business?” Since then, I've been tracking how AI chatbots choose their sources and publishing original research on it. Everything I learn goes straight into my client work.

Our approach
How Timmermans Media works
Clear
No jargon, no vague promises. We communicate clearly, directly, and concretely, so you always know where you stand.
Expert
Our advice is backed by data, facts, and proven strategies. No guesswork, just results. Testing and measuring shows what works.
Open
We see ourselves as your partner. We bring ideas to the table and we're upfront about what works and what doesn't.
Personal
We take our work seriously but keep things easygoing and approachable. Our partnerships stay warm, honest, and effective.
Giving back
Helping others grow
Growth doesn't come easy for everyone. That's why we support local initiatives that make a real difference. Timmermans Media sponsors Voedselbank Boxtel (a local food bank), Stichting Droomdag, and Vincentiusvereniging Boxtel with financial support and free services. It's our way of helping build a better tomorrow.
We asked Matt Timmermans of Timmermans Media to improve our online visibility. Since Matt took this on, we have clearly been receiving more enquiries via Google and ChatGPT, which leads to better jobs and higher revenue.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Who's behind Timmermans Media?+
Matt Timmermans founded Timmermans Media in 2018 while studying ICT & Media Design in Eindhoven. He put what he learned about online marketing into practice right away on websites he built himself, and went full-time after graduating in 2020. So you work directly with the founder and specialist.
Where is Timmermans Media based, and who do you work with?+
Timmermans Media works with clients across the Netherlands, Belgium, and beyond, mostly remotely, with a Dutch office address in 's-Hertogenbosch. The company is legally registered as an Estonian OÜ.
How is Timmermans Media different from a traditional SEO agency?+
A traditional SEO agency mostly focuses on Google rankings. Timmermans Media also optimizes for visibility in AI search engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity (GEO). We combine SEO, GEO, content, and web development, so you show up wherever your customers are searching.

How much experience does Timmermans Media have with SEO and GEO?+
Timmermans Media has been around since 2018 and full-time since 2020. The focus shifted from web development to SEO, covering both technical SEO and content that ranks, and when LLMs took off in 2023, GEO joined the mix. That puts us ahead of the curve on optimizing for AI search engines.
Does Timmermans Media have experience with software development and AI?+
Yes. Matt studied software development from 2016 to 2020 and has since built his own platforms, including GiveRadar (a public-benefit platform that makes local charities discoverable worldwide) and Runami (an AI running coach). For clients, he built LandLoom (real estate data analysis for Bali and Lombok), a booking tool with automatic pricing for De Silent Disco, and the AutoWriter, an AI content engine that writes and publishes articles for Noisely. We put that experience to work on custom websites and web applications for clients.

How does Timmermans Media keep websites and software secure?+
