Jorge Duarte Machado Tavares

How have I started and What have I done so far:

I've started Programming in 2016, when I first Launched my own classifieds Platform, Tecmagnet.com.

Being a webmaster of such a complex website pushed me very often to unknown fields, such as:

SEO - From Gathering Meaningful Metrics to profit with them from Remarketing and Organic Traffic in both Search and Social Media Platforms.

  - Built a Dynamic Sitemap script which works with specific Keywords to create pages that Generate more Organic traffic with the website's content. (PHP and MySQL)

Advertisement - I'm used to operate in Adwords (or Google Ads), Facebook and Instagram. I've had some experience with other advertisement networks such as StartApp and similar ones.

  - I currently run a Dynamic Ads script which creates thousands of specific campaigns having in "mind" a target audience for each one. This one lowered my CPC cost in about 35% and increased my CTR in 30%. Since then I'm able to run and manage thousands of different campaigns at the same time (in Google Ads).  (PHP and MySQL)

  - I've gained experience with Google Adwords Editor during this development.

  - I've Worked with the Portuguese Market.

  - I've created a VBA Macro that gathers data from multiple campaigns in order to provide the administration with specific results about the multiple campaigns that currently run on Adwords.

  - I've completed a Udemy Google Search Advertisement Course in 2017. 

Web-Development - I was forced to understand what matters (in the ecommerce area) in order to successfully plan the whole design, search, navigation and presentation tools. 

Back-End:

1- Designed and sucessfully implemented Datafeed integration with several Online Stores and Affiliate Hubs. I have experience building scripts to generate Datafeeds for Magento, Prestashop, Wordpress and Shopify Platforms. (PHP, Some Platform functions and MySQL)

2- Built a Natural Language Search Engine for my Platform. It processes Natural Language queries and operates with every parameter that the user would require to filter product results such as:

  2.1- Item Category / Family

  2.2- Item Brand / Model

  2.3- Item Characteristics

  2.4- Item Location

  2.5- Item Price Range

  2.6- Item Location

  2.7- And Much More...

  (PHP, MySQL and Javascript)

3- Built Macros that generate dynamic tables (Excel) for "Offline" stores to be able to quickly advertise hundreds of products. (Microsoft VBA)

4- Designed and Built a Metrics system which allows Administration and Stores to do some market evaluation and track user behaviour at Tecmagnet.com (PHP, MySQL and HTML)

I have also attended and completed a Udemy Course in Android App Development with Rob Percival (using Android Studio). 

Where am I confortable at?

Being challenged with something I've never seen or done before.

Planning / Designing the logic, Building, Testing and Executing is what I do on a daily basis.
