Larry Sanger

Lawrence Mark Sanger was born on July 16, 1968, in Bellevue, Washington, USA. He was raised in Anchorage, Alaska, USA. Along with Jimmy Wales, he is recognized as a co-founder, in 2001, of the free Wikipedia project. He is a philosopher with a doctorate in philosophy from Ohio State University. In March 2000, Sanger was hired by Wales' company, Bomis, as editor-in-chief of Nupedia, a project to create a free encyclopedia. In response to frustration with Nupedia's slow progress, in January 2001 Sanger proposed the creation of a wiki to improve article development, giving rise to Wikipedia. Sanger oversaw the Wikipedia project, named it, and formulated much of its original policy. In 2002, he left Wikipedia and became a critic of it, especially regarding the unreliability of the information it disseminated. Sanger sought to remedy this deficiency by working on new projects: the Digital Universe, launched in 2005, and Citizendium, launched on March 25, 2007. Currently, he works on an educational video portal, WatchKnowLearn.

Hello, I'm Alexander Rodrigues Silva, SEO specialist and author of the book "Semantic SEO: Semantic Workflow". I've worked in the digital world for over two decades, focusing on website optimization since 2009. My choices have led me to delve into the intersection between user experience and content marketing strategies, always with a focus on increasing organic traffic in the long term. My research and specialization focus on Semantic SEO, where I investigate and apply semantics and connected data to website optimization. It's a fascinating field that allows me to combine my background in advertising with library science. In my second degree, in Library and Information Science, I seek to expand my knowledge in Indexing, Classification, and Categorization of Information, seeing an intrinsic connection and great application of these concepts to SEO work. I have been researching and connecting Library Science tools (such as Domain Analysis, Controlled Vocabulary, Taxonomies, and Ontologies) with new Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools and Large-Scale Language Models (LLMs), exploring everything from Knowledge Graphs to the role of autonomous agents. In my role as an SEO consultant, I seek to bring a new perspective to optimization, integrating a long-term vision, content engineering, and the possibilities offered by artificial intelligence. For me, SEO work is a strategy that needs to be aligned with your business objectives, but it requires a deep understanding of how search engines work and an ability to understand search results.
