Celebrating 17 Years of Filipino SEO Excellence Inspired by Pioneer Jin Grey
Davao City, Philippines – October 3, 2025 – The Philippines is now celebrating its first-ever Philippines SEO Day, a nationwide digital observance held every October 3 to honor the rising influence and success of Filipino SEO professionals, freelancers, and digital marketers.
This groundbreaking initiative was inspired by the birthday of Jean Diaz Palabrica, also known in the digital world as Jin Grey, one of the Philippines’ earliest and most influential SEO experts. Jin began her SEO journey as a link builder on January 18, 2008, and has since dedicated 17 years to mastering the craft, mentoring over 1,000 students, and building multiple online ventures.
“This day isn’t just about my story—it’s for every Filipino who discovered SEO as a way to transform their life, whether they’re in Luzon, Visayas or Mindanao,” said Jin Grey, founder of Jeanius Hub, JinGrey.com and GandangSEO.com.
🔎 A Celebration of Filipino Digital Talent
Despite the Philippines being one of the world’s leading SEO outsourcing destinations, there has never been a formal recognition of the industry’s role in uplifting Filipino freelancers and digital entrepreneurs—until now.
Philippines SEO Day aims to:
Recognize SEO as a legitimate, future-proof career path
Celebrate Filipino SEO experts, mentors, and content creators
Inspire young Filipinos and career shifters to explore SEO
Advocate for SEO education in schools, bootcamps, and government programs
From website audits to content optimization, link building, and analytics—Filipinos continue to drive the global digital economy from behind the scenes.
