The founder
Zubair Afzal, Founder
A business owner first. He built BOOSTD for the buyer he used to be.
Zubair studied at the University of Toronto and has started and run businesses in several sectors. For years he was the client: he hired agency after agency, local and international, to market those businesses.
Most sent detailed reports and held busy monthly calls while the number of customers barely changed. So he learned how search works himself and started the company, first as BOOSTD and, from 23 September 2026, as BOOSTD.
Accountability
What the founder answers for personally.
These aren’t handed to anyone else. If one goes wrong, you know who to talk to.
- Where the line sits between what the software may do on its own and what waits for your approval
- Every page on this site: he publishes each one and answers for what it says
- What our plans, prices and terms promise, and keeping those promises
- Which Managed SEO and website projects we take on, and saying so plainly when we shouldn’t
- Our guarantees, and honouring them when they are not met
Straight about size
How big is BOOSTD?
Small, on purpose. The founder leads. Specialists handle development, design and paid media at scale, and Managed SEO adds a specialist team on top of the platform. You will always know who is working on your account.
There are no team photos on this site because we won’t use stock images or invented people. When someone joins who you would deal with directly, they will be named here. See how we work or read the standards we hold ourselves to.
