Duccio C.

My name is Duccio Catalioto, "an inexhaustible machine idea", as a Facebook recruiter called me. I was born in 1990 and I never stop working, traveling and living, thanks to the web. I started my entrepreneurial career selling on eBay when I was 14, but my real first web project was born in 2006, when, at the age of 16, I founded a forum on programming and the Linux world called "big-bug.net". My first startup took off when I was a 20-year-old, in the Dubai Desert in 2011. An American investor from TechStars Network decided to put $25,000 into my crazy idea, Metwit, which I had started and self founded a year earlier. For 20+ years I’ve built and bootstrapped web projects – MVP building, marketing acquisition, and growth hacking – from idea to execution. Today I focus on growth through process optimization and scalable organic acquisition, delivering advanced programmatic SEO with AI + human approach.
