Meet The Founder
Zinn Hub was created by Neil Lock, a digital marketing veteran with over 25 years of hands-on experience in SEO, link building, web development, and internet marketing. Throughout his career, Neil has managed over £5 million in link building campaigns and built digital strategies for businesses of every size.
After years of watching talented freelancers get short-changed by platforms that take 20% commissions, restrict communication with clients, and offer zero support for building an independent brand — Neil decided to build something better.
"I built Zinn Hub because I've been on both sides. I've hired freelancers and been frustrated by platform restrictions. I've seen brilliant people lose a fifth of their earnings for the privilege of being listed. Freelancers deserve better — and so do the businesses that hire them."
Neil isn't a hands-off founder. He personally runs the Zinn Concierge service — a free, one-on-one consultation where he helps businesses and individuals find the right freelancers, scope their projects, and get the best results. With 25+ years of experience across SEO, web development, content, AI, and digital marketing, he's uniquely placed to guide projects from brief to delivery.
He's also active in the Zinn Hub community, runs monthly competitions with cash and crypto prizes, and personally oversees platform quality to make sure every Zinner and Zinnector has the best possible experience.
