Founded by Maja Kazazic — Survivor, Technologist, Visionary.

​

At Vela SEO Solutions, we don’t just optimize websites—we transform them into engines of growth. Founded in 2004 by Maja Kazazic, a pioneering web developer and digital strategist, Vela has helped organizations from Fortune 500 companies to emerging startups dominate their digital space with clarity, strategy, and measurable results.

​

But this isn’t just another SEO firm.

​

Maja’s journey began far from the world of business—in the midst of the Bosnian genocide. At just 16 years old, she survived a rocket attack that took the lives of her five closest friends and left her critically injured. After over 100 surgeries and the amputation of her leg, she was airlifted to the U.S. to begin a long, painful road to healing.

​

Out of that pain, something extraordinary was born.

​

Maja taught herself to code in the mid-1990s, launching her first web design company as a teenager. She built her career from the ground up—paying for college, relocating to Florida, and landing a $150,000/year retainer as her first client under the Vela Solutions banner. What followed was a thriving 12-person agency working with global organizations like UnitedHealth Group, LinkedIn, The Y, and U.S. government agencies.

​

Today, Maja continues to work with a select number of clients—bringing 25+ years of digital strategy, SEO, and tech expertise to help businesses unlock their full potential online.

If you’re ready for more than just rankings—if you’re ready for growth with meaning, strategy with soul, and results that matter—you’re in the right place.
