I offer a free introductory phone call, to give you an honest evaluation of your situation, with no strings and no sales pitch.

Are You a Local Business?
This review tool scans the internet by your business name and zip code, and shows a visibility score for Google, Yahoo and Bing. You then get access to view more details covering your website, local citation pages, local search, business directories, social media, a reputation section, and even an on-page SEO report, all for no charge.
In-House or Agency? Need a Team Member?
Are you looking for help with your existing team? Are you an agency that’s in need of some direction? Perhaps you’re an in house team, and from time to time you need answers or direction? I may be able to help.
As an Internet Consultant…
I’ve established relationships with multiple businesses over the years, who have found it far more economical to have an ongoing communication with me, as opposed to paying the salary of a digital marketing manager or management team.
Nowadays, especially on mobile and tablets, the ads have become so prominent that users often have to scroll one or even two swipes past ads and Google Maps locations before they even see the #1 organic listing.
My History in Search:
I first began selling software online in 1999, about the same time I wrote my first article on search. Then I began tinkering with pay per click advertising in 2001, while building a computer software and hardware business.
One day while visiting a customer who had had found me on Yahoo for “computer repair”, we started discussing Yellow Page advertising and Internet marketing. I ended up putting a pay per click campaign in place for them, and within just hours began having success.
In 2004, I began appearing on the front page of the search engines for some generic search terms like “internet consultant”, so I decided to put all of my attention into search, and gradually exited the other areas of my business, so I could focus exclusively on search marketing.
In 2007 Search Commander, Inc. became my operational business name, and today I work with companies in multiple countries helping maximize their internet visibility through a combination of paid and organic search marketing.
I’ve developed a unique method of helping you in the ways you need most, to work in harmony with your existing staff however large or small they might be.
Please feel free to browse my website, use my free tools, take a look at my rates, and if you’ve read this far, maybe schedule a free call?
