About Murph
George Daniel Murphy III aka “Murph”
I started in sales immediately after college, selling wireless telecommunications solutions to small business, corporations, and government agencies in Downtown Washington, DC and the surrounding area. I was really excited about technology and new gadgets when I started and really enjoyed working with people. I initially thought that wireless communications was where the future was at, but after carriers started buying each other and it becoming too repetitive and boring after a while, I knew it was time for a change.
I ran a small web site in college and was always interested in how it was marketed and how to find customers. About three years ago I started really looking into Search Engine Optimization as a means of income. I started reading convention transcripts, E-Books, message boards and blogs, and anything else I could find to learn industry secrets and techniques. Everyone has to start somewhere right?
I’ve now been in Internet Marketing for over three years now and have worked on projects for Fortune 500 companies as well as small local businesses who wanted to increase their online exposure. I am currently the web marketing manager for over 100 clients of Foster Web Marketing where I help them with SEO for their websites (each client ranks on page one of Google for their geographic keywords, an average Google Pgerank of 4/10, and unique monthly traffic count averages of 1500), blogging, social media marketing, and more.
Personal stuff: I’m 27 years old. I bought my first house in Baltimore City in January 2007 in Highlandtown, the Arts and Entertainment District, and stay pretty active in the community. In my free time I write about the U.S. Men’s National Soccer Team for Yanks Abroad, which I enjoy as a fan of the game because I get press credentials to matches and get to interview players. I have also played soccer since the age of 5 and play very competitively here in Baltimore. Oh, and I also coach soccer, I volunteer at a new high school here in the city at a school called Cristo Rey Jesuit High School. I am avid supporter of Manchester United as well as DC United, and The Washington Redskins in the other football (sorry Ravens fans, I’m a DC boy at heart). My younger brother plays professional soccer for the Richmond Kickers as a goalkeeper.
So, here I am. If you have any questions about your Internet Marketing strategy, comments or feedback about the blog, or anything about myself, I am always available.
