Founder & Next-Gen Search Authority | 15+ Years SEO, AI SEO & PPC | Ex-Google | Partner to Agencies, Universities, Law Firms, SaaS & Healthcare
I’m a digital marketing strategist with 15 years of experience and the founder of Marccx Media. I specialize in Search Engine Optimization, AI SEO / Generative Engine Optimization, and performance-focused Pay Per Click advertising. My approach is grounded in five formative years at Google, where I learned how search really works from the inside and how great brands build durable visibility over time. Since then, I’ve led campaigns for clients like The New York Times, Shutterfly, WordPress, and Sotheby’s Institute of Art. Today, I position myself as a next-generation authority on search in the age of AI—helping agencies, universities, law firms, SaaS companies, and healthcare organizations protect and grow their visibility across Google, ChatGPT, and other generative search engines. I combine technical SEO, AI-driven strategy, and paid media to build search programs that actually move the needle and compound over time.

Projects

SEO Audit: Technical, Content & Authority X-Ray

A comprehensive SEO audit that diagnoses why your site isn’t capturing the visibility it deserves. I review technical health (crawlability, indexation, site speed), content and entity alignment, on-page optimization, and backlink profile. You receive a clear, prioritized action plan that shows what to fix first, where you’re leaving money on the table, and how to translate SEO improvements into qualified traffic and pipeline.See More

Google Ads Audit: Turn Spend Into Scalable ROAS

A deep-dive audit of your Google Ads account to uncover wasted spend, structural issues, and missed growth opportunities. I evaluate campaign and keyword structure, match types, bidding strategy, ad copy, landing page alignment, and conversion tracking. You get a clear, numbers-driven report that highlights quick wins, performance leaks, and a roadmap to improve CPL, ROAS, and overall account efficiency.See More

GEO Visibility Engine: Your Brand in Google, ChatGPT & Generative Search

The GEO Visibility Engine is a next-generation audit that measures how your brand shows up across Google, ChatGPT, and other generative search experiences. I benchmark you against key competitors, analyze which entities, pages, and content types AI models surface (or ignore), and map gaps between traditional SEO and AI-driven discovery. The output is a strategic visibility report that shows how to protect and grow your presence as search shifts from “10 blue links” to AI-generated answers.See More

Authority Growth Framework: 6–12 Month Roadmap for Search-Led Growth

A strategic roadmap that translates SEO, AI search, and PPC insights into a 6–12 month execution plan. I define your authority pillars, prioritize technical fixes, map content themes and formats, outline link/PR plays, and recommend paid search support where it accelerates results. The framework includes timelines, sequencing, and success metrics so your team knows exactly what to do, in what order, to build durable authority and compounding organic growth.See More
