Kimberly Kimbrough’s Summary

I eat, sleep and breathe SEO and online marketing strategies. I started in 1997 when I was home with my newborn and purchased my first computer.
I grew a Yahoo group membership from 1 to 12,000 members within 3 months.
Because of my love for technology, I went back to school in 2000 to acquire a Bachelors of Science degree in Computer Information Management.
During that time, I would sit behind a computer, researched and tested SEO techniques literally all day and all night long. I purchased multiple domains and used them to try new ideas. I am very quick as lightning when it comes to setting up an effective website to use as a marketing tool.
I believe in making the Internet work 24/7/365 once I put in the initial time to build a vehicle to generate income.
I have sold ebooks and specialize in driving traffic and traffic conversion using advanced and sophisticated SEO strategies.

Get in touch with me if you have any questions about traffic generation and conversions. I also like talking about SEO, Internet Marketing strategies and blogging.

Kimberly Kimbrough’s Experience

Social Media/SEO/SEM Manager

National SEO/SEM Consulting Management Firm based in California

(Internet industry)

June 2008 — Present (1 year 6 months)

I work virtually to provide web analytics, research, analysis for product based websites. Provide highly optimized landing pages to convert to list subscribers. Grew client base from 3 to 53 customers that I manage.
We provide a full suite of services from domain registrations, hosting, blog setup and advanced seo techniques that crush Google. Because I know what I am doing, prices are extremely competitive.
SEO/SEM Analyst

Major Interactive Advertising Agency

(Marketing and Advertising industry)

August 2009 — November 2009 (4 months)

SEO/SEM Analyst for one local client and provided training to VP of IT and web designer on how to optimize landing pages, optimize social media sites, and a few more tactics.

Unfortunately, it seemed that I was hired to train the VP of IT but I have worked too many years and too hard to give up my knowledge in 90 days. I was hired to analyze but he seemed offended that I was analytical.

Position really called for someone with entry level experience. There was only one client and it took three months (still in progress) to develop a Facebook fan page, MySpace page, Twitter page, and Youtube page. It has also taken as long to develop 9 landing pages.

On the opposite side, I was given the opportunity to learn Omniture Site Catalyst 13.5.

I can assume that the VP of IT will now be the SEO/SEM/Social Media expert. All I have to say is that "you are welcomed."

I develop projects, manage the time, and keep the projects within scope. I am very good at staying on target, finishing early, maintaining the scope and staying on budget.
