Todd Herschberg’s Summary

I am a seasoned entrepreneur and marketing executive with a heavy emphasis on internet marketing technologies including SEO, SEM and social media. Although I mostly consult, I was the Director of SEO for Like.com - a comparison shopping search engine - and the marketing director and SEO guru for WildAttire - one of the largest men's accessories ecommerce sites. I was involved with two consulting firms: TakeONE Marketing (VP ClickSMART Partner Technology) and Quantimark (Founder and CTO).

I also founded and managed a number of start-up tech firms where I was instrumental in the development and refinement of several search engine technologies and marketing programs. I was also one of the founders of Albert's Ambry (alberts.com) one of the internet's first specialty software search engines, where I helped to develop both our search algorithms and our fraud control filtering systems. I have additionally been involved with several other major search engines over the years, ranging in capacities from beta tester for Digital's AltaVista search systems to senior second-tier editor for the NewHoo project (now DMOZ). I also had creative input into Australia's WebWombat search engine.

I am also the founder of OCEAN - The Orange County Executives And Networkers group on LinkedIn. The group is open to all those who live and/or work in Orange County, California.
