About Grant
SEO consultant to C-level folks, and to the teams who report to them.

Grant Simmons is a writer, author and marketer with more than 25 years in search. He has written hundreds of articles and presented hundreds of sessions on SEO, content, link-building, user experience and agency operations, and advises Fortune 500 companies, start-ups, mid-sized companies and enterprises.
Over more than 25 years he has run his own agency, led enterprise campaigns at the largest independent search agency in Los Angeles, and headed SEO and performance marketing for a real-estate marketplace with tens of millions of pages. Throughout, the job that mattered most was the same: explaining to marketing leaders why their SEO investment was, or wasn’t, working.
Those leaders had exactly the challenges you have today. Seeing a need for simpler guidance, he wrote C-Level SEO: business-focused language, not tech babble.
Today Grant works as a fractional SEO and GEO lead and is the creator of The MAPS Method, a framework for building a brand that people and machines understand, trust, find and use.
