John Sherrod

Director of SEO

John devel­ops, manages, imple­ments, and eval­u­ates the philos­o­phy, projects, and people on Search Discovery’s SEO team.

He teaches organic search strate­gies to busi­ness leaders, marketers, devel­op­ers and other SEOs that trans­late into proven high-value SEO campaigns for verti­cals in the real estate, e‑commerce, publish­ing, gaming, manu­fac­tur­ing, hospi­tal­ity, and insur­ance indus­tries.

With deep and wide expe­ri­ence in web appli­ca­tion devel­op­ment, product devel­op­ment and market­ing John deliv­ers a compre­hen­sive and sustain­able vision for organic search visi­bil­ity. His unique ability to speak the language of diverse (and some­times compet­ing) audi­ences helps orga­ni­za­tions effi­ciently approach and effec­tively inte­grate search strate­gies with busi­ness goals.

Prior to Search Discovery, John also managed SEO for several lines of busi­ness at Prime­dia includ­ing Realestate.com, Apartmentguide.com and Rentals.com.

He holds a BA in Social Psychol­ogy from Rhodes College and an advanced certifi­cate in computer science at Golden Gate Univer­sity in San Fran­cisco.

About Me

As with many computer geeks (profes­sion­als) my fasci­na­tion with bugs has led me to beekeep­ing, garden­ing in general, and devel­op­ment of a commu­nity garden near my Georgia home. I also lived in Honduras – amazing insects and unimag­in­able gardens – and Senegal, West Africa where I became profi­cient in Wolof and a connois­seur of ceebu jen.
