Meet Our Team

Ben Herman, Founder

Ben has been working with search engines and optimizing web sites since early 2003. Originally utilizing time away from work to build and optimize websites for himself and friends, Ben quickly found that through SEO, he was able to make a small living from several web sites that he started from scratch. Being able to ethically get all websites to rank for various keyword terms, Ben knew he was on to something valuable. Slowly, a new vision developed, to one day start a SEO business.

In 2005, Ben’s SEO knowledge landed him work as an SEO consultant for a local web design firm. The first high profile professional project was given to Ben, and a vision had quickly become reality. Mad Fish SEO now has a client base as varied and diverse as the internet itself.

Mad Fish SEO, LLC has never forgotten where it has come from, nor lost the impeccable customer appreciating and service skills gained from working in market research for over four years.
