Meet the Founder
James Profits started Search Science in 2004 and has stayed hands-on with every major engagement since. His expertise covers local SEO, Google Business Profile recovery for filtered and suspended listings, multi-location franchise SEO, technical SEO, keyword cannibalization remediation, and the emerging AI Search Optimization discipline (AEO and GEO).
Every Search Science client engagement runs through James's review process. The case studies on this site, the campaigns documented in the downloadable PDFs, and the strategic decisions that produced the results, all carry his signature. When you work with Search Science you do not get a junior account manager learning on your campaign. You get 20 years of pattern recognition applied to your business.

Plenty of agencies sell you a list of tasks. We would rather be judged on what those tasks produce. Three principles have guided the work for twenty years, and every documented result on this site traces back to them.
Citation and NAP audits, Google Business Profile cleanup, technical fixes, and untangling pages that compete with each other. It is not glamorous work, and it is exactly what most agencies skip in the first month. Every case study on this site started here.
Local citations + brand signals + authority links + content depth + GBP optimization. Each signal compounds the others. Our 170+ location franchise client and 414% phone call law firm both reached their results through compounding signal architecture, not single tactics.
Direct Answer blocks. FAQPage schema. Entity disambiguation. Wikipedia sameAs references. Speakable specs. Every page we touch is built for traditional SEO AND for AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude citation. AEO and GEO are not add-ons; they are foundational.
Each of our case studies is available as a PDF and PowerPoint download with detailed methodology, GeoGrid data, and metrics. Use them for your team, your stakeholders, or your own learning.
