Andrew Goodman is Founder and President of Page Zero Media, a pioneering PPC agency that originally started in 1999 as a content site about “the portal wars” – Traffick.com – before PPC sprung to life in the form of Google AdWords Select in 2002. A few “real clients” showed up, and the learning curve kicked off.
Andrew continued writing, traveling, and speaking, meeting a motley crew of spammy SEO’s, bemused journalists, dot com startup promoters, and… mercifully, super-smart PPC marketers and Analytics gurus. What a rush!
Even exceeding Traffick.com’s expectations and fears, 20 years on, the digital monopolies (then, “portals”) have come to control increasing swaths of economic, social, and political life. During this time, Andrew has witnessed many other breathtaking technological changes, such as less-frequent oil changes.
The fledgling search marketing agency, internally known as “PZ,” gained momentum Andrew wrote the first-ever book about the platform, Winning Results With Google AdWords (McGraw-Hill, 2005, 2008). PZ soon developed a laser focus on providing full-service PPC campaign management for a range of clients — some relatively large, some smaller. This focus has never wavered.
Andrew has spoken at countless digital marketing events, and at one time held an “iron man streak” of speaking at 48 consecutive Search Engine Strategies conferences in North America.
His side hustle for ten years was a startup called HomeStars (co-founder, Board of Directors). HomeStars was acquired by HomeAdvisor in February 2017.
Andrew keeps active on trails and in the gym, and he loves to travel within Atlantic Canada, the Caribbean, and Europe, whenever time allows. He divides his time between homes in Toronto and Fredericton, NB.
