About

Hi, I’m James D. Thompson, a strategic and innovative SEO expert and content strategist with over 12 years of experience. I hold a PhD in Media Studies with a focus on digital marketing discourse. I love combining my academic background with industry insights to help brands boost their organic growth and digital visibility. Throughout my career, I’ve successfully increased site traffic by more than 300% and ranked content on Google’s first page for competitive keywords.

I am passionate about mentoring creative teams and integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion into digital content. I thrive on driving data-driven campaigns, developing scalable content strategies, and creating engaging, conversion-focused copy. When I’m not strategizing SEO or writing, I enjoy teaching and publishing research on the dynamics of race and algorithms in digital spaces.
