About Rich Brooks

Rich Brooks has always been fascinated by technology and speaking about himself in the 3rd person.

Hmmm…let’s try that again.

I’ve been developing Web sites since 1996 when I was working out of my apartment in Jamaica Plain–part of Boston.

Through no fault of my own, I’ve grown the business to eight employees including a designer, three developers, two project managers, a search engine marketer and myself.

I make the coffee.

Here’s how my “official” bio reads:

Rich Brooks is founder and president of flyte new media, a Web design and Internet marketing firm in Portland, Maine. His monthly flyte log email newsletter and company blog focus on Web marketing topics such as search engine optimization, blogs, social media, email marketing, and building Web sites that sell. He is currently an Expert Blogger at FastCompany.com and a featured blogger at MaineBusiness.com.

He is a co-founder of Social Media FTW, an organization putting on conferences and events to educate small businesses and non-profits about the power of social media marketing.

He is a nationally recognized speaker on Web marketing topics such as search engine optimization, blogging, social media, email marketing and analytics.

He is the “tech guru” on WCSH Channel 6’s evening news show, 207, and has been interviewed by the Channel 6 news team for technology reports. He also teaches a Web marketing course for entrepreneurs at the University of Southern Maine’s Center for Continuing Education.
