Senior-level skills,
built over two decades
of hands-on work
I’m Joshua Smith, a digital strategist and developer with 20+ years across digital marketing, web development, and brand growth. Here’s a bit about my background, how I work, and what I care about.
A straightforward approach
to getting results
Every project has its own goals and its own challenges. I take the time to understand both before recommending anything. Here’s what that looks like in practice.
Hands-On
I do the work myself. Senior-level thinking applied directly, from day one, with no handoffs to junior staff.
Grounded in Data
Every recommendation comes from market analysis, competitive intelligence, and performance data. Not hunches. Not trends for the sake of trends.
Built for Results
Work tied to qualified leads and revenue, not vanity metrics. Always clear on what’s working and what needs adjusting.
20+ years of building
what works online
I’ve spent 20+ years building the websites, marketing technology, and automation behind digital growth. It’s been hands-on, senior-level work for agencies and organizations that needed it done right.
My focus is where strategy meets execution: web development and UX on WordPress and modern CMS architecture, technical SEO and AI search visibility (AEO), WCAG accessibility, and the AI and automation layer that removes manual, repetitive work. That includes AI agents, conversational chatbots, workflow automation, and AI-augmented reporting that turns raw data into decisions.
My background is in Sociology and the arts, which is why I start with the people and build the technology around them. The throughline across every project is the same: clear thinking, honest assessments, measurable outcomes, and work that holds up.

Outside of digital strategy, I’m a father, husband, and active community member. I make music, experiment with recipes, and read whenever I get the chance. As both a writer and an entrepreneur, I bring a creative perspective to problem-solving and a genuine curiosity that shows up in everything I do. The same energy I put into my work goes into the relationships I build with the people I work alongside.
