Rank Local Web Design & SEO was founded by Mark Cass who started learning Google and SEO in 2007 out of necessity—figuring out how to get his own business to rank and generate calls. That hands-on experience turned into a career. In 2013, Mark founded Effective Marketing Solutions, followed by Blue Grey Marketing in 2015, with offices in Fort Myers, Florida and Dallas, Texas. In 2018, he published his first book, 3 Ways To Reach The Tip of Google. During COVID in 2020, he stepped away from running agencies but continued working, testing, and refining strategies as a freelancer. In 2026, he returned and launched Rank Local Web Design & SEO as well as authored a 3-part book series focused on SEO, profile recovery, and AI-driven search—built to solve the real-world marketing challenges business owners face today.
