About Sri Nagubandi

My career and love affair with the Internet started in 1995 as a novice trying to understand everything from what makes a web page work to how to use gopher. At my first job in the Information services and Technology Department of MTV Networks, I was exposed to Lotus Notes and the basics of building web sites for users. From those long frustrating nights of trying to understand both Lotus Notes and the internet spawned a love affair with everything internet and later marketing via the internet.

After leaving MTV I held various positions in marketing and sales of both internet related software and web application development along with some rewarding and frustrating stints as a project manager trying to bring complex websites in on time and within budget at many dot-com startups. My entry in to Search Engine Marketing came in early 2001 at Inceptor, Inc, one of the first Search Engine Marketing Agencies in American, now part of Idearc.

After the bust, I focused my energies into building an internet marketing consultancy focused on helping medium size business understand the internet and using it as a channel for marketing their services.

Over the last few years I have worked in some of the most innovative internet marketing companies like Monster.com and have had the honor of building and managing a team of SEO and New Media Enthusiasts at the full service interactive marketing agency, DigitalGrit, Inc now part of Zeta Interactive.

Since my first blush with internet marketing in 1999 I have been dedicated to search marketing in all its forms.

I am equally determined about learning the art and science of managing, building, and growing teams of people. I see no greater reward than helping the company I work meet and exceed goals as I help my team develop in all areas.
