Paid search is a very engaging, full-brained activity. It requires strategy and creativity. There’s never a shortage of problems to be solved and gains to be won.

Amy and James Hebdon run Paid Search Magic. We met on OKCupid in 2010. We’ve been collaborating on PPC projects since 2011, and married since 2013. We are both Enneagram Fives, meaning our driving desire is to be capable, and our deepest fear is to be useless. This translates into extremely high quality results for our clients.
