With a proven track record in digital strategy and SEO, David G Quaid is a regular guest on the James Dooley Podcast because listeners love his critical thinking on advanced marketing strategies.

Based between New York City and West Palm Beach, he specializes in technical SEO for SaaS, tech, cybersecurity, cloud, law, and fintech companies. With over two decades of experience, David is the SEO other SEOs call when they hit problems nobody else can solve.

He doesn't chase hype; he tests. His live experiments on how LLMs surface and cite brands produce sophisticated, evidence-backed tactics on topical authority, entity SEO, and AI visibility that most practitioners either don't know or won't share. David teaches in public — building his agency openly, hosting his own SEO podcast (David Quaid SEOtv), appearing as a top-viewed guest on the Edward Sturm Show, and publishing deep breakdowns on Reddit, X, and LinkedIn that have helped other SEOs land clients. Peers call him an exceptional technologist who actually shares what works.
