Who He Is

Practitioner. Educator. Author.

Matt Bailey has spent 30 years in digital marketing — not as a commentator, but as a practitioner. He started SiteLogic Marketing in 2006 and has since worked with over 2,000 companies, generated $1.2 billion in client revenue, and trained more than 1,000,000 marketers across 100+ countries.

He speaks at 1,500+ events. He has written four books, two published by Wiley. His curriculum is used at Duke, Rutgers, Purdue, George Washington University, and three other universities. His LinkedIn Learning course has over 800,000 learners.

What drives all of it: the belief that digital marketing shouldn't be confusing. That data should make decisions easier, not harder. That every marketer — regardless of technical background — can understand what's happening and know what to do next.

Matt founded SiteLogic Marketing in 2006 after years of agency and consulting work in digital strategy, search, and analytics. In 2020, Matt earned a Master of Education in Instructional Design from American College of Education, and an M.S. in Marketing from Western Governors University — formalizing what he had been practicing for years. He is one of the few marketing speakers in the world who is not just experienced, but trained in how to teach.

The Person Behind It

A Few Other Things

Matt is a husband and father of four daughters. He's a beekeeper, a self-described coffee snob, and reads history, culture, and philosophy when he's not thinking about keyword research. He got interested in the internet from the movie WarGames and a Commodore 64, which is either a red flag or a green one depending on how you look at it. He's based in Canton, Ohio. He works globally.
