The concept of WebFindYou was derived in early 2009 by Robert Blankenship, an Internet Veteran with over 20 years experience in Internet Business and Internet Development, who recognized that most businesses with an online presence are not maximizing the traffic potential of their website, most likely because they don't know how, or that they can, or they've deemed it too expensive to do so. In December of 2009 Robert Blankenship founded WebFindYou as a means to help businesses get more traffic to their websites via search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing at a price point that can produce a positive return on investment.
