NetPath SEO search placement services

is managed by a team of 3 directors – with a combined total of over 80 years sales and marketing within the IT sector.  The founder, Bill Rhinesmith, entered the computer industry in 1969 as a sales representative – then sales manager - for the Burroughs corporation, now Unisys.  A Business Admin (Marketing/Management) graduate of Cal State University at Fullerton, Mr. Rhinesmith completed his MBA at USC in 1973 and founded 3 successful software companies over the next 3 decades.

In 1997, NetPath Communications, a web site marketing and development firm, was founded as a spin-off from Applied Micro Business Systems, a developer and distributor of inventory management and production control software marketed under the brand “Stock-Master.”

With a strong background in software development, the NetPath group began creating websites in 1995.  By 1997, demand for keyword positioning in the major search engines was becoming evident and the client portfolio began to push for more search position visibility.  The first NetPath search engine optimizing efforts occurred in 1998 with TheInteriorDesigner.com – a web portal for interior designers and home decorators.

Since 1999, TheInteriorDesigner.com and several of its Gateway sites, SupplierExpo.com and BestDecorators.com have continuously performed very well in search results for the phrases “interior designer” and “interior designer, home decorator”.

Today, NetPath has a large portfolio of successful keyword search engine client placements spread across a number of industry sectors.  If you would like to discuss web search optimizing, keyword results and search engine placement with NetPath – we will be happy to open our portfolio to you and review successful case studies and marketing strategies that would be relevant to your business success.

NetPath Communications is a member of the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce (NBCC), a Registered Microsoft Partner, and Certified Microsoft Business Partner.  Mr. Rhinesmith chairs the Membership Services Council for NBCC and is on the Board of Directors.  In addition, much of the staff, including Mr. Rhinesmith, maintains an aggressive schedule of ongoing personal education in computer network technology, network security, web development, Internet marketing and wide area communications engineering.  These ongoing education opportunities are sponsored by Microsoft Corp., Cisco Corp., CMP Publishing, Ziff-Davis Publishing and various local Community and State Universities near our Newport Beach, CA headquarters.
