We Build Marketing Engines That Turn Clicks Into Customers Across San Diego County and Nationwide.
We are a San Diego area marketing agency obsessed with the intersection of art (compelling web design) and science (data-driven SEO and Lead Generation).
“We exist to solve the agency problem: too many promises and not enough reliable, profitable results for high-value businesses in the county.”
Meet Our Founder
Blue Crab Connect was built at the intersection of marketing intelligence, technology, sales psychology, and human behavior—and that intersection is exactly where our founder, Edward Dunn, has spent decades mastering his craft.
With a career spanning marketing strategy, technical systems, high-performance sales, psychology, and neuro-linguistics, Ed brings a rare, holistic perspective to growth. Over the years, he has served as Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), Chief Technology Officer (CTO), and Vice President of Sales for global technology companies, while also leading complex initiatives as a consulting project manager for Fortune 100 organizations.
At the core of Blue Crab Connect’s approach is a belief that effective marketing isn’t about noise—it’s about alignment. Alignment between message and mindset. Between brand and buyer. Between data, emotion, and intent.
Ed’s background in human psychology informs how messaging is structured, how offers are positioned, and how trust is built at scale. Years in sales leadership sharpened his ability to identify friction, objections, and buying signals. Deep experience in technology leadership ensures that strategy is not just creative—but executable, scalable, and measurable. And decades in marketing leadership tie it all together into systems that drive predictable, compounding results.
Our Multidisciplinary Advantage:
- Speak to the real motivations behind customer behavior
- Use technology to amplify—not complicate—growth
- Convert attention into trust, and trust into action
In a world crowded with one-dimensional agencies, Blue Crab Connect exists to offer something different: strategy informed by human understanding, powered by technology, and proven across SMB, enterprise, and Fortune 100 organizations.
That philosophy starts at the top—and it’s infused into everything we do for our clients.
The Hidden Crisis for High-Value San Diego Area Businesses
For too long, high-ticket, high-value businesses across San Diego County have been caught between two bad options:
The Flimsy Freelancer
Cheap websites and vague “SEO services” that fail to generate measurable leads and waste six months of effort.
⊗ No Accountability
The Massive Agency
Expensive, slow, one-size-fits-all contracts where you are lost in the shuffle and are forced to pay for services you don’t need.
⇒ Lost in the Shuffle
The Conflict: Owners of ADU construction firms, Med Spas, and Law Offices need a clear, profitable path from search intent to closed deals. They need a partner focused on ROI for their specific market in the San Diego area.
Our Three-Pillar System for Profitable Growth
We resolved the agency crisis by focusing on one thing: the highest-value lead for the highest possible profit. Our proprietary method combines our core services to deliver:
Strategic SEO
(Built for Buyers, Not Vanity Metrics)
Many businesses are told they need to “rank #1,” but no one asks who they’re ranking for. The result?
- Traffic with no buying intent
- Keywords that look good in reports but don’t generate calls
- Blog posts that attract readers… not customers
Our Approach
We don’t chase vanity keywords or flood your site with generic content. Instead, we build Hub-and-Spoke SEO architectures designed to capture high-intent, long-tail searches — the ones people type when they’re ready to act.
The Benefit to You
- More qualified traffic (not just more traffic)
- SEO that compounds over time instead of resetting every month
- Rankings that actually drive phone calls and form fills
- Strategic SEO becomes a long-term asset, not a monthly expense.
Lead Generation
(Turning Traffic into Real Opportunities)
Most websites assume visitors will “figure out what to do next.” They don’t.
- Visitors skim and leave
- Forms get ignored
- Calls to action are unclear or buried
- Traffic without conversion is wasted opportunity.
Our Approach
We design conversion-focused landing experiences that guide visitors toward a single, clear action — whether that’s calling, booking, or requesting a quote.
The Benefit to You
- More inbound leads without increasing ad spend
- A predictable flow of opportunities instead of guesswork
- Better quality inquiries (people who already understand your value)
- You don’t just get visitors — you get ready-to-buy prospects.
Web Design
(Built to Convert, Not Just Impress)
A beautiful website means nothing if:
- It loads slowly on mobile
- Visitors can’t find answers quickly
- It looks great but doesn’t guide action
- In today’s world, most users decide in seconds whether to stay or leave.
Our Approach
We build high-speed, mobile-optimized websites designed around how people actually behave online.
The Benefit to You
- Higher engagement and lower bounce rates
- A site that works as a salesperson, not just a brochure
- Better performance on mobile devices
- Your website becomes a conversion machine, not a digital business card.
