Upcoming search engine conferences and workshops(August 17 2003) Are you looking for the latest on the SE scene, itching to meet colleagues and competition or do you simply need some inspiration? Why not check out some search engine conferences and workshops? Here are some conferences taking place in the next few months: Pubconference V in London September 20th
More than 300 Webmasters and Internet search and marketing experts from around the world will gather to discuss the latest issues, technologies and developments and to meet delegates from the major search services including Google and Yahoo! The event will feature representatives and exhibitors from over 20 industry companies. One of the unique aspects of Pubconference is this opportunity for face-to-face discussions with the major search services, suppliers of technology and, of course, to discuss current issues with Internet specialists and more than 300 of their peers, says Brett Tabke, WebmasterWorlds owner and conference organizer. It was actually the Pandia team that came up with the term "pubconference". (Yes, it's true, ask Brett if you don't believe us) The original idea was to get away form the boring conference auditoriums and get right down to the important stuff: the networking. Pandia will take part this year as well. Maybe we can meet for a pint? Pubconference homepage Search Engine Strategies ConferenceDanny Sullivan is probably the most well known and respected search engine expert around today, which makes his Search Engine Strategies Conferences all the more important. The latest conference is taking place shortly, on August 18 to 21 in San Jose, California. Among the keynote speakers are no other than Sergey Brin, cofounder of Google and Jeff Weiner, senior vice president of Search and Marketplace, in Yahoo! Danny will, of course, also make a presentation. The fact that people like Brin and Weiner find it useful to attend, says a lot about the status of these events. Among the themes of the conference are "writing for the search engines", "search engine friendly design" and "search term research". There will be another Search Engine Strategies conference in Munich (München) in Germany on November 10. and 11. However, that one requires more than a superficial knowledge of German, so English-speaking Europeans will probably wait for the next conference in London in 2004. Search Engine Strategies Conference San Jose August 2003 Search Engine Workshops
The workshops, which focus on search engine marketing and optimization, are organized in such a way that you can attend with others on your own experience level. The price includes support for six months. You can now choose between a 2-day beginners workshop, a 3-day advanced workshop and a 5-day all-inclusive workshop. Web Search UniversityThe Web Search University will arrange a new conference in Washington D.C. on September 8 and 9. As the name implies this conference's main focus is on searching, not search engine optimization. Still there is one session on optimization held by Chris Sherman, co-editor of Search Engine Watch. Among the other sessions we would like to mention:
Web Search University Washington Conference Second Annual Search Engine Marketing EventThe second annual Search Engine Marketing Event is, according to AIMA (the Atlanta Interactive Marketing Association), the largest search engine marketing seminar in the US Southeast. The seminar includes senior level managers from top national search engine marketing and media companies, including Google, Overture, 360TRAFFIC, Advertising.com, Prominent Placement and others. Actually, the conference fee includes a party sponsored by Google! Search Engine Marketing ClassMike Grehan and Jim Sterne arranges a new Internet Marketing Class at the Newcastle Business School, UK, on October 1st 2003. Mike Grenhan, the author of the excellent guide to SEO called Search Engine Marketing The Essential Best Practice Guide, will give introductions to search engine optimization, the use of pay per click text ads, search engine friendly site design, traffic measuring and more. Jim Sterne, the author of Web Metrics ñ Proven Methods for Measuring Web Site Success, will talk about how to benchmark web success and how to calculate the return of your investments.
