Introduction
As an owner of both SEOmoz Basic SEO Training DVD and the SEOmoz Advanced Training DVD, I knew that the speakers knew their stuff and they looked like a fun crowd to boot. So I decided to attend the SEO Expert Training live conference in London on October 19 and 20.
Was the trip to London worthwhile?
Definitely yes, but…
Let’s start with the program which Distilled and SEOmoz organised for us. In a word, superb. The program included dedicated sessions on:
- link building
- site structure
- social campaigns
- SEO tools
- content strategy
- conversion techniques
- SEO team management
- Google penalties and penalty filters
- Google analytics
For the most part this partial list of topics is a dreamlist of issues which I’d like to hear about in depth.
