Track 1 – SEO Camp Technical SEO: HTML5, Panda Update and more Focus: SEO How do you prioritize improvements to technical architecture? Is HTML5 the new standard and what are the key differences to HTML4? What impact does and will the Panda update make? Is it really all that important to speed up client-side page load times? Server side load times? Change your IIS configuration to stop generating those default.aspx pages and case-insensitive URLs? What technical SEO advice is just the latest fad and what’s really going to make the difference in improved customer acquisition from search. Moderator: |

Track 2 – SMX Advanced The SoLoMo Revolution: Social Media, Local Search & Mobile Search Collide Focus: ALL For the first time, web-enabled mobile devices like smart phones and tablets are outselling computers as people increasingly want to be online everywhere.

Track 1 – SEO Camp Link Alchemy: Creative Ways Of Conjuring SEO Gold Focus: SEO Despite all the recent changes in search engine algorithms, links remain the single most important part of an effective search marketing campaign. And to successfully compete, you need to go beyond traditional link building techniques to create natural but scalable campaigns. What tools are available to analyse competitor links? What non-traditional channels, such as .edu links and retweets can be used? Our speakers show you how to reinvigorate your link building campaigns and take them to the next level. Moderator: |

Track 2 – SMX Advanced Remarketing For Fun And Profit Focus: ALL Some call it remarketing; others call it retargeting, but if you aren’t doing it you’re squandering both money and opportunity to build stronger relationships with your customers. Remarketing involves understanding user intent via search, and then subsequently advertising to each individual with a combination of search, display or other online ads beyond search, reinforcing your messaging and increasing the likelihood of conversion. Sounds complicated, but recent developments have made it relatively easy to launch and run remarketing campaigns. Our panelists show you how. Moderator: |

Track 1 – SEO Camp SEO & User Generated Content Focus: SEO The “voice of the customer” can be a dual-edged sword. Positive reviews and comments can help reinforce reputation or even persuade others to buy. Negative feedback can be the kiss of death if it gets out of hand. But ultimately, applying good SEO to user generated content extends the reach of your site and gives you more potential touch points with searchers, particularly if you mine your UGC for keyword research. Come see how several sites are turning the (free) content created by their customers into search engine gold. Moderator: |

Track 2 – SMX Advanced Search Analytics & Competitive Intelligence Focus: SEM and SEO Your competitors are smart and aggressive. Knowing their search marketing strategy allows you to validate your own, and to outflank them with innovative tactics. Search analytics is the answer. This session shows you how to implement and profit from a comprehensive competitive intelligence campaign. Moderator: |

Track 1 – SEO Camp SEO KPIs Focus: SEO How can you measure the financial success of SEO? We have more data points than we can count to help us track how search engines and users come to our site. But PIs and visits are getting rather old fashioned. Which KPIs make sense for advanced SEO, what are actionable insights and which metrics are a waste of time? So bottom line, in Euros, Kronas, Dollars etc… what is the result of SEO? In this session we show you how and with which tools you can make sense of the data chaos and focus on what really matters.

Track 2 – SMX Advanced Mobile Apps & How They’re Revolutionizing Search Focus: SEM Apple CEO Steve Jobs is famous for saying “…on the desktop search is where it’s at; that’s where the money is. But on a mobile device search hasn’t happened. Search is not where it’s at, people are not searching on a mobile device like they do on the desktop.” Oh really? There are currently more than 200,000 apps for the iPhone and 100,000 and growing for Google’s Android – and many are built around search. This session looks at popular search apps on different devices, how they gather data and the new, away from the desktop opportunities they offer to marketers. Speaker: |
