| March 26, 2008Last week's Search Engine Strategies conference in NYC went really well. The organic SEO session that I spoke at had some interesting questions posed by audience members. I even broke my no-party rule and checked out MSN's party at Slate. It was surprisingly fun for 2 reasons: 1) it wasn't too loud, and 2) they had ping-pong tables! Read More >> Related Forum Posts >>

| March 26, 2008I wanted to give you a heads-up that ROI Revolution is starting their next Google Analytics Training Series on April 10, 2008.

| February 20, 2008In the last newsletter I told you about all sorts of educational opportunities in the search marketing space. Aside from the online learning previously mentioned (SEMPO Institute, Marketing Experiments) and the large conferences (such as SMX West and Search Engine Strategies), or the very small, customized High Rankings SEO Training Classes, there are a couple of other search marketing educational opportunities you may also be interested in.

| January 16, 2008I really would like to go to a SEO conference someday, but which? I'm not an SEO novice and PPC is not my strategy. Plus being #1 what could anybody teach me, anyway? Now, I know that is a very stupid and dangerous statement. ;-) Future trends or expert hints very specific to my site are what I think I need. What do you think?

But I figure it can't be worse than it is in my head thinking about it. At least I hope not! Read More >> Related Forum Posts >>

| October 3, 2007The Google Analytics Online Training Course from ROI Revolution that we
mentioned last week is starting this Thursday, Oct. 4. You can still apply
the $100 High Rankings discount by simply typing "highrankings" into the
discount code field when you register. I believe that even if you miss the
first live class you could watch it online, so don't be shy about signing up
late.

| September 26, 2007In my search to broaden my knowledge, I came across the good folks at ROI
Revolution. I checked into their credentials, and was pleased to see that
they are a Google Analytics authorized consultant. Plus, their course
covered training on every aspect of learning Google Analytics. I was quickly
sold on their service and signed up for their Deluxe Google Analytics
Training Series, which appeared to be the best value. Read More >> Related Forum Posts >>

| July 11, 2007Last night was our third SEMNE event (Search Engine Marketing New England), and we were humbled to have Dan Crow, director of crawl systems at Google, spilling the beans about how to get your site into Google. He talked for a half hour or so, and then proceeded to answer audience questions for at least another hour. As I sat there listening to him (yes, I actually listened to this one!), I was struck by what an awesome opportunity it was for everyone in that room to be provided with such important information — straight from Google. It was clear that the 100 or so people in the room agreed. In fact, at 7:30 on the dot, everyone spontaneously stopped their networking activities and simply took their seats without being asked to. These folks definitely came to hear Google! Read More >> Related Forum Posts >>
