100 Episodes of SEM Synergy!

Posted by Virginia Nussey on 03/15/2010 @ 4:09 pm | Comments (0)

SEM Synergy this week will be live, and Bruce Clay will be talking to callers and answering questions on the show! People that hang out in the WebmasterRadio.FM chat room during SEM Synergy each week (and really, why aren’t you there?) know that I’m asked “Is this live?” about once per episode. How excited am I to be able to say “YES!” this time around?!

SEM Synergy, our weekly radio show and podcast here at BCI, is actually going live for a very special reason: our 100th episode! (Pay no attention to the episode count on iTunes. It’s a little thrown off because the episode from SES San Jose 2008 was eaten alive by technical issues…)

Friday Recap: Pop-Up Video Edition

screen shot from SEO interview video

Are you in the mood for some videos? My collection of odds and ends from surveying the Web this week came up heavy on the videos. Nevermind the stats that people have been viewing fewer videos online lately, according to comScore. I bet we can edge that number back up with this blog post alone! :P

At SMX West last week, Jennifer Lopez of SEOmoz and Dana Lookadoo of Yo! Yo! SEO interviewed a handful of attendees with a series of five questions. I was honored to be asked to join in, though completely petrified at the prospect of being stumped on camera. Note the visible sigh of relief as I answer each question. Otherwise, it’s super entertaining to hear these notable Internet marketers’ answers!

SES New York 2010 Liveblog Coverage

Look out, Big Apple. Search Engine Strategies is coming to town. As always, Bruce Clay, Inc. will be there with blue shirts and plenty of knowledge to share. We’ve got a bunch of ways to do that this year. First up, on Monday, start the conference off right with SEO training. It’s an all-day class taught by Bruce and you get to take home a copy of the book I spent a year of my life on, SEO for Dummies All in One.

At the conference itself, you can visit our booth (#1217) or you can catch one of Bruce’s three speaking opportunities. I’m thinking the White Hat, Black Hat: Unconferenced session at the bar is going to be unmissable.

As for me? I’m liveblogging this time around and you’ll find my schedule below. Use it wisely to plan treats, bribes and icepacks for my hands.

Just a quick note of congratulations to Bruce Clay and the newly elected SEMPO Board of Directors for the 2010-2012 term.

Bruce has been a passionate advocate of SEMPO’s mission of education, research and awareness during his first term on the board, and I know he is thrilled to have the opportunity to serve the search engine marketing industry for a second term.

In the Internet marketing industry, we’re all constantly pushing ourselves to learn more and grow what we know. It’s not unlike what you want for your own children — education and opportunities that build a foundation for future success.

Turns out the search community is interested in sharing just such opportunities with students, a.k.a. the future of the world. Right now Google, Bing and the White House are all running contests and programs for children and young adults that promote learning and education in fun and creative ways. If you think your child might be interested in taking pictures, developing software or code, or hearing the President deliver the high school commencement address, check out the following opportunities.

3 Takeaways from SMX West 2010

Posted by Virginia Nussey on 03/08/2010 @ 5:32 pm | Comments (2)
liveblogging

SMX West was a rollercoaster of highs, lows, twists and turns. The highs of adrenaline-fueled excitement, the lows of getting the lowdown from the search reps, and the twists and turns of going with the flow during such an activity-filled week.

I was on that ripping ride of a rollercoaster for three days, and while it was a blast and a half, I’m glad to be back on the ground where I can process everything that just happened. While reviewing my liveblog coverage of SMX West I was struck by three major points worth highlighting.
