SMA-UK — New SEM Association for the UK

Search engine marketers in the UK have announced their plans for their own industry association: Search Marketing Association UK. A few interesting things that set them apart from SEMPO:

They are starting with a working group to grow their base and determine their mission from the ground up.
Political lobbying is already on the table as a potential use for the association.
No mention of fees (yet).

It will be interesting to see what direction this will take…
