A Full Day of SEO

Tomorrow I will be attending my third straight SearchFest. Once again this year SearchFest 2009 is being held at the Oregon Zoo’s Cascade Crest Banquet Center. The SEMpdx SearchFest is the premier Search Engine Marketing conference it the Pacific Northwest. Last years SEMpdx SearchFest ’08 was spectacular and this years looks even better.

SMX Advanced | SEOmoz | Black Hat vs White Hat

Oh no! Not another report from SMX Advanced in Seattle, June ’08. Everyone else reported on the sessions and Amplify-Interactive has a very good detailed one! I have decided to report on the Expo Hall.
No Black Hats SEOPDX White Hat of Gary Pool
As I walked through the paths in the expo hall during the rush of the lunch break I couldn’t help but wonder “what goes on at these booths while we are supposed to be learning all these black hat techniques?” I actually made my way through each and every booth. The booth that was the most active always seemed to be the SEOmoz booth.
