SEOmoz Seminar - Sessions So Good They’ll Make Your Head Hurt!

As you all know I attended the SEOmoz Expert Training Seminar last week (Aug. 19 & Aug. 20) and I had previously told you that I would review the sessions for our readers once I got back. Well, unfortunately, I cannot review the sessions for you as they have asked us not to blog about what was taught at the various sessions. I totally respect that and have no issues with not being able to tell our readers what we learned. I can, however, let you know what the sessions were about. Then, you can see why my head hurt after the sessions were over! That’s just how good the sessions were at SEOmoz and I am definitely glad that I got to attend the event.

Day One

Thinking Like A Search Engineer - Rand Fishkin

Elite Site Architecture - Rand Fishkin & Stephan Spencer

White Hat Cloaking - Rand Fishkin

Spam Detection & False Positives - Nick Gerner

Legal Issues - Sarah Bird

Sitemaps & Webmaster Tools - Rand Fishkin & Stephan Spencer

Crawlability - Jeff Pollard

Day Two

Reputation Management - Will Critchlow & Duncan Morris

Social Networks For SEO - Jane Copland

Opportunities & Pitfalls Of Buying Links - Seth Besmertnik

Enterprise Link Building - Rand Fishkin

Vertical Search Inclusion - Stephan Spencer

Future Of Search Engines - Danny Sullivan

Expert Q&A - Danny Sullivan, Rand Fishkin, Stephan Spencer, Nick Gerner, Will Critchlow & Duncan Morris

These sessions were so great we’re going to implement quite a few of their suggestions in our services at Regency Interactive. Just to give you a hint of what we will be implementing; we’re going to offer more in depth site reviews, more social media services, putting more thought into conversions for our clients and so forth.

P.S. It was also great to meet the people I treat with on a daily basis: Alex Bennert, Brian Carter, Dana Lookadoo, Danny Sullivan, David Mihm, Derek Edmond, Dr. Pete, Duncan Morris, Jane Copland, Jeff Donenfeld, Joshua Sciarrino, Martin Bowling, Monica Wright, Stephan Spencer, Taylor Pratt and Will Critchlow.

P.S.S If you are ever at one of these events and by chance see something on someone’s shirt like say some chocolate from a Twix they ate a couple of hours before lunch then be sure and let them know it’s there. Otherwise, they will walk all around at lunch and throughout the rest of the day with chocolate rubbed in on his/her shirt. That’s not a good way to network now is it? :)

New Wordpress Blog & New Blog Look

We have finished converting our Blogger blog over to a Wordpress Blog. With the transfer to Wordpress also came a new look for our blog. So let us know what you think!

Also on a programming note, Regency Interactive will be attending the Experts Seminar being given by SEOmoz so there may not be any new posts next week. However, we should have a “wrap up” type blog post once we get back.
