IndustrySES Brings SEM, PPC and SEO Training Workshops to Atlanta

SES Brings SEM, PPC and SEO Training Workshops to Atlanta

On May 5, 2009, Search Engine Strategies (SES) will hold four search engine marketing (SEM) training workshops at the Omni Hotel CNN Center in Atlanta, GA. The hands-on workshops cover a range of topics, including search engine optimization (SEO) and pay per click (PPC) advertising.

Have you ever wondered why the search engine marketing industry uses the three-letter acronym (TLA) so frequently? Were we trying to squeeze too much information into the 25-character limit for a Google AdWords headline or secretly preparing for Twitter’s more generous 140-character limit?

Anyway, attendees can choose one workshop or participate in one workshop in the morning and another in the afternoon. The fee for two workshops is $1,345, and the fee for one workshop is $745. For complete workshop details and registration information, visit SEM Training Atlanta.

There are two morning workshops, which are being held from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m.

Finally, How to Effectively Use Social Media for Search Marketing Campaigns reviews the entire realm of social media environments and how to use them effectively as part of a holistic marketing campaign. The instructor is Liana “Li” Evans, the director of Internet marketing at Key Relevance. Evans is well-versed in all avenues of search marketing, with a particular focus on natural search optimization, vertical search, social media and word-of-mouth marketing.

I interviewed Evans about her social media panel at SES Toronto 2008. In her session, she talked about winning social media strategies from companies such as Dell, Houlihan’s, and Loblaw’s. Loblaw’s, for example, actively participated in social media conversations not only by creating a YouTube channel to promote its product, but by taking to heart user feedback gathered from that channel and changing their product to reflect the needs expressed by their consumers.
