I am limiting this FREE event to 15 people and locating it in an actual room. We had over 20 attendees at the last event so if you plan to come sign-up now.

Also, I have joined Portent Interactive as a Search Marketing Analyst so I am transitioning SEO Critique away from consulting and positioning it as an education and think-tank company. Look for additional events soon.

Right now I am scheduled for:

Search Marketing Coffee - May 12 http://biznik.com/events.html?id=331

LIOS to Launch: Get Clear, Get Practical, Get Going - July 28 & 29th http://writewithmeaning.com/lios/

I will also be attending SMX Advanced Seattle so you can network with me there - June 4th & 5th http://searchmarketingexpo.com/smx_advanced07/

What Internet/Search Marketing Coffee Topics Do You Want?

Hello Biznikers,

It's been nearly a month since the first Search Marketing Coffee and it's time to schedule the next one. First, I may change the name to

Internet Marketing Coffee

This reflects the wider reality; search engine marketing is only a part of the much larger picture.

Second, I'd like to get your feedback:

What topics would you like to have covered? What questions are you dying to ask? What will make an Internet marketing FYI session worthwhile and valuable to you?

Thanks everyone, Tom

Get a BizJam Seattle Preview!

Yesterday ingr!d alvarez mcneely presented All About Blogging - For Beginners! (It was fabulous) During the second half of the event I spoke about kick-starting your search engine marketing campaign.

In many ways this was a rehearsal for my BizJam Seattle presentation, "Competing for Effective Google Rankings." If you would like to get a preview and a taste I posted my slide show and some resource links here: http://www.seocritique.com/sem/33/sem-kickstart-presentation-march-28-2007/

Of course, if you want to know what I said about each of these slides you'll have to come to BizJam Seattle. ;)

Free Meeting Locations

I'm hoping that the group can recommend locations that have free meeting spaces throughout the Greater Seattle area. If you have a suggestion it would help to know what hours it is available and if WiFi is an option.

Thanks,

Tom
