Focus alerts you to the topic categories of each session:


Level indicates how much knowledge you need to benefit most from the session:
“ANY” sessions are suitable for those with any skill level in SEM. Beginners will understand what’s explained, but the sessions are also helpful to intermediate and advanced people.

"INTERMEDIATE" sessions are designed for those with working experience in search marketing. Don’t feel you’re intermediate level? If you’ve attended sessions in the SMX Boot Camp track, you’ll be better prepared for intermediate sessions.

“EXPERT” sessions are for experienced search marketing pros. These sessions assume a high level of knowledge and don’t stop to explain the basics.

Editorial & Sponsored Sessions

Most sessions at SMX are “editorial” ones, where speakers have been selected based on the quality of their content, and the session is organized by the SMX programming team. Editorial sessions do not have paid spots, where speaking slots are sold.

Sponsors & Partners Track sessions are paid speaking slots, where the content is produced by the sponsor themselves. These sessions are open to those with full conference passes and those with Expo Plus passes.

Solution Spotlights are brief paid introductions given by sponsors and exhibitors.

Track Sponsors have their company associated with a particular track, in the way that sponsors also are associated with the entire show. However, Track Sponsors do not program a track or have any editorial speaking slots on it. Similarly, show sponsors do not influence or control the overall editorial sessions.
