Search Marketing Expo East

“It was a great event; just over a week later, I’m still trying to digest all of the wonderful information! Can’t wait until SMX East ’10!”

“Loved the show, hope to be able to attend again next year. There seems no better place to keep up with the latest trends and technologies, from the leading experts.”

“Great conference, I wish I could have attended for more than one day!”

“Overall-it was a great conference. Great opportunities to network with others in the industry and share issues and ideas.”

“The speakers were insightful and informative, and some were very entertaining as well!”

“The show was really informative. It was tough to determine which sessions to attend since most were at the same time. Overall, I think it was a great experience, with tons of information – really helped open my eyes!”

“This was the best show ever! The sessions had timely topics and the speakers were knowledgeable and came from a broad perspective. I will be hiring at least three vendors and 1 speaker that I met through the show. I will definitely be back next year.”

“SMX remains an excellent learning and networking opportunity. We’re planning to attend next year.”

“Great conference. I would definitely attend again. There were several instances where I had a very tough time deciding which session to go to.”

“I am exceptionally satisfied with my experience at this conference. One aspect that still amazes me is the level of networking that took place. Everyone was friendly, open to sharing, and more than willing to continue contact. I hope I can participate again next year! Great group of people.”

“Awesome conference, content was overall really good better than competing conferences. SMX West and Advanced are still my favorite of all the Search conferences.”

“Overall, a great conference. I really enjoyed the ecommerce session.”

“Very informative and enjoyable conference.”

“An excellent seminar overall, there was an incredible array of speakers, see you again next year!”

“SMX is a fantastic conference – it is one of the few places where you can learn everything about the online industry.”

“SMX West never disappoints. The food was great, the shwag was great and the sessions were informative.”

“SMX West was great – it got me very excited about SEO again!”

“I went to the Search Marketing Expo last week, and that was a whole new world for me.”

“Thanks for a wonderful conference this week in NYC. I’ve been raving about it to anyone who will listen. The topics were great, the discussions were really intelligent, the audience participation was high level. The peer-to-peer was dead on. Great job, can’t wait for the next one.”

“During the final day of SMX East. I sat in a fascinating session where search engineers from Google, Yahoo! and Microsoft all answered questions posed by the audience and filtered by moderator Danny Sullivan. I have, in my 5 years of search conferences, attended numerous sessions like this, but I must say that this was, if not the best one I’ve attended, very close to it. The questions were excellent and the responses were forthright, honest, direct and never condescending. It was not only refreshing to hear, but remarkably valuable.”

“This conference was phenomenal. Exhibitors and attendees were engaged.”

“Wow, SMX East in New York was really good! Great speakers, great subjects and great sessions. I especially enjoyed the more outspoken sessions, like ask the SEOs on Wednesday and What is Ethical Social Media Marketing on Tuesday.I’m positive we’ll be attending SMX regularly in the future, maybe as soon as coming November since there’ll be an edition in London around that time.”

“I walked out of many of the sessions feeling like the 20 or so tips I gained made the cost well worth it. In fact, there’s strong value there for most people.”

“(SMX West producer) Third Door Media not only hit a home run, at this show, they took the cover right off of the ball. The place was packed but that’s only part of the point. The information was amazing but, that too is only part of the point. SMX felt different, vibrant. It was the little things included in the planning for SMX West that made a difference. Items like fresh fruit, blogging tables in sessions, free WiFi through-out the venue, specialized social networking games and the brilliant Search Marketing Bowl session made life far easier for attendees.”

“SMX West was nothing but an experience. It was something you had to be in on if you wanted to extract any worth from. Did I learn a lot? Of course! Did I find some great things out? Of course! Will I share them here? NO! Get off your ass and get yourself to the next SMX event if you want to find out what’s up in the world of SEM.”

“If you have ever considered attending one of these events, I hope you will take my recommendation and make it happen. SMX offers so many great advantages in this industry, and it would be a shame to miss out.”

“I wasn’t sure what to expect with SMX West as this was the first large SMX event. I heard great things about at last summer’s SMX Advanced from clients and friends but there was short notice to fit this event into annual budgets of attendees and exhibitors. Now that it’s over I can say that the event was a big success all the way around and portends well for the SMX brand.”

“I’ve known and worked with Danny since 1997. After 10+ years of attending and speaking at his conferences I still find them fresh, informative and essential. His writing is required reading to maintain an edge and insight into the search industry. Danny’s overall level of expertise and professionalism are only matched by his wit and whimsical approach as well as his stellar singing voice.”

“SMX is a great experience for all levels of SEM/SEO professionals. This conference differentiates itself from other Search Marketing events with a clear division between SEO and SEM and focuses on advanced topics not normally covered in other conferences. The open discussion forum which included all major Search Engines presented an outlet for future industry needs and enhancements.”

“SMX Advanced was a resourceful and engaging conference consisting of intelligent speakers and an intelligent crowd.”

“SMX Local & Mobile was a fantastic conference experience that helped attendees combine today’s understanding of local and mobile search offerings with tomorrow’s promise. It was the perfect blend of local search, mobile search and the Internet.”

“At an SMX conference, you learn from the speakers and the other attendees, who are also some of the most battle-hardened search marketers in this business. I got tremendous insights just hearing the questions they asked in the sessions, and in talking with them between sessions about challenges they face.”
