Brighton is a hotspot of SEO talent, you only need to look at the pages of the WiredSussex directory to appreciate that. But unlike our cousins up in London it’s rare we get to sit down together, talk a little shop, gossip about other companies and generally have a good chinwag.
The guys at FreshEgg kindly sponsored the last #BrightonSEO event before Christmas and after seeing the great success it was a few of us talked about making the next event even bigger and better.
So I bit the bullet and booked the next event at The Quadrant Brighton from 2PM on February 19th. Even the more hardened drinkers among you may blink at starting at 2 but it’s that early to include a half day free mini-conference as well as the social beers in the evening from half 6.
Anyone is welcome offer to give a knowledge sharing presentation in the afternoon (by droping me an email on kelvin.newman@sitevisibility.com) we’ve already had some great volunteers from local experts and a few people from the rest of the country but it would be great to highlight some new talent who may never have spoken at an event like this before.
As always with these kind of events they go better with a few free beers for everyone, so if you sell a product or service to search marketers and want to buy their favour with beverages get in touch and we’ll see if we can come to an arrangement. Or maybe your feeling generous and fancy buying a round in advance anyways.
So spread the news on your blogs and twitter accounts and let us know in the comments here or on linkedin if your coming.
