Who is Mozcon for?
-
Hello!
I own and operate an online retail store for batteries. Basically, I live and die on search engine ranking. I have been working with two well established SEO companies that have significantly strengthened my standings in both Bing and Google search engines. I have a good understanding of SEO and the various aspects that it is comprised of.
My question to you guys - should I attend Mozcon? Is this event geared more towards marketing companies or is there any potential for a small SEO savvy business owner to attend? Stepping away from my company for four days is a rather large commitment at the current moment - I need to be certain this event is worth it for someone like me.
Any thoughts?

Hi Richard,
As an SEO who works with small to medium-sized businesses, I have to say that the more genuine understanding a client has of what we are doing and why, the less time I have to waste explaining things to them.
My most cherished client is one who has taken the time to develop a real understanding of the process and the pitfalls. Investing in making yourself more helpful to those who are helping you is always a good idea...and since it is likely they may also be represented at Mozcon, it could be an awesome opportunity to spend some time and gain a deeper understanding of the work they are doing and the challenges they face in doing it.
My special client is the ONLY one who doesn't say things like "do we really need to bother with that" on a regular basis. I love him for it and I know it makes me more valuable to him in the long run.
Hope we'll see you at Mozcon

If you live and die by search marketing than MozCon is the place for you. Our content is intermediate/advanced topics and covers for many different types of markets from small business owners to medium companies and agencies or huge companies. You should be able to walk away with a lot of information directly applicable to your work.
Some people MozCon isn't for:
1. Super beginners -- our audience is intermediate to advanced, and it would probably be over their heads.
2. People who aren't into inbound marketing. If you're not into SEO, social media, content marketing, analytics, or conversion rate optimization, MozCon probably isn't of interest to you.

I think there's considerable value in understanding more that goes into SEO and how you can build your business both short term and long term in the World of Search. When you say "Basically, I live and die on search engine ranking.", that really answers the question itself for you.

[UPDATED] Any Q&A Regulars Attending MozCon Next Week?
[Update] Between here and the MozCon Facebook Group we've got a number of folks interested, so we're going to grab a table together for lunch on Tuesday at the conference. I'll try to mark it with something noticeable, or you can tweet me @thompsonpaul and I'll let you know where to find us. Hope to see lots of us there! [/Update] Hey gang - I'm wondering which Q&A regular (or irregular!) contributors are coming to MozCon next week? I know Dana Tan and Marie Haynes are for sure. So who else is coming? If there's a bit of a gang of us, it would be fun to connect up for a lunch table or a drink at some point during the event to meet each other face-to-face. Let me know in the comments, and if there are enough of us, I'll set something up. Paul

Roger, Can You Please Help Get Me in Mozcon?
I am a newbie to amazing tools like Moz! Yup, I joined in December and there is no looking back and no regrets. Well, until now. Here’s my sad story. I have been hearing about Mozcon for months. And I have told a number of colleagues that I am definitely going to that! Especially since I have two reasons to go all the way to the Northwest in July… My 21YO son is a competitive snowboarder and video blogger living at Mt. Hood during the summer. I can visit him and go to Seattle for Mozcon.

When I checked the site for cost and tickets, the early bird incentive had already expired, so I figured I would pick up my ticket in July. I went ahead and booked the hotel and airfare from North Carolina. So, I am all set.
At the beginning of the month, I go to buy the ticket and they are SOLD OUT!
OMG!
I am already coming and there are no tickets for sale.
I had no idea that a workshop at the big Seattle convention center would sell out.
I know you guys are cool and that you have a super connected following, but SOLD OUT?
I had no idea. I wait listed myself, but I have heard nothing.
So… I am at the crossroads here…
ROGER! Can you please find just one more ticket for the newbie in North Carolina??
Please...
Please help if you can. So disappointed in NC~ Terry0 -

SEO MozCon 2012
Hello All, I'm new here in SEOmoz and I'm a Pro member. I currently have a couple of clients and growing. 🙂 My question is, I recently got an email about the SEO MozCon 2012 in Seattle going on in July. For those that have been to one of these in the past, can you tell me if this is worth the investment? Can you convince me why I should go? Thanks in advance! Jocelyn

Mozcon Sold out
Went to sign up for MOZcon last night and found it was sold out. I would have bought this many weeks or months ago, but I'm brand new to SEOmoz. I'm completely hooked and REALLY want to go to the convention. I signed up for the wait list and it states they are trying to expand the venue. What are the odds of that happening? Does anyone have any other ideas on how to get tickets?

MozCon access from overseas
Is MozCon filmed? Will it be available after the event? I'm half a world away and unfortunately most likely would not be able to get there this year.
