What SEO conferences do you recommend?
-
I need your recommendations for which SEO conference I should attend to during 2011-2012.
I've been working with SEO since 2002 so I'm not a beginner. I want the good stuff!
However I havn't been to that many conferences before, only PubCon Las Vegas several times. I would therefore appreciate some help from you guys who have tried them all (or at least several of them) Thank's a lot!

My main SEO conference experience has been attending several SES and SMX events. I personally prefer the SMX events because I think they tend to have fresher topics, and it's a more comfortable conference to attend in that you have better food, more networking time between sessions, etc. SMX Advanced is good in that it's a somewhat smaller show, and has more advanced topics.
I think some of it depends on your focus. A small, focused seminar like EGOL talks about may be just what you need, or you may want a conference with a wider variety of topics.

The best two days that I have ever spent was at Brad Geddes' Adwords Seminars. I've attended them twice and learned a ton both times.
Go there expecting to THINK HARD. I thought they were about as challenging as a college calculus class.. anybody who thinks that he is going to sit there, sip coffee and fart should stay home. This is really a math class of conversion rates, bidding strategies and profit margins. Spreadsheets!

What would you expect an SEO agency to deliver in 6 months?
Hi All, Looking for some views/opinions on this one, my question is "What would you expect an SEO agency to have delivered for a single client over a 6 month period with a budget of £12k?" I appreciate that its fairly open ended and very subjective not knowing the site/circumstances but is there a general consensus or minimum you'd expect to have seen delivered for example x number of backlinks, x number pieces of content created, technical improvements made etc etc. Any steer, views or opinions would be greatly appreciated.

What are the most effective SEO methods for online communities and forums?
My company has a global online community of over 350,000+ members. We allow users to submit articles revolving around the scrum and agile framework. Sometimes the submissions become overwhelming and I am curious if there is anyone out there who may have experience with this same scenario. I don't want to place meta data on every single article that comes in, because I don't have the resources nor time to optimize each and every article. Does anyone have techniques or suggestions in regards to either leaving the meta data untouched or customizing each individual piece? Any thoughts or ideas will be extremely helpful. Thanks

How much dev knowledge as an seo do I need to know in order to make small changes on websites?
Hi mozzers I am considering learning some dev just to be able to make minor changes on websites. I love seo but will never want to be a programmer. I get sometimes frustrated that I have to request my dev colleague to make minor changes such as adding a small piece of codes to a website for verification purposes or adding rich snippet or modifying the ga code to get more out of it. I know some HTML and understands the core elements and attributes. My first question would be: what should I learn without learning A-Z of programming? My guess would be some php and? My second question: based on your answer where can I learn about these programs? Any interactive learning services such as team treehouse ? Any online courses? Thanks!

Developing A Survey To Assist With SEO Plan
Hello everyone, I searched through the forums to see if this has come up but it appears that it has not. I am in the process of developing an SEO plan for a client as part of an educational research project. As part of general research, we are planning on sending out a survey/questionnaire to all of the client's contacts in order to help us develop the SEO plan. Obviously a big emphasis would be placed on keywords (i.e. what keywords would you use if you were looking for ______) but there are other areas to look at as well. So, I would greatly appreciate any suggestions regarding the types of questions to ask in a SEO research project like this. What would you ask? What would you be interested in? If clarification is needed, please let me know.
