Issue # 203 (09-02-2003)
Have You Seen Me Lately ?Last week (August 18-24), The Search Engine Strategies Conference (SES) was held in San Jose, CA, at The Doubletree Hotel. Nearly 2000 attendees made the trek to Silicon Valley to dance with Google, soak in the sun, suck in the drinks; and network their rear-ends off. Oh, there were tons of very educational presentations as well… Read on. |

I consider myself somewhat of an Internet Conference Veteran, having attended seven different events, as well as being involved as a speaker on several occasions in The Internet Marketing Conferences, http://www.internetmarketingconference.com, (IMC) produced by JimGuide Lennart Svanberg. By and large, conferences such as SES and IMC follow a similar formula, a barrage of speakers armed with PowerPoint presentations, brief periods of Q & A, and a few hours of planned networking time at lunch and dinner. Typically, all of the smokers tend to find one another and conduct a bunch of side deals (Smoking may be bad for your health, but it's great for business), and the drinkers tend to do the same (Although for some reason, their deals seem to be distant memories by morning...).
Each conference has its own "feel." IMC is very much a professional event, very much geared towards educating you during every waking hour. Lennart does a great job of lining up a dizzying array of speakers who both entertain and educate. SES, on the other hand, had just as many presentations (many simply rehashed information from other sessions, but a few were extremely interesting), but the true value of the conference was the opportunity to network at the many sponsored parties and events. As not so subtly stated on the PubCon Web site (http://www.webmasterworld.com/conference/) "the real 'pro' work done at SEO conferences is done at the bar after the seminars let out...," and SES was certainly no exception. I'll let you in on a few tidbits and insights I picked up over the course of four days hanging out with the search engines and their minions:

Thank you for your review, I will benefit from your suggestions. I have one
question though. You said "In the source, you really need a meta description
for each page just as you do with any web site." How do I do this with blogger?

This "Scumbag of the Week" article is irresponsible. I had not trouble at all in receiving the following response from SpamArrest:
"Hi James,
Thank you for your email.
James, what you see there is absolutely wrong and is done to misguide our users and our new customers from Spam Arrest. We have over 1.5 million customers with us including you. You have been with us for a very long time, James. You can check with any of your contacts whether they have received any junk emails from us. We never do such a thing and its completely against our ethics! We hate spam as much as you do and so, along with stopping it, we make sure that none of our customer's emails are noted as spam. We warn our customers from sending bulk emails about the fact that their contacts might misunderstand their bulk emails as spam and will turn against them and Spam Arrest. A company following only such healthy practices can never do such a thing like spamming. What we value the most is our customer's trust and we will make all efforts to retain that in the best way possible. We never admit your personal information to any third party under whatsoever circumstances. You will find a whole lot of misleading things like this in Internet, James. We have friends and foes like anyone else in this planet.
I hope you will understand us the best way possible, James. Please do let me know if you need any further clarifications regarding this.
Best Regards,
Peter
Technical Support Specialist
Spam Arrest"
In the 3 years that I have used SpamArrest, I personally have never received one complaint from anyone that has been 'spammed' from any theoretical 'spam list' that SpamArrest may have created. I think that their statement above makes it clear that they would not do this.
I behooves you to publish a retraction.
