SEO Industry

Search Marketing Seminar in Ottawa

Since I moved to Ottawa, Ontario a little over a year ago, I have met many talented industry peers. While comparatively small, the Ottawa SEO community is alive and well, and I am flattered to have been asked to co-host a Search/Web Marketing Seminar on Thursday, October 23rd. This will be the first of a series, costs about $40 dollars to attend and you can register online here.

Topics covered by the speakers will include paid online marketing and I personally will be prattling on about organic search engine optimization best practices. This first seminar is designed as an overview for beginner to medium skill levels, but you’ll be able to ask me any questions you want and we’ll be working live on actual attendee sites in the interests of practical examples – which I insist on.

Space is limited to 25 people and the seminar itself includes a cocktail hour afterwards. The whole shooting match is conveniently located at the offices of Cyan Solutions at 58 Arthur Street. Register or read more details if you like and I hope to meet some of you local folks there.

Looking for SEO Pros in Ottawa

As much as I love telecommuting, there’s no complete substitution for collaborating in person – or at least having the option to drive less than 8 hours for a team meeting. I find myself in need of additional resources, and I am going to start the search in my own backyard. I’ll phrase this in the form of a razzle-dazzle monster listing and we’ll take it from there…

Are you a “nights and weekend” SEO looking to get into the exciting world of online marketing full time? Would you like to join an accomplished and experienced search marketing firm who can benefit from your existing skill set whilst improving it dramatically?

… and the usual nonsense you’ve read a million times, elsewhere. But seriously folks, if you are an experienced search marketing pro looking for a team, or hoping to supplement the income you make off your own related efforts, please say hello. Likewise, if you’ve yet to dabble in SEO but want to learn and are already in possession of above-average writing skills, say hello.

SEO in late 2007 is more about creativity and quality content generation and less about knowing where to stick the right keyword into a piece of HTML. If you’re hungry, literate and have a wild imagination – I’m willing to take on the less experienced in addition to the Gurus. I’ll need a few of both. We pay well, have many high-profile clients, are perfectly sane (which always helps) and we get results. One more time for the cheap seats – say hello and let’s just do the thing.
