Before many industry conferences and before a lot of the conferences I attend, I hand-pick a list of speakers to meet and see. This list is completely in random order, not in order of importance. This year at Pubcon Austin 2020, I’ve hand picked 33 speakers of the total number of speakers that are speaking at this year’s Austin event. [Read more…]
Every year at this time I hand-pick a list of speakers that I recommend you meet and see speak–the information they bring to the industry and what you’ll learn from them is invaluable. For all of the major search conferences, whether I’m speaking or not, you may be familiar with my list, called Bill’s List. I hand pick the best of the best speakers to meet and see speak at the conference. PubCon Pro Las Vegas 2019 is no different. [Read more…]
Fake email conference attendee contact lists are being sold and the latest targeted conference appears to be Pubcon Las Vegas. Emails that are going out to what a NextGenExpos thinks is a list of exhibitors seeks to sell that they’re calling a contact list of an updated attendees list. I am not an exhibitor at Pubcon Las Vegas 2019–although for some reason I received an email from this company as if I’m currently exhibiting at the conference. [Read more…]
Whenever there’s a great search industry conference coming soon, especially the ones that I’m attending or speaking at, I put together Bill’s List. These are my personal hand-picked speakers that you absolutely must-see or meet at the conference. This time it’s Pubcon Florida 2019, being held at the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention Center in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The Masters Group Workshop is March 5, 2019, and the conference runs March 6-7, 2019. [Read more…]
For all of the major search conferences, whether I’m speaking or not, you may be familiar with my list. I hand pick the best of the best speakers to meet and see speak at the conference. PubCon Pro Las Vegas 2018 is no different. I’ve hand picked the best of the best, the top speakers that you personally should get to know. They’re all really good at what they do, and you should get to know them, talk to them, pick their brain, and, of course, hire them. [Read more…]
Whenever there is a great upcoming major digital marketing conference or search engine marketing (search marketing) conference, I review all of the speakers. Then, I hand pick the best of the speakers, based on my personal past observations, and come up with a list of the best speakers to see and meet at that conference. [Read more…]
Whenever there is a great search marketing or related conference, such as Pubcon, I review the speakers and hand pick a list of the best speakers to see if you’re attending the conference. And, the upcoming Pubcon Florida 2018 is no different. Being held at the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention Center in Ft. Lauderdale, FL, April 10 to 12th, it’s a conference that I’m sad about missing this year. I’ve spoken at this conference several times in the past, and it’s a great conference. [Read more…]
Before ever major search conference and before a lot of the conferences I attend, I hand-pick a list of speakers to see at that conference. I call it Bill’s List. This list is completely in random order, not in order of importance. But sometimes I’ll put it in alphabetical order, like I did this time. This year’s SMX San Jose conference is, yet again, a great one with a bunch of speakers. [Read more…]

Every so often, there’s a conference that I attend and speak at that I really look forward to every year. Pubcon Las Vegas is one of those conferences. Some years I attend and speak at up to 18 conferences, and this one has to be my favorite. Not because it’s held in Las Vegas, but because of the attendees and speakers. I have made more friendships and learned more at Pubcon than any other conference series. The networking is top-notch, and the content keeps getting better and better. [Read more…]

I assume by now you realize just how much I love digital marketing, SEO, website marketing, search engine marketing, local search, local SEO, social, social media marketing, and whatever else you personally “call it”. Beyond the fact that this industry pays my bills, I personally value helping my clients and friends to achieve more success in their businesses. [Read more…]

Attending SMX West 2017 in San Jose this week? Whenever I attend (and speak) at conferences, I like to take the time before the conference to look at the list of speakers. I’ve been speaking at and attending internet marketing and search marketing conferences for over 16 years now. [Read more…]

During that first evening, back in 2004 when Jim Gilbert and I first met with 16 of the best internet marketers and SEOs in the D/FW area, I never thought I’d be posting now about the State of Search conference. You see, I had hand-picked those first 16 people and personally invited them to show up to what ended up as being the very first Dallas/Fort Worth Search Engine Marketing Association meeting. That was the founding group, the founding members. [Read more…]
