Lee Odden had a great session at SES London. I sat down with him to discuss his talk, his view on Europe, his blog, his business and much more.
At SES London 2011 there are many knowledgable people. We see them, talk to them and interact them. But if you are not here, that is difficult to do, so we try to ask them questions and share that knowledge with you. In this interview we talk to Li Evans, author of the book “Social Media Marketing“.
In the video she discusses the book, how people should look at social and gives away some free tips!
Google has four areas on which it is focussing: search, social, local and mobile. On that last topic Eric Schmidt talked in Barcelona at the Mobile World Congress, before a packed room.
The opening keynote at SES London was done by Jeff Hayzlett (who we interviewed last year). A very interesting and inspiring talk. Mel Carson of Microsoft Advertising sat down with Jeff right after his keynote. You can see the interview below. Be sure to also look at the Microsoft Advertising blog, they are also covering SES London.
As you may notice we are a mediapartner for SES London 2011. This means that if you are not here you get the opportunity to learn all about the conference from our bloggers.
We have 5 different bloggers running around, plus some bloggers who are speakers at the conference. So if you are in London, come say hi. If you’re not, keep an eye on the State of Search website and follow our Twitter account to get notified for the latest updates.
We are also going to be trying some live interviewing, so stay in touch! (more…)
As mediapartner of SES London 2011 we’ll be bringing you everything about the conference you can possibly think off. For that we’ve already set up our special conference page where all the content surrounding SES London 2011 will be gathered. One of the things you can find there is this series, which we are starting today.

What sessions are they on, what are they talking about and what sessions are they looking forward to. You’ll find the answers in this series.
This final pre-show interview is for somebody very close to us: Jon Myers. He was appointed at Yahoo not very long ago and in his new job is moving up the ladder fast. He will be moderating and speaking at SES, of which he also is a board member. (more…)
It is not a surprise that Google keeps working on the look of the SERPS. In a year you will be able to see over 400 changes, which means that more than daily there will be something different on a Google SERP page. You just might not notice it. But lucky for us, a lot of SEOs do notice.
Today I’d like to highlight two changes which were spotted in the UK by two UK SEOs, Andrew Girdwood and Matt Sawyer. They spotted some sort of ‘how to’s’ and related searches in different categories. Both yet more elements which are put in Universal search. (more…)

Today we take a little side step, not a speaker, but a visitor and Sponsor of SES at the same time: Andy Betts, Strategy, Marketing and Development Director of SearchIgnite Europe (more…)
Several months ago we were devistated when we heard that a good friend an well respected SEO in the UK had passed away after a tragic accident. Since the moment that the news about Jaamit Durrani’s death broke something happened which I have never seen before. The community started to move and delivered a tribute on Social Media which know no equal.
At the upcoming SES London this week the community will again be tributing this very special person who even after his death knows to touch people and get them moving. (more…)
Google is taking it step by step, a very different way than we are used to in this digital era, but slowly but surely Google’s social face is becoming more visible. The latest additions to the Google search results are yet again another signal of Google’s social efforts.
Googles Social Search has been around for a while now (since 2009) but is only showing a small amount of social elements. Social results coming from tools like Twitter for example, were until now not a very big part of the search result. Google now has started to mix social results, from for example Twitter or blogs, with other results. (more…)
