A4U Expo London Launches Agenda

One of the bigger events in Europe in October is A4U Expo London 2012. After a successful European version in Barcelona earlier this year in October it is time again for A4U’s ‘home territory’: London.

Today A4U Expo launches their official agenda for the two days, which shows many different topics and some familiar faces there.

The conference has different topics covered. Topics including Data, Mobile, Engagement, Social Media, Affiliate Marketing, Analytics, User Experience, Search Marketing and Conversion will reinforce how the wider digital community are harnessing and integrating performance-based marketing on a far larger scale than has been seen previously. The two-day conference agenda will feature in excess of forty sessions across three tracks, designed to enable all delegates to benefit from beginner to advanced-level learning’s in our interactive theatre, plus key industry debate through our ‘panels-only’ session room – both of which are new for 2012.

Conference Update: Speakers, (free) Tickets and Dates

We’re in the middle of summer (or at least, that’s what the Calendar says) but already it is business as usual for many, including some conference organizers. As you know State of Search is the place to be when it comes to events in the search industry so we want to keep you updated on what is going on around those events. (more…)

The Case of the Failed Competition (Which has a winner)

At State of Search we take pride in being the place to be when it comes to events in the search industry. We believe that there is no other website which brings you this much valuable information around events as we do.

With the events comes the promotion of these events and the possibility to send readers there for free. Always nice for our readers! Now there are many ways of sending people to a conference for free. We’ve had the “Retweet contests” and at the last A4U we had a really successful one in which we challenged SEOs to rank on a specific keyword. This time with A4U we thought we’d try something different: a blogging contest.

But as it turns out we have to come clear: this contest failed. Big time. Even though we have a winner . (more…)

Scott Seaborn to Keynote A4UExpo Barcelona

In two weeks time A4U Expo Barcelona starts. The European version of the conference has been in Amsterdam and Munich before and now for the first time has a Southern European city hosting the conference. State of Search will off course be covering the event. Going up to the conference we will give you some insights into what will be going on there, while we again have bloggers present to make sure you hear what actually goes on in the sessions.

Today we can announce that Scott Seaborn, founder of the Ogilvy Group’s mobile division as well as the Digital Innovation Lab will be talking brand-building in the mobile space during his session titled, The Evolution of Mobile from a Creative Perspective.

Seaborn will be talking about brands such as Fanta, IBM, Coke Zero and Heineken, where the focus will lie on mobile off course.

Founder and MD of A4u, Matthew Wood, comments on Scott Seaborn’s addition to the a4uexpo Europe agenda:

“It’s inevitable that we’ll see entrepreneurs embrace performance marketing based ideologies and drive revenue and interaction purely on mobile. Scott’s enlightening keynote will put to the audience a number of traditional branding strategies and expose how these can relate with mobile to fully engage and influence the consumer.”

An example of successful mobile branding can for example be what Heineken did with their “Heineken Starplayer”

Kelvin Newman gets Questions from A4U

At A4U Expo next week it will not just be the video interviews we will be doing by which you can recognize State of Search. It will also not just be the coverage we will be providing. It will also be the speakers that will be there.
