Search Engines Marketing Blog

Just came back from WITS 4 (web masters in The Sun), it was GREAT, the best conference I had for years !
here are my top 10 reasons why WITS is the top SEO conference around:

10. Seeing the Gibraltar monkeys jumping on your friends heads without any warnings
9. Seeing the faces of the people while driving in the 888 stretched hummer
8. The Parties and 300 Euros entertainments at night ….
7. Seeing our best poker champion (and SEO) losing at a poker game when he can choose his own cards
6. The view on the beach
5. the “Quick and Polite” service you get at the beach restaurant after waking up at 1 PM the waitress and the kitchen chef which kept us from food poisoning
4. the “excellent” internet connectivity at the hotel which drove us not to read emails at all and rest
3. The fancy cars on the parkway that you will never be able to afford but are inspiring you to work harder
2. the food EVERYWHERE
1. the latest knowledge and trade secrets exchange done at 3 AM after 9 Jacks at the bar !

Thank you EVERYONE who made this happen!

This blog is about SEM, if you have no clue what SEM is, you are in the WRONG place!
if you do know what SEM is then I will mainly discuss Organic SEO - not the type of Organic SEO mother nature grew and raised in the SERPs by gaining links and authority status over time, but the kind of sites that suddenly pop up as top-ranked sites from no-where, those sites that are using the special nitty-gritty techniques to raise up and roll the SERPS for specific terms.
I will not finger pointing anyone’s site, but will sure give my interpretation to the latest facts, speculations, rumors and industry news that may affect the ability to rank such sites.
Feel free to place comments (no “aggressive link acquisition” here, please) and open up the discussion.
