Tomorrow I’m travelling up to Leeds to speak at the Think Visibility conference on Saturday.
I love the name of the event as it encompasses much of what businesses fail to do much of the time.

At a conference on social media before Christmas, one of the presenters suggested PPC wasn’t relevant to brand reputation management as “nobody clicks on the ads”.
It was a plainly wrong assumption given Google’s whole business model is based on them, and look how much money they have in the bank!
Lovely post from Jason Falls – aka Social Media Explorer – who gives some excellent advice for all you doubting Thomas’s who want hard ROI numbers for your social media efforts.

A couple of weeks ago The Search Works asked me to kick off their client summit – The Search Sessions – at the fabulous Vinopolis by the river in London.
Honoured as I was, I thought it both polite and in my interest to stay on for the rest of the day and hear the other speakers. Very often I learn a great deal from being at these kind of affairs as I pick up nuggets of information or different points of view that are both thought provoking and provide interesting content for this blog and articles I write elsewhere.
I’m off to Seattle tonight and then San Jose for the 10th Anniversary Search Engine Strategies conference on Sunday.
Looking forward to catching up on all the latest news and views on the search industry at what is billed as the biggest search marketing conference ever.

In a series called Minimising Risk, he offers tips to businesses on how to analyse the market and be more imaginative when promoting themselves.
Jon Beeston from Efficient Frontier has discovered the Google may be planning to offer advertisers a Cost-Per-Acquisition model to gain leads from people searching for financial products…
On his blog Jon was wily enough to get some screenshots of what's obviously a test across a small percentage of Google's traffic.
There are two "summits" going on this week in London that you should consider attending…
The eMetrics Marketing Optimisation Summit will be kicking off from 20-21st in Russell Square. If you enjoyed my posts from San Francisco then you'll know I've been totally absorbed by this way of looking at business metrics and web analytics.
