Ever decided to turn down a family dinner event because you secretly wanted to stay in and optimise your title tags? Or perhaps you’ve gone on a relaxing holiday for a week but couldn’t resist checking in to an Internet Cafe to build some links? Or maybe you’re like me and you like to bring a Keyword Density Checker into drinking games at social occasions – we want to know your most embarrassing SEO stories!

Today’s sessions at day two of SMX London are focused around social media and analytics/conversions. My presentation looked at online reputation, largely from a social media perspective.

I’ve shared the slides from this below:

If anyone’s interested in the online consumer stats, here’s the research from Nielsen. There’s also some great recap posts on the session here:

I’ll try and do an overview post to cover this in more detail too, but if you have any questions please let me know in the comments.

You may have noticed I’ve been busy Twittering away covering the SMX London conference today.

Rand Fishkin‘s SEO takeaway was “it’s ridiculous that we Tweet so much and no one is capturing that data for SEO purposes“. So I thought I’d put mine to good use!

Here’s a recap of the top tips/tweets I picked up during the event so far – always difficult to remember who said what, but in an attempt to credit the best ones Rob Kerry, Mikkel deMib, Richard Fergie, Sam Crocker and Rand Fishkin all feature heavily:

Update: We now have a 15% discount code for the SMX London 2010 event.

I didn’t quite make it to up to my 77 SES London takeaway tips, but overall I felt this was a very useful conference and the audience certainly seemed to appreciate the more advanced approach to the sessions this year.

Update: We now have a 15% discount code for the SMX London 2010 event.

If you’re thinking of attending SMX London 2009, now could be a good time to sign-up. Not only do the prices increase by £100 next week, but you can also get 15% off by using the following discount code: KEGIUK09. This will get you 15% off a 1 / 2 Day or Combo pass for the conference.

So now you can register for a 2-day pass which will cost £671.50 instead of £790 (or £890 after April 10th).

Having recently attended SES London and returning with tons of tips and ideas we feel the conference will certainly be worthwhile and one which we will definitely be attending ourselves.

SMX London 2009 is at New Connaught Rooms, Covent Garden on 18th & 19th May – see you there! :D
