Agenda

I'm happy to welcome Ian Lurie, President of Portent Interactive and author of ]Conversation Marketing and contributing author to ?ie=UTF8&tag=sewmyheadonco-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=[masked]]Web Marketing All-in-One Desk Reference for Dummies, who'll be giving a presentation entitled:

Design and SEO: Friends Forever
No, really. If you're a designer, you hold the keys to the SEO castle. AND you can live in harmony with your SEO counterpart.

Hear Ian Lurie describe case studies of good (and bad) SEO/designer interactions, and explain how both sides can work together to crush the competition.

I'll be editing the video that Rich shot. I'm pretty booked the rest of this week so probably won't get started until next week. I'll keep Eric posted as to my progress and he'll let you know when it's available. :)s
