1) If you are interested in B2B content marketing, there is a local event happening next Wednesday morning. One of the speakers is longtime member Derek Edmond, who is offering a discount to our members. More details here. Contact Derek directly at dedmond29@gmail.com (or @derekedmond on Twitter) about the discount from the $49 list price.

He’ll be discussing “Local SEO Tips for Businesses Target Local Visitors” offering actionable tips and advice about increasing your local search traffic for a bricks & mortar business.

There us still no food sponsor locked down for this event (let us know & get some  links!), but rumor has it that our meetup will actually be held in the amazingly snazztastic 11th floor space that is featured on the front of the MSCambridge web site. Worth checking out for the room alone, and the view of Boston and the Charles River basin at sunset (conveniently scheduled for 7:15pm).

3) Thanks again to our great speaker from last month, Wendy Limauge of SweetiesSweeps. She gave an informative and entertaining talk about successfully making a living by blogging and managing a facebook community around a niche topic.

4) Don’t forget to check out Brian’s Affiliate Marketing meetup side project.

Web Content Marketing Summit on 3/24 is a post from: Boston SEO

We’re finally back with our first event of 2010.  And this month marks the 4 year anniversary of the group, founded in Feb 2006!

2009 was another big year for us. We talked content content, and more content, with some linking strategies, PPC, social media, and analytics thrown in.

We learned about world record cupcakes, and watched a speaker spontaneously combust before our eyes.

And we plan to continue the fun in 2010. Thanks for sticking with us, and making this group so productive.

On Monday 2/1 our featured speaker is Eric Covino of creativesignals.com.
Eric is well known to the members of Aaron Wall’s Seobook.com forum, and will have some interesting insights to share with us.

See you there!

Dave, Brian & Peter
