Product Research at Webmaster World - New Orleans


Last week went by so fast. Some of it was blurry. But what I was able to remember, was that blogs are very effective in internet marketing. So this is my first post. Hurray!

I had another opportunity to attend the
Webmaster World Search Conference in New Orleans, LA. This was the 3rd time that I was able to attend this semi-annual event. This place has a wealth of information regarding all aspects of driving traffic to your web site.

Most of the attendees were also in the search marketing business so there was not a lot of opportunity for me to market my business. Rather, it was a place to gather information directly from product specialists at
Google, Yahoo, and MSN. They all highlighted their search products and gave inside tips on getting relevant traffic to your web site.

Besides the regular PPC topic sessions like , "PPC Keyword Selection and Landing Page Optimization", the more interesting lectures for me were "Shopping Search - Getting Listed, Getting Traffic", "RSS Feeds and Pod Casting", and "Linking on a Dime".
