I'm pleased and excited to inform you all that Rand is sending me to England for 18 days to participate in Ammon Johns' SEO Intern Training Program. I'll be leaving October 31st and will arrive in London on November 1st. After five days of sightseeing (including celebrating Bonfire Night on November 5th) I'll hop on a train to Worthing where my training montage (mon-tage!) with Ammon will begin. According to the training's description on Fresh Egg I'll be learning:
Search psychology
Site analysis
Effective meta data
Copy and content
Link strategy
SEM business and account management
Project immersion
Expect blogging from England and an article detailing my experience with Ammon. I'll also most likely take a train over to Chitterne during the weekend and say howdy to our favorite SEO guru.
Alas since I'll be busy snatching marbles out of Ammon's outstretched hand and tracking search engine spiders while blindfolded and balancing buckets of water on my shoulders I'll be missing PubCon in Vegas. If you're at PubCon please buy a beer for Rand (you'll get 5 points!) Jeff or Jane in my absence :)
