Our panel of presenters will include:
Duane Forrester – Sr. Product Manager with Bing’s Webmaster Outreach Program.
Susan Moskwa – Google Webmaster Trends Analyst
Our distinguished panel of presenters from the worlds of Search will provide expert insight and analysis of a variety of topics.
Susan will discuss new features in search that have come out recently and the associated tools provided for webmasters (like new sitelinks, rich snippets, instant previews, etc). As Google continues to enhance search results with more information, webmasters can help Google better understand their sites so that we can show users the most relevant information.
Duane will cover the current state of search and social including impacts and ways to leverage these channels effectively. He will highlight how to win in this new space. Duane will also show us a peek into what the future of search looks like.
As always, our presentation will conclude with a Q&A session and hors d'oeuvres will be furnished.
