This is the most successful SEO Meetup in the United States because we concentrate on actionable advice. This Meetup IS NOT about tricks to fake out the search engines or how to make quick money online via Google.

Raleigh's SEO meetup IS about getting realistic and informational advice on what works with the search engines. Show up once a month to find better ways to tune your site, get more distance from your marketing efforts, write good web content. Take the mystery out of what Google has to say about what works, learn about social networking and how it can benefit your site.

We want to help you build really great websites that rank at the top of the search results. We also want to sit down as neighbors and share some success stories, some advice on what didn't work and do some good old fashioned networking!

At this meetup you'll get info that can help almost everyone. Total beginners feel overwhelmed the first time, but keep coming back, it will make sense. Those with some experience under their belt can count on a couple nuggets being unearthed that they may have missed. We always provide good takeaway resources so you can go home and use the information on your own website(s).

If you want to really join the family, hang out with us for the after-party where long term relationships and job offers have been plentiful lately.

We now have a Google+ page to host our monthly Google Hangouts on Air. Please connect with us there if you would like to watch the stream.

Rank on!
