October Meeting

This month we will be taking a cue from Michael Jordan, we're returning to SEO Essentials.

“You can practice shooting eight hours a day, but if your technique is wrong, then all you become is very good at shooting the wrong way. Get the fundamentals down and the level of everything you do will rise.” - Michael Jordan

Bob Misita, of LeadsNearby, will be walking us through the fundamentals of SEO so we can all rise through the SERPs.

If you haven't already, now is the time to RSVP for the meeting this month.

SEO Jobs

This month I have two places to send you on your SEO job hunt.

1. Consultwebs has several SEO job openings on their site right now.
2. As always, everyone is invited to post their job openings on the Raleigh SEO Meetup message board - and there are a few new jobs posted there as well.

November Meeting

For anyone that's interested in learning from Rand Fishkin, he will be speaking at our November meeting. This is a great way to end the year for the Raleigh SEO Meetup and we're making a couple of adjustments for this event.

Expecting a large crowd, we will be moving the meeting to The Frontier RTP. Additionally, there will be a limit on the number of people that can attend this event.

We will begin promoting the event beyond the Raleigh SEO Meetup next week. If you want to be there, RSVP now - so you don't find yourself on the wait list.
