Welcome to **SEMantics: Community meet-up for digital marketers**! Join us at **Tempest - Brighton** for a fun and informative gathering of digital marketing enthusiasts.

After five successful events so far, SEMantics is coming back with brand new exciting talks and networking opportunities.

🗣 Talks
🍻 Food & Drink
👋 Chit-chat
❌ No sales pitches

Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, this event is perfect for networking, sharing tips, and learning from each other. Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals in the industry. See you there!

**What topics to expect:**
✅ SEO
✅ PPC
✅ Paid Social
✅ Analytics
✅ ... and all things digital marketing (AI, UX, CRO, new tools and more!)

Past sessions have explored everything from SEO growth strategies and effective keyword research, to psychology-led SEM techniques and the evolution of Performance Max campaigns. Speakers have shared insights into AI’s role in marketing, the future of cookieless tracking, and how to leverage historical data for competitive advantage. We’ve also tackled tactical tips like avoiding common Google Ads pitfalls and choosing between bespoke or off-the-shelf WordPress solutions.
Whether you’re into paid media, analytics, tech, or strategy - SEMantics is all about learning something new or expanding on your existing skills with real life examples and case studies.

**Why people love SEMantics:**

'Both speakers were very good at clearly explaining their presentations. It was great that one presentation was more for beginners and one was for slightly more advanced topic.'

'The event was great, everyone was friendly and I got to meet a few new people and I’d recommend it to anyone interested in digital marketing.'

'I thought as someone who doesn’t know much about digital marketing the talks were still understandable. Both speakers were engaging and conveyed their message in an effective manner.'

**Agenda:**
18:00 - Arrival & FREE drink
18:30-19:00 - 'Colour, cuteness & chaos: the psychology of scroll-stopping content' (by James Armstrong)
19:00-19:30 - 'Personalising Product Categories with Faceted Navigation' (by Naomi Francis-Parker)
19:30-21:00 - Food, drinks & digital marketing chit-chat!
