Pubcon Next Week: Sessions, Parties, Werewolf Games and More

SEO digest

Next Tuesday, Pubcon Las Vegas 2008 kicks off, and we're sending a big cadre of mozzers to the show. For the first time ever, SEOmoz will have a booth at Pubcon, so please stop by, check out Linkscape, Trifecta and our other PRO tools and get a special Pubcon show discount on SEOmoz PRO membership. Mozzers in attendance will include:

• Rebecca Kelley
• Jane Copland
• Danny Dover
• Ben Hendrickson
• Gillian Muessig
• That one guy with the beard

We've also got a special offer - that's good for only the next 36 hours - a 20% discount off Pubcon's standard pricing (make sure to go all the way through the checkout process to see the discount), saving you $180 on a full pass. Use sm-12220 before midnight Wednesday, November 5 on the register page to qualify.

And, if you're attending, don't miss SEOmoz's 2nd annual Search Spam / Werewolf party on Wednesday night, November 11th, from 7-10pm. If you attend you'll get your very own Werewolf deck. There's only 144 tickets available (and shrinking), so email Gillian _at_ SEOmoz.org to get registered on the guest list.

For parties on the other 4 nights of the conference, make sure you follow @josephmorin on Twitter to get daily/nightly updates on where to go.

And, oh yeah, Pubcon also has great sessions to learn SEO/SEM/SMO/etc :-) I'm particularly looking forward to:

• Being an Effective SEO Within Your Organization on Monday at 11:30am (I think this is a really important topic that sometimes gets under-served)
• Is Social Media & Search a Love Story or a War Story on Monday at 2:50pm (Fight, fight, fight!)
• Discover Techniques Used by Enterprise-Level SEOs on Monday at 4:10pm (Since most of our consulting work these days is for big brands, this really caught my eye)
• Competitive Intelligence: Know Thy Competitor Well on Tuesday at 11:30am (I love competitive intel - in case you couldn't tell from all the competitive focused tools we build here)
• Interactive Site Reviews: Focus on Links on Tuesday at 2:50pm (Rebecca and Rae are both on the panel, so it's gotta be good)
• Five Bloggers and a Microphone on Tuesday at 4:10pm (I was on this panel last year, and it was tons of fun)
• Linkfluence: How to Buy Links with Maximum Juice and Minimum Risk on Wednesday at 11:30am (Crossing my fingers that the search reps don't attend this one)
• Top Secret Tools of the Trade on Wednesday at 1:30pm (Anyone who knows me knows I love tools)
• Community Hacking - 96 Baiting Strategies You Can Employ on Wednesday at 2:50pm (I just want to see them try to describe 96 tactics in 75 minutes)

The agenda is incredibly diverse and there's a large number of concurrent sessions.

Please stop by the SEOmoz booth, or catch us in the halls, pubs, restaurants and casinos after hours. Hope to see you all there!
