I have always enjoyed International Search Summit (ISS) run by Webcertain, and have gone to everyone of them in Barcelona plus a couple in London and New York.
Unfortunately due to the current situation, there are no offline events taking place and the Munich, Boston, London plus the one in Barcelona have all been combined to now be online.
BUT it will still be interactive. There will be a range of speakers over two days (afternoon time for those in Europe and morning time for the east coast of the US). There will also be a Q and A with Googler Gary Illyes.
Using Remo (which we have used at Search LDN), you can have one to one conversations with others, joining different virtual tables to meet others in the international search industry.
These are just a few things what you can expect from International Search Summit.
There will also be a great case study session from Gunter Gabriel (Hilti) and two brilliant speakers from the Women in Tech SEO community, Jess Peck and Colleen Harris. I love the Women in Tech SEO group !

Coming from an international background, I have always been interested in search performance across multiple countries.
As Growth Marketer at Authoritas I have been able to study the performance of the SERPs including images, videos, featured snippets and local pack across 11 different countries. I have put together a presentation that highlights some of the main differences as well as how you can implement featured snippets on your own site with out needing to code..

More than 50% of the speakers at this event run their own business and I want Turn Digi to be a platform to support them, as well as for some of those who have not spoken as much before in the online marketing industry.
The event will be live streamed to the “Turn Digi” YouTube channel. The talks will be streamed in 4 different videos, to set up this week.

Health is very important and we have all seem the cancellation and postponement of conferences/events.
However those who are self employed or remote workers who depend on these types of events, cannot afford to wait until the autumn to attend at the rescheduled time.
We are already seeing stock prices plunge with the stock market and to attempt at minimising this down fall of sales and business opportunities, I am creating this free online event, “Turn Digi”.
The online event will be about : “Remote working, mental health and good well being as well as inaccessibility – plus practical online marketing tips ” Practical tips will be tips for setting up GTM, setting up Analytics, doing a tech audit, site migration, organising your time and many more.
Here is a brief overview of our line up, starting at 11am BST.
Earlier this year, I started hearing about “imposter syndrome” and to be honest I had not come across it before. It seemed to be coming from more females than males, so I looked it up.
Imposter syndrome is a constant feeling of self doubt and insecurity and a fear of being found out to be a fraud even though that person is a high achiever. This syndrome was identified more than 30 years ago, in 1978 by psychologists Pauline Clance and Suzanne Imes. At first it was thought that this affected only women but in subsequent research it has shown that men are also affected. Due to the biological nature of women, they are more susceptible because they produce less testosterone which is the confidence hormone. What I was surprised to read was a study by Natwest that 60% of women put off starting a business due to imposter syndrome. This is terrible. One more hurdle for females to overcome.
I have been remote working off and on since 2011. I had wanted to remote work before then but I did not know what it meant.
When we were younger my dad’s job meant we moved around the world, living in 6 different countries by the time I was 13. We were lucky to experience so much at such a young age as well as visiting many other countries and cities near to where we were living. However some places I lived, I really loved and did not want to leave. Therefore as a 10 year old, I vowed to work where ever I wanted in the world. Little did I know about digital marketing or online businesses.
Since going back to working full time remote in 2015, I have a lot of tips on what we should do to help you be as productive as possible. I try and take part in online events as much as possible, Alexandra hosts her Digital Olympus that was purely online and branched out to offline as well, there was even a global work from home day last year too put together by Remote How.
Now with many people working from home due to the coronavirus, I wanted to share these tips:
I went to IKEA to get my desk and chair, the chair was 159 Euros but it is the best chair I have had. Plus I also bought a foot stool. If you cannot find a footstool, get a small box or small step ladder to use under your desk
Working from home is not for everyone. However, during this coronavirus it is recommended everyone stays at home and avoids going out, I recently read about Florian Reifschneider who set up this StayTheF**kAtHome campaign to encourage people to stay at home. Avoid large crowds, do not take the metro or public transport and stay safe.
