BlitzLocal and SEOMoz address Singapore search marketing professionals meeting
Stop was part of SEOMoz and BlitzLocal's spring conference tour
About two dozen search marketing professionals got the chance to meet with industry leaders from BlitzLocal and SEOMoz in Singapore in late April.
Gillian Muessig of SEOMoz presented recent findings on factors influencing search rankings. Even though external linking factors continue to have the greatest influence, social factors such as Facebook are showing an upward trend.
The convergence of social, mobile and local search technologies, also known as the "real-time web," is starting to shift the search landscape in significant ways, presenters Muessig and Dennis Yu counseled.
