Paid Search Competitive Analysis

It is part of any essential business plan to understand the particular strengths and weaknesses of the competition.

Frost Prioleau, CEO, Simpl.fi
Steven Golus, General Manager, Go-to-Market, DataXu

These speakers will present an intro to DSPs and ad exchanges, overviews of new display optimization strategies, and give plenty of advice for those already experienced search marketers who would like to take the leap into exchange-traded display.

Search Engine Marketing 101

This intro session will supply attendees with a comprehensive overview of all of the key concepts involved in search engine marketing.
