SEM for SMB Conference Set to Demystify Online Marketing for Small and Medium Businesses
Austin, TX (PRWEB) May 22, 2008 -- The search engine marketing needs of small- and medium-sized businesses will be discussed at an international conference being held in Austin, Texas on July 16th and 17th, 2008. The SEM for SMB conference will create opportunities to stimulate economic growth for a critical segment of the U.S. economy. In prescriptive group and one-on-one sessions with SEO and SEM experts, conference attendees will learn how to make better choices in their online marketing efforts.
The conference originated and was designed based on extensive interviews with owners of small- and medium-sized businesses. Relevant and educational presentations will provide technical and non-technical attendees with marketing strategies and tools that they can apply immediately. Speakers have been specifically selected based on their industry experience. Presentations will not include sales pitches and focus purely on online marketing strategy, terminology and business decision making.
"Small and medium businesses are the fuel of the search-engine economy. Unfortunately, businesses are being preyed upon to invest in search engine marketing. Results aren't always guaranteed and the investment can be significant," says Christopher Justice, co-founder of SEO for SMB. "Search-engine marketing has a measurable affect on the balance sheet, but only if the tools, process and return are understood by all business stakeholders."
The conference will serve the needs of:
? Established SMBs, nonprofits and government organizations looking to improve and grow online
? New businesses that want to learn online marketing strategies and minimize their risks when marketing online
? Professionals who are interested in becoming self-sufficient with search-engine marketing
? Entrepreneurs looking for global and regional visibility through the Internet
Held at the Hilton in downtown Austin, the event will introduce innovative approaches to the traditional conference formula. To make the conference accessible to a larger audience, registration is affordable and meals will be provided. A private, online collaboration system, will also allow attendees to directly communicate with speakers, sponsors and organizers and view videotaped presentations online.
The conference is sponsored by Sparksight, GetPageOne, Spoonbend, Wildwood Interactive and Envision Creative. Additional sponsor announcements are pending and participation from additional speakers and sponsors will remain open until July 1, 2008.

Google Adsense Profits Mixed In With Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing has become one of the most effective ways to advertise online. It is also one of the easiest ways for anyone with a website to make a profit online. Affiliate Marketing is an agreement between a merchant and a website owner. The website owner, or the affiliate, allows the use of their site for the promotion of the merchant's products by linking to the merchant's website. In exchange, the merchant pays a commission to the affiliate on all sales generated by the affiliate. Every time someone clicks on the link on the affiliate website and proceeds to make a purchase, the affiliate gets a commission. The merchant will pay the affiliate only when a customer clicks on the product link and makes a purchase.
