This year was the 20th edition of the Brighton SEO conference. We thought this was the best opportunity to talk to its organizer and creator, Kelvin Newman. From a local event, the conference has grown into a major industry event attracting thousands of people from all over the world every year, including excellent speakers such as Rand Fishkin. What is the secret to a successful event on this scale? Play Video Who was the Brighton SEO conference for? Artur Wojczal, visible: I am Artur Wojczal from the visible agency. I would like to introduce you to Kelvin Newman, the creator of one of the largest SEO conferences. 3.5 thousand… Kelvin Newman, Brighton SEO: Almost 4 thousand AW: 4 thousand participants KN: From 50 different countries AW: Almost 100 speakers and a great location - Brighton by the sea. What is the future of conferences, what are your dreams for Brighton SEO? KN: Brighton SEO has a pretty simple mission. We want to help people do their job a little better, people who work in the SEO industry.
We are looking for ways to make it as easy as WhatsApp Number List possible for them. For us, this probably means preparing content within various thematic paths and organizing accompanying events. Like yesterday. The event was called "Measurements" and concerned website analytics and conversion optimization. Which is close in topic to SEO, but not a typical SEO topic. This is a chance to help people do their jobs better. Providing specific content for a group of recipients - that's what we want to do. Top speakers at Brighton SEO AW: Kelvin, who has been your favorite speaker over the years? It's been 10 years, right? Okay, three favorite speakers! The ones you remember the most. KN: I think that the main stage performances are always the most memorable. So a speech by David Trott, who has appeared with us several times before. I'm a big fan of his. People like Greg Gifford, who comes back every year because he does a great job. What we like most is bringing in people who have never spoken before or haven't had the opportunity to speak at such a large event. That's actually my goal, to find new people who have never spoken before.
There is a speaker, Eleni. She has appeared twice at Brighton SEO. She had her first ever performance with us, on the main stage of Brighton SEO. It's about giving people a chance to share their knowledge and passion. AW: I have a memory from last year when Rand Fishkin wasn't seeing content on some of his slides. Still, Rand spoke... KN: Yes, surprisingly, this is what I was most afraid of. The irony is that I didn't check the slides because I was sure Rand would check them. None of us did it, but we should have. Situations like this always happen. kelvin newman visible The biggest success of the Brighton SEO conference AW: What are you most proud of? KN: I guess it's because the event is still taking place. This time we have slightly changed the ticket awarding system. Some of our tickets were free and you could apply for them. We had over 6,000 people interested in 2,000 available tickets. This is a source of pride for me. Of course, we have a lot of people at the conference and it's always impressive when we have a large audience, but the fact that apart from these people there are so many people who would also like .
