SMBMSP #62 - Search and Social: Inside Google's New "Hummingbird" Algorithm

Friday, January 31, 2014 from 8:00 AM - 10:00 AM
Google's search algorithms are always evolving. They go by the names of penguin, panda, and now hummingbird — each has changed the search results pages and the balance of which types of online experiences earn organic search traffic. What does it mean for social media marketers and how can they take advantage of this new era where Google is better not only at knowing what you want but who on the web can help you best?

Twin Cities search industry vets Josh Braaten and Jeff Sauer will offer insights from two experienced perspectives on the evolution of the search landscape and how social media professionals can capitalize on the changes. At this Social Media Breakfast you'll learn:
  • Succinct and helpful strategies for understanding Google's modern major algorithm changes: Hummingbird, Panda, and Penguin. 
  • How social media plays into Google's algorithms and how to prepare for the future of concepts and entities
  • What are the best tools for measuring social media and social engine marketing overlap and success?
