What Is The News & Editorial SEO Summit?
Even though there are many SEO communities and summits, there hasn’t been an event dedicated to news publishers or SEO professionals who work with news sites.
“For many years, I reached out to so many event organizers and big conferences for SEO, and I pitched the idea that news SEO is a big branch of SEO,” Shehata reveals.
“Unfortunately, no one was interested, or maybe it was not the right fit for them. So I decided to create NESS (News & Editorial SEO Summit) myself. I reached out to Barry Adams and I said ‘Hey, you want to be part of this?’ – he said yes without hesitation.”
Visibility in Google’s ecosystem is a crucial source of readers for all online publishers, and information about how to maximize this can be hard to find.
The News and Editorial SEO Summit (NESS) is here to address the unique challenges that the news industry faces regarding SEO.
“Last year, we got almost 800 people from 56 countries,” says Shehata.
“I knew news SEO was big, but I didn’t know it was that big in all these countries. I get a chance to see how different countries are doing news SEO – you learn a lot from meeting and talking with other news SEOs.”
This third annual, live online event will provide expert insights, direction, and priceless networking opportunities with the best minds in publishing and SEO.
From Google News to Discover, from Top Stories to news apps, you will learn what it takes to grow your presence in all organic locations where news is shown.
The conference expands beyond 2 days into a NEWS SEO slack community where 1000+ members help each other and discuss the latest SEO updates.
