SEO + User Experience: Like Peanut Butter & Chocolate

4

I spoke on an SEO panel at the 2011 Seattle Interactive Conference. The title of our session was “SEO & User Experience: Like Peanut Butter & Chocolate”. I was asked to relate a specific story about how we combined SEO practices with improvements in user experience to get results. So I presented a case study on work we did last year for our client NeighborhoodNotes.com to reduce the number of links on pages to improve both the user experience and gain search results.

Seattle Interactive published a video of the session. So now you can watch my presentation in real live moving pictures. The slide deck is below as well.
