About this Event
The Melbourne SEO Meetup is back!
We're thrilled to be hosted once again by Sportsbet as we welcome Nick Smith to the stage to deep dive internal links and the tactics that most SEOs misunderstand.
Hot off his keynote at Google Search Central Sydney, we're pleased to welcome Nick Smith as our keynote speaker. Nick is the Founder of Link Stacks and the SEO Manager at Brand Collective, where he oversees the organic growth strategy for a massive portfolio of iconic retail brands, including Superdry, Volley, Hush Puppies, Clarks and more. His experience managing SEO for high volume e-commerce sites gives him a unique perspective on driving performance at scale. Internal linking is a critical SEO lever because it establishes your site’s information hierarchy and allows you to distribute authority to your most important pages. A strategic internal structure helps search engines discover new content and understand the relationship between different topics, ensuring your high value pages receive the visibility they deserve. Nick shares his research and insights how this looks in practicality.
Get ready for expert insights, thought-provoking discussion, networking, and of course, tasty food and drinks – all on the house.
Don't forget to RSVP and secure your spot for this essential session! We need to close bookings the morning of the event (7am) as we need to share final numbers with Sportsbet security team to allow seamless entry to their premises out of office hours. Please be mindful, ONE TICKET PER PERSON so your name can be secured entry and a seat.
