UWS at SMX Local Mobile

search marketing expoRecently, Utah Web Services had the opportunity to represent themselves at the Search Marketing Expo - Local Mobile (LoMo) conference on October 1st and 2nd in Denver, Colorado. The conference was divided into two tracks each day. The tracks we attended were the Local and Mobile Search tracks.

The first day was kicked off by a Keynote Address by Michael T. Jones, the Chief Technologist of Google Earth and Google Maps. Michael’s premise was the power of mobile phones using Google’s services such as Google GPS and Google Maps and local search assistance with personalized SMS. The nice thing about SMS search is that you can search if you don’t want to or can’t make a phone call to search. Which brings up Google’s 411 service. GOOG-411 is an awesome way to locate local locations and service providers from your phone.

There’s way too much to cover all the content of all the sessions but if you want a comprehensive breakdown of all the highlights check out Mike the Internet Guy’s live blogging that he did. The poor guy was typing 100mph at times it seemed. More in depth SMX Local & Mobile coverage is located at Search Engine Land.

We’re the only company that has live session recordings. Check out the first day of SMX on the Local Search track:

  • Due to SMX’s audio/video policy we had to remove the the rest of the session recordings.

To those who haven’t been to a SMX or SES conference before, you learn almost as much from the people outside of the sessions as you do from the actual sessions. Some of these great people were:
