As the search industry continues to reinvent itself at breakneck speed, marketers can make sense of it all at SES, which is hosted by Incisive Media (FTSE: INM). The recent sale of YouTube, click fraud settlements, and the rise in video search and podcasting are topics from the constantly evolving world of Web search to be aired at the premier search industry event.

Chaired and programmed by recognized search authority Danny Sullivan, SES Chicago offers a forum in which novice and experienced search marketers can learn both by networking with colleagues and by listening to expert search engine marketers and the search engines themselves.

SES Chicago ‘06 promises to be the largest SES Chicago ever with an increase of approximately 75 percent in fully paid attendees compared to the 2005 event.

The conference, part of the Search Engine Strategies premier global series, features over 50 sessions and panels offering up-to-the-minute advice on the search industry and search engine-related promotion.
