In the world of web marketing there are many events, some historical and that have lasted for several years now, and others that are born and die in a short time. Given the high number of proposals, it could be difficult to choose the right event for a not very experienced person.
On this page I would like to collect the most important SEO and PPC events in which we Italians can participate, so as to have a reminder (especially useful to me) of the situations to monitor and to possibly participate in.
Those who follow this blog know that I undertake to participate as a speaker at at least one event a year, then I participate as a normal user in several other events because I have always thought that curiosity is the spark that keeps my passion for this job alight and I hope never wear out. I also believe that the comparison with other professionals is too precious an opportunity not to exploit it.
Curiosity, passion and networking are therefore the reasons that more than others motivate me to buy tickets right and left to attend these meetings of NERD colleagues and friends.
What events do I recommend? Which ones should you participate in?
Below I list some (few) events that I personally always keep an eye on when I have time to dedicate to these precious occasions.
Search Marketing Connect
The old ConvegnoGT saw the first edition in 2013 and is an event focused on SEO. The speakers, established professionals and SEO consultants, present technical interventions and practical cases. I think it is the best event of the lot from a training point of view.

Web Marketing Festival
This event is currently the largest in Italy both in terms of turnout and number of speakers. Given the great variety of topics covered in 3 days, I cannot tag it as a properly SEO event. The #WMF indeed offers many thematic itineraries but the SEO room is always the largest, the most followed and the most popular.

One of the most advanced SEO training moments on the Italian scene with the best professionals who transmit their experience in a day full of interventions. Moments of sharing and discussion mixed with real practical and operational activities ranging between the more technical themes of search engine optimization.
