Search Engine 101 Workshop, Talk or Seminar

I just got a spam in my Inbox of a local workshop, talk or seminar going down in Kuala Lumpur on the topic Search Engine 101. The event only might interest me in what the speaker has to say in the second half after lunch. Yup, it’s going to be a whole day affair for anyone willing to pay RM499-RM599 per person.

The speaker is Ms Meng who probably is working with a local company called Webflexx. According to the spammed newsletter, she’s been very involved in the web scene and has been managing lots of public listed companies and etc and other marketing jargon you’ll read on 1-page ‘buy this now’ type of websites.

These are the topics that willbe touched on in the search engine 101 course.

• What is a search-engine? (Which one is better?)
• How does a search engine works?
• What does a search engine look for when it visit your website?
• The difference:-
  - spider
  - crawler
  - robot
  - bot
• Does meta-tag still work anymore?
• How to “submit” to the search engines
• Things to look out for
• What is the “Google-Dance” all about?
• FAQ
• Examples of No1 ranking pages and their analysis
• KILLER Keywords to use
• Possible marketing techniques
• Purchase and marketing of keywords
• What Google use to rank your website?
• Search Engine Optimisation
• SEO to get that No1 ranking
• Managing your website
• modifying your index page
• flash and animated gifs: is it necessary?
• Blogesphera
• What is a “blog”?
• Using a blog to improve your ranking
• Using a blog to reach out to your customers
• FAQ

I can understand not everyone has the time to learn about all of this online like some of us. But I keep wondering what’s the cost breakdown of hosting a seminar like this. And I think it’s hosted somewhere or in the Webflexx office at Bukit Damansara. Included is also lunch and tea for those attending.

I’d really like to attend one of these seminars without paying just so I can review the effectiveness of it. There’ll be weaknesses but at least they’ll have an honest attendees point of view being shared with other who’re still pondering if the investment is worth it.

So anyone willing to offer me a free seat in the search engine 101 workshop?
