The Charlotte SEO Meetup had another nice meeting last night.  This group has grown to over 90 members already and we are having a great time getting to know each other.

For several months the group met monthly and only about 5–10 people actually got together.  But last month we had over 20 that met at Panera Bread.

Last night we had 21 attend and the program was a little more structured.  Specifically, Keith opened with some basic comments and general housekeeping.  Then, I discussed the topic “LINKING – 10 Ideas every site owner can use”

I used a really cool PowerPoint program that I put together earlier in the day which had some unique images to express some basic concepts that I went into in more depth verbally.

I actually handled the PowerPoint in about 30 minutes or less.  We then opened it up for discussion.  Some new ideas came out and we even put one member’s site up and discussed how he specifically could get links.

We then broke and let everyone chat.  Some left immediately, but others stayed for an extra hour or more.  It was a good time.  There were some very positive comments left on the meetup page.  Click here and you can see the comments of others on the right side column.

Next meeting is on Thursday, June 5, 2008 and we’ll be doing site reviews.

Anyone can join the Charlotte SEO meetup for free.

    Sounds like a success! How about sharing the PowerPoint Corey?? Seems like people enjoyed the whole occasion, perhaps this could be the start of Charlotte Pub-Con?
