Why most international digital PR campaigns are also missed opportunities
David White - Connective3
Over the past two years demand for PR and digital PR services has erupted, with recent stats from the Content Marketing Institute reporting that 46% of businesses want to increase their content creation spending in 2022. With demand at an all-time high we are seeing more and more PR campaigns being produced. This may all sound positive, but most PR campaigns are currently working in silo’s, missing out collaborations with other marketing disciplines such as paid, content and SEO. Most of the PR campaigns we see being produced are missing out on delivering more results across more channels by simply not including them in their campaign execution. When a campaign includes, social media or content the results can increase tenfold, so why do people choose to not include these in their campaign plans?
In this presentation, David will explain how to easily make your digital PR campaigns work across more channels and detail the results this can deliver. The presentation will offer advice and key takeaways which can help the audience better the results their PR produces by including more channels and disciplines.
Audience marketing: The key to paid strategy success
Daiana Damacus - Webcertain
Paid advertising, whether on social media, on search engines, or in 3rd party content, is a very important part of any company’s digital marketing strategy. However, not all paid campaigns hit their mark and many marketers struggle to prove their benefits. In order to improve the ROI for paid tactics, Daiana thinks it’s necessary to take a few steps back all the way to the start line. Her session will explain why spending time on defining your target audience will end up saving you costs and shorten the route to conversion. She’ll also explore how to create a clear picture of your customers’ online journey before you click Launch on those paid campaigns.
Convert more high-quality leads from your PPC campaigns: A deep dive into the user journey
Veronika Holler - CompuGroup Medical
In order to create effective, successful PPC campaigns, it is important to analyse the user journey in detail. Users who click on an ad have different search intentions than users who find their way to the website via organic search. These intentions also differ from country to country in terms of cultural differences, language, region and different search behaviour. So, how do we get the maximum out of our PPC campaigns and support our organic rankings? By analysing different user journeys in detail and giving the user what they are looking for - sound difficult? In this session, Veronika will show you how to analyse user journeys and optimise PPC campaigns worldwide with this information - to get more high-quality leads for less money.

Backlink auditing for international expansion (when you don't speak the language)
Sophie Gibson - StudioHawk
Many SEOs can have a difficult time auditing a backlink profile when working with global websites that work across multiple international markets, especially as many SEOs will not necessarily speak the language and/or understand the subtle differences of the link acquisition process in all the multiple countries that the business operates in.
It is important to avoid missing out on backlink opportunities that can be gathered for every ccTLD as the competition is likely to be different, and not doing so can stagnate the strength of the ccTLD domains if only one of the domains has a link building focus.
This talk will help make auditing the backlink profile of international websites easier and can also aid in international expansion if you can audit the competition in other markets. Doing this will help you find opportunities that are otherwise missed if you do not speak the other language(s). The talk will also go through a step-by-step process of getting the information, analysing it and developing insights to strengthen your international SEO link strategy.

From Baidu to Bing: The paid search platforms you need to get ahead globally
Danielle Woods - Webcertain
Google remains the dominant search engine globally, but it is far from the only option. In many markets, complementing Google PPC activity with paid search campaigns on other platforms, such as Yahoo, Bing and Naver can help brands to maximise their exposure and reach new audiences. In other markets, such as China, Google is unavailable, making it imperative to market on local platforms, such as Baidu.
This talk will discuss platforms - beyond Google - which international marketers need to know about and will provide plenty of useful hints and tips to help you maximise your activity - whether you are opening an account, just getting started, or a seasoned advertiser on these channels. Whether you are looking to discover new paid search channels, or boost your activity, this talk will help you take your international marketing to the next level.

As search marketers, we are always focused on our main "target keyword" we can work on. We pay less attention to these low search volume search terms that often can be less competitive. Liraz will discuss search volume vs. search intent and how to identify low search opportunities. She will also showcase an international case study, showing how targeting 0-10 search volume keywords helped a tech brand grow beyond all expectations.
Working with topic clusters in on-page SEO: Elevate your performance
Zanna Spink - Webcertain
To convince Google that your webpage is the most authoritative and relevant to a certain search query, you really need to showcase your expertise, offering comprehensive and integral content.

Why cultural relevancy is key to success in international SEO
Veruska Anconitano - SurveyMonkey/Momentive
Choosing the best SEO metrics for your international expansion is not easy. Just because SEOs have only just considered traffic as a metric for success, this does not mean it is the best one when it comes to tackling multiple languages. Doing and measuring international SEO in 2022 (and beyond) is, in fact, more than just checking the ranking and the traffic, and it is more about cultural relevancy.
TikTok usage has exploded worldwide and it’s no longer a platform that’s just for the kids.

He’ll cover the markets where TikTok is hot, and where it’s not, the ad options on offer and how to adapt your approach depending on the audience you’re trying to reach. He’ll also share examples of successful campaigns and the tips you need to replicate them for your own business or clients.
