Testimonials
What did past ISS attendees think of the event?
SEOs and online marketing specialists in general who are working with international websites or for online companies thinking about going international will definitely benefit from attending ISS. Before my first ISS, I had always thought I could just learn everything on my own about global online marketing topics such as International SEO just by doing online research and experimenting, but honestly nothing beats the efficiency of attending a conference like ISS where you can share your experiences and quickly gain a treasure trove of learnings and best practices from other international marketers.
I very much enjoyed the ISS! Actually talking to people who know what you’re talking about when you mention hreflang-tags and geotargeting was great. There was a sense of mutual interests that you don’t often come across in your daily work.
I came to the International Search Summit with an international SEO problem. I left with a solution.
