Today I was checking out my friendfeed and noticed @mattcutts feed talking about an event; Google's Webmaster Tricks and Treats webinar

This event was a great way to ask Google questions about ranking your websites. As a search marketing specialist I watch SEO trends and consult with other specialist on tactics. What one person says works another person says doesn't work. At times the industry can be confusing. This event allowed webmasters to submit questions to the Google Search team through Google Moderator. The Google Moderator was open a few days before the event, so people could submit questions and other users could rate the questions. The questions with the highest ratings were at the top and had a better chance of being answered. When the event happened today, everyone entered a WebEx session to view presentations and chat with Googlers and other webmasters. After the presentations the Google Moderator was used to answer additional questions. John Mueller's presentation was my favorite because it focused on shedding light on myths regarding the search engine optimization industry. Check out my event notes and thoughts....
