Recap of BrightonSEO September 2018 – The Authoritas Live Stream

A couple of weeks ago, we went down to BrightonSEO and as per usual had a great time! We enjoyed a very pleasant atmosphere, a warm and professionally organised day, but above all we enjoyed the extremely thought-provoking talks!

We were lucky to be able to meet many of you on the day, as well as having many more join us on our Live Stream. For those of you who couldn’t make it on the day or missed the stream, we prepared a small playlist on our YouTube channel with every talk from the main auditorium for you to catch up! For your ease we have cut and uploaded each of the talks separately, so you can focus in on the content you want.

You don’t know which talk you might be interested in? You don’t have enough time to watch all these talks? Don’t worry, we’ve prepared a quick summary for each of the talks we recorded in the main auditorium so that you can choose which talk you want to watch!
