Higher Ed Experts

The conference was engaging. The pace was good. The presenters actually use the tools they were talking about, allowing them to provide real higher ed examples.

Very exciting and engaging webinar – makes me want to live in the world of social all the time! Hoping to present some day!

This was a great introduction to the principles and practices of SEO, through the lens of higher education. I came away with a strong foundation for how to evaluate and improve our website’s SEO, and can now evaluate the SEO of our competitors through a variety of online tools. I’m also better prepared to optimize our cost-per-click advertising campaigns through A/B testing. I can’t wait to talk to my supervisor and ad agency about what I’ve learned, and create a plan for implementation!

Within the first two weeks of this course, I was able to present our director of Transfer and Graduate Admissions and our dean of the School of Nursing with information showing how we could significantly increase the visibility of one of our online nursing programs by slightly tweaking how we referred to the program on our website. The information I was able to provide was so compelling that everyone involved agreed to officially CHANGE the name of the program to take advantage of the search engine optimization improvements I was suggesting.
