Google Dance returns to SMX West

west-google-dance-2017-v2
This is the Google update all search marketers have been waiting for! We’re thrilled to announce that Google will again host an evening of fun and activities for the SEO and SEM community attending* Search Engine Land’s upcoming Search Marketing Expo & Conference in San Jose, CA.

Last year, during the SMX West event, 500 hundred lucky search marketers were thrilled to attend the first “Google Dance” since 2008 at the Googleplex in Mountain View. Attendees were treated to entertainment, demo stations, food and drinks while networking with Googlers and search industry peers.

From 2002 to 2008, the Google Dance became an annual gathering of search marketers at Google HQ, aptly named after the fluctuations of Google’s search results after an algorithm update. You can learn more about the history of the Google Dance here.

In 2016, Googlers Gary Illyes and Nathan Johns were responsible for bringing back the popular event, much to the delight of SMX West attendees lucky enough to attend. For many search marketers, it was their first visit to the flagship Google campus.

The Google Dance will happen on Wednesday, March 22, from 7:30pm to 11:00pm PT, at the main Google campus. Transportation from the SMX conference venue in San Jose will be provided and begins at 6:30pm, with return shuttle service.

*Attendance is open to the first 500 SMX West full, three-day All Access conference pass holders. (Sorry, one-day All Access, workshop, bootcamp only or EXPO+ pass holders are not eligible to attend the 2017 Google Dance.)
