SEO & Social Media for Photographers Talk
Wow! I had a great time at the Austin PUG this week, but what a week it was.
I arrived home after a long night talking SEO and Social Media at the Austin PUG only to pack for my trip to speak at the Raleigh North Carolina PUG the next day. It was worth it though. The Austin crowd was very receptive and I had a great time talking with everyone. We had quite a turnout. Since this is the Pictage User Group that I go to on a regular basis, I knew most of the people that were there, but there were some new faces. I must say, the Austin folks are a savvy bunch and we wound up having an extended interactive session where ideas were bounced around.
Eric Hegwer gave a studio spotlight before I spoke and talked about his beginnings as a professional photographer. Eric moved to Austin from Silicon Valley where he was a biochemist during the day while shooting and assisting pro wedding photographers in the Bay Area on the weekends. I thought it was especially interesting that Eric now shoots mostly film with his trusty Leica M kit.
A special thanks to SuziQ, (a.k.a. The Q) of Qweddings for being such a rock star PUG leader & den mother, and for her general awesomeness.
Here are some of the great comments I received after the SEO talk:
The material covered was essential for working professionals and crucial for optimization. The information was delivered in a language I could understand. I would seriously consider taking an advanced workshop.
Francis Cruzada
I can’t thank you enough for being of service to the group by sharing so much of your (surely hard-earned) experience. Your wheels to the ground introduction (for those of us that have been aware but foreign) to these fundamentals of success in this web based business world was empowering to say the least. I feel confident that I’m catching up to what is certain to only increase as the future of doing business for companies small and large.
Denise Prince
Thank you for the incredible information you shared with us at last nights PUG meeting. I rushed home and passed on the information to my friends, and I am excited to get started. I will be using foliomojo FOR SURE!

Wade is the master of SEO! I wish that I’d known two years ago what I know now because it’s not about what you know, it’s about when you know it. YES WE CAN
Edward Pierce
Everything we learned in this presentation was extremely helpful. I was unaware of how many fine details come into play in terms of ranking. I definitely look forward to learning more about how I can better prepare my site and marketing for the placement I aspire to reach. Thanks Wade, you are awesome!
Joe Anna Hayden
At first I was skeptical that I’d learn anything from Wade’s workshop – I’ve got a good search ranking for a lot of different keywords and I pop up pretty high on most searches. But everything I’ve learned has been through alternative sources – websites, blogs, and podcasts. Never before had I heard the techniques from anyone in person. Wade reassured me that the steps I was doing were the correct things to do, and even gave me some tips on things not to do. Thanks!
