The Syndicate is coming...



It's official! The Student Search Engine Optimization Syndicate is having it's first meetings next week. It will be held on the University of Arizona campus in room 308 of the psychology building. There will be two introductory meetings to accommodate everyone's schedules. The first will be on Friday, March 2 from 5:30pm to 6:30pm. The second will be Wednesday, March 7 from 5:30pm to 6:30pm. To clarify, these are both introductory meetings so there's no need to go to both (unless you are super stoked about SEO!!). Due to this being an introductory meeting, we will not be going too in depth about the complicated practice of SEO, instead we will be focusing on the structure of the club and the roles of it's members. If you are looking for a way to get involved on campus or to gain a great resume builder, then definitely stop by at the meeting that works best for you next week! Members of the Search Engine Optimization Syndicate this semester will influence the operations for years to come. Critical components that comprise the architecture of SEO Club's operations will be molded by the collective input from its founding members. If you are looking to have an even larger impact on campus then consider running for an officer position at the Student SEO Syndicate. Officers will be expected to contribute more to the club than a standard member but rest assured, all efforts made towards the furthering of SEO club in it's early stages will see an exponential return on investment in years to come. I encourage anyone willing to help out a few hours each week to run for a position. Even if you aren't sure what the acronym, SEO, stands for, if you have a strong drive and want to be at the core of the club's operations, RUN FOR AN OFFICER POSITION! You will be brought to speed on the role your position plays in The Syndicate and any specialized abilities you may need to understand to be a capable officer.  I understand not everyone is an expert at this, but anyone with leadership skills is encouraged to run for a position.
We will also cover two important aspects of the club functionality that operate almost completely independent of each other. The first is the educational side. This is an avenue for members who would like to  learn how search engine optimization works and also for experienced members to share their knowledge. The second is the professional side, where members will team up to practice and experiment with SEO on businesses' customer websites and our members' own websites.

 Here is a general list of topics for the first meeting:
1.     What is SEO?
2.     How will we learn to practice SEO?
3.     How will we be implementing SEO in a professional environment?
4.     Topics of discussion for upcoming guest lectures (Microsoft, Intel, Apple, Google, and local SEOs)
5.     Club structure
6.     Officer positions and elections

I will also post the power point from the meeting on the Student SEO Syndicate Homepage if you can't make either of the meetings. This will be an important meeting if you plan to run for an officer position! Feel free to contact me for any reason: will@sseosyndicate.com. I look forward to seeing you soon!
