It would be nice to be in attendance at SMX Singapore which is scheduled at October 13 and 14. If there is an SEO event I should be in, this must be it. I think that the popularity of the SMX series in the United States and other locations where search marketing is in its maturation stage should be an indication of its credibility.
Why Singapore and not Hong Kong?
“Following the success of SMX Sydney we felt that the expansion of Search Marketing Expo into the Asia Pacific region was incredibly important. Singapore was the first choice destination for this expansion due the large number of multi-national corporations that have regional headquarters in the city” said Barry Smyth, Director of Search Strategies. “Many of these corporations have been crying out for educationally-focused search marketing conferences for some time now, we feel that the time is right for SMX Singapore” added Smyth.
Search Marketing Expo – SMX Singapore will be held in October 13-14, 2008 at the Suntec Singapore International Convention & Exhibition Centre.

I’ve been to a few SES and Webmaster World conferences, and I have to say attending SMX West this year totally blew all the other past conferences out of the water. From the great organization, planning, and especially good content and networking … SMX is something every search marketer should attend at least once.
I’m curious to see how the SMX Singapore turns out, hopefully I’ll be able to attend.
Elmer, are you going to be going out there in Oct. even though it’s not in HK?

I am going to ask my boss on attending this one. Yes, I’ve heard that SMX series are productive ones. Participants often write about their feedback and often write good things about it. Makes me feel lucky to learn something from SMX even without leaving my office desk.
Hope to make it this time Eric, so I can meet you too.
