SEO On Stage didn't begin with a slide deck. It began with two obsessions that took twenty years to meet.
My very first job was with a company called On Stage, where I worked as events manager — learning how a room is built, how a night is paced, and how an audience is moved. Everything after that was search: a twenty-year career in SEO, spent at every kind of industry conference, watching brilliant ideas delivered under fluorescent lights over lukewarm coffee.
The two halves of that career kept pointing at the same thing. The search community — one of the most creative and generous industries there is — deserved a better stage. So we built one.
Part theatre production, part rock concert — with the highest-level speakers in the industry. We take the search world out of the ballroom and put it on a real stage, in some of the best cities on earth: Athens, Dubai, Prague — and soon, more.
This is a family business in the truest sense. The team behind SEO On Stage is my own family — my wife, my father and my daughters all work on the production. When you're with us on the night, you're with them too.
Real theatres and concert halls — never a fluorescent ballroom — in Athens, Dubai and Prague.
The best minds in SEO, content and marketing, rehearsed and staged like keynotes should be.
Live music scoring the intermissions, and an atmosphere built to make people connect.
Crafted food and proper drinks all day — never lukewarm coffee in the hall.
We take to the water before the curtain rises — the tour's signature welcome night.
Networking, a mastermind table, activities and after-shows that run late.
Our mission is simple: to give something back to the community we come from — to make it more international, stronger and better. Every edition is built to bring the industry together across borders, and to send everyone home with new connections, new ideas, and a night they won't forget.
