SMX Paris 2018: The Search Marketing Expo Returns to Paris June 12–13

For the ninth year in a row, Search Marketing Expo (SMX), the conference series also known for its U.S. editions, will stop in Paris on June 12 and 13, 2018. One change from last year: SMX Paris 2018 moves to the Marriott Rive Gauche Hotel & Conference Center. As in 2017, Référenceur is one of the event’s partner blogs.

The organizers haven’t released the full 2018 program yet, but it once again looks promising, and it should echo many of the SEO trends for 2018, with:

• 2 days of conference sessions running in 2 parallel tracks
• More than 50 French and international speakers
• More than 30 sessions on SEO, paid search, and social media marketing
• More than 300 attendees

Why It Matters for U.S. Companies

For a U.S. business that sells, or plans to sell, in France or other French-speaking markets, SMX Paris is a practical way to see how search marketing works there: how French-language queries behave, what local practitioners are testing, and how the same Google and social platforms are used in a different language and culture. Our international SEO guide covers the groundwork for expanding beyond the U.S.
