in a room above The Quadrant pub in Brighton on the south coast of the UK.
A few months later the second edition took place in July at Brighton’s Community Base.
The first brightonSEO was on 19 February 2010
In 2011 we moved to the spring & autumn schedule we all know and love.
We were at the Sallis Benney theatre in April then the Corn Exchange for September.
In 2012 we shifted next door into the Brighton Dome Concert Hall, using only the stalls in April then expanding onto the balcony for September.
In 2013 we went multi-track
using various spaces in the Brighton Dome before outgrowing it and moving to our current venue, the Brighton Centre, in September 2016.
2020 moved us online for the first time
(turns out this internet thing is quite clever really) and we even managed to sneak in a bonus edition in the summer of 2021 before running our first online and in-person event in September 2021.
2021's event was our first multi-day conference
We stretched out from one day of brightonSEO to two (with our fringe conferences and training workshop offering an optional third day).
We went international in 2023
We jumped across the pond to launch our first event in the US in San Diego.
