The relationship between user experience and search engine optimization is often murky and, at times, even hostile. These two disciplines – both crucial for the success of online digital products – often work in their own vacuums without consulting with or even considering one another. Imagine how powerful your site could be if it was informed by input from SEO and UX experts who worked together to find solutions for both usability and findability.

Our expert panel will discuss SEO and UX best practices, what to do when the two disciplines disagree, Google’s take on UX, and the benefits of collaborating to find the best possible solution for the most important people involved, our site visitors.
