A couple of weeks ago, Serpzilla organized a meetup of the brightest minds in SEO in Ahmedabad – the SEO capital of India.
This event had been planned since the start of this year. Most of you must have received emails and seen the news on your social media timelines. In the rare event that you didn’t, you should follow Serpzilla on Twitter and LinkedIn right away!
The event was scheduled from 6 PM onwards on a Friday evening… so the 75+ strong audience was enthusiastic about beginning their weekend by meeting their peers and friends from the industry.
Jaydip Parikh, our old friend, started off the proceedings by asking the everyone to introduce themselves.
Spotted among the crowd were some of our most valued community members, including
Our expert contributor Jignesh Gohel:
Then there was our superstar friend Rohan Ayyar (you just can’t keep him away from the stage):
And of course yours truly Dipti Parmar, religiously covering the proceedings and sharing on our socials:
And then it was time for the presentations…
Jaydip (Baba as he is known) went first. The hot topic in SEO is generative AI and there was no way we can ignore this. Jaydip addressed this topic with his usual pizzazz and some very simple but interesting examples.
The key points he made were:

The best thing about this meetup was that everyone in the audience chimed in enthusiastically – whether to ask a question or to voice an opinion. It made the event one of the most engaging of all time.
We can’t resist a single opportunity to connect with our community. Watch this space for a recap of our Bangalore event which took place last week!
