Opening Remarks + Keynote: Rand Fishkin

This year WC AVL is thrilled to have as our keynote speaker Rand Fishkin, of SparkToro, Moz, and Inbound.org fame, and, more importantly, an awesome human being. Prior engagements during WordCamp weekend mean we have the happy accident of hearing his keynote live in our smaller Meetup group.

Bio: Rand Fishkin is the cofounder and CEO of SparkToro. He’s dedicated his professional life to helping people do better marketing through his blogging, videos, speaking, and his book, Lost and Founder. When Rand’s not working, he’s most likely to be in the company of his partner in marriage and (mostly petty) crime, author Geraldine DeRuiter. If you feed him great pasta or great whisky, he’ll give you the cheat code to rank #1 on Google.
