160 Web Marketing Events Deserving Attention in 2016

With so many web marketing events going on in the world it is increasingly difficult to find which to consider to plan your “digital study trip” without risking to waste time and money.

We decided to map the most significant ones, with at least one international session in English, dividing them by their main focus. In particular we identified these categories: PPC, SEO, Social Media, Content, Analytics, eCommerce, email, Conversion Rate Optimization, User Experience, Affiliate Marketing or Digital Marketing (general intent/topics).

Some dates are missing, because organizers have not published any update yet. If you think we left out something important feel free to comment with few details about you and the reason why we should have considered that particular event (being one of the organizers is not a valid one 😉
