Traffic Think Tank Live 2021
Join us for a one-day virtual event that brings together a collection of the world’s leading marketing experts. Traffic Think Tank Live 2021 will deliver tactical talks on SEO, content marketing, affiliate marketing, leadership, and running an agency, as well as virtual roundtable sessions where you can connect directly with the experts - all available from the comfort of your home.
Inspirational & Informative talks
Forget the same churned-out talks you see recycled and reused at the plethora of other marketing events out there. We work closely with all of our speakers - some of which can only be seen sharing their tactics at Traffic Think Tank Live - to ensure we give you the most interesting and relevant content to help you solve the problems you're facing.
We'll also have virtual roundtable sessions where you can connect directly with the experts and ask all of your burning questions.
Meet the speakers
We've pulled together some of the leading experts in the industry, some of which rarely share their secrets on stage, to bring you insights that go above and beyond what you can simply find out online. Similar to last year's event - and unlike most other events, you'll be able to ask questions directly to each of the speakers via our virtual roundtable session, making this an opportunity you simply can't miss.

Nick Eubanks
CEO @ From The Future & Cofounder @ Traffic Think Tank
Nick Eubanks
Nick founded his first company at age 19, and sold his first business at age 24. Now, he consults on SEO strategy to billion-dollar businesses as the Founder and Chief Strategist of I’m From the Future. Because free time is overrated, he wrote and sold a 47-post blog for $100K on a whim, and launched multiple infoproducts in niches he had less than no experience in that netted over $500k in revenue.
When it comes to technical SEO and information architecture, Nick’s the one guy you definitely want to have on your team—and now, you do.
Ian Howells
Cofounder @ Traffic Think Tank
Ian Howells
If you’ve never heard of Ian Howells, it’s because he’d probably prefer it that way. He’s more of a “shut up and rank sh*#!” guy.
Since ’99, he’s competed in and dominated in the fiercest niches and darkest corners of the web (think: poker, pills, and… you know.)
His agency work began in 2007, eventually landing him at Red Ventures where he managed a book of business worth millions per month. He then lead SEO at LendingTree, ranking for terms like “car loans” and “debt consolidation.”
He's now an independent SEO, monetizing his own sites and doing limited consulting.
