What SEO conferences do you recommend?

[Googleankan]

I need your recommendations for which SEO conference I should attend to during 2011-2012.

I've been working with SEO since 2002 so I'm not a beginner. I want the good stuff!  However I havn't been to that many conferences before, only PubCon Las Vegas several times. I would therefore appreciate some help from you guys who have tried them all (or at least several of them) 

Thank's a lot!

The best two days that I have ever spent was at Brad Geddes' Adwords Seminars.  I've attended them twice and learned a ton both times.

Go there expecting to THINK HARD.  I thought they were about as challenging as a college calculus class.. anybody who thinks that he is going to sit there, sip coffee and fart should stay home.  This is really a math class of conversion rates, bidding strategies and profit margins.  Spreadsheets!

My main SEO conference experience has been attending several SES and SMX events. I personally prefer the SMX events because I think they tend to have fresher topics, and it's a more comfortable conference to attend in that you have better food, more networking time between sessions, etc. SMX Advanced is good in that it's a somewhat smaller show, and has more advanced topics.

I think some of it depends on your focus. A small, focused seminar like EGOL talks about may be just what you need, or you may want a conference with a wider variety of topics.
