I was talking to a colleague just the other day and we were discussing the possibility of grabbing positional SERP data via some kind of CURL backwards lookup of the referer url but ended up agreeing that the SE's probably wouldn't be too impressed by the number of requests such a feature would add, other than by a paid API perhaps...food for thought :D Hi Dennis, yes indeed – I’m certainly going to make a bigger effort the next time.

I spent 3 days in London before flying back, but you are absolutely right - some of the best stuff is delivered in the Lobby bar or over dinner with other experts. Cheers mate dennis Dennis R.

Great rundown of the London SES Show! I spent 3 days in London before flying back, but you are absolutely right – some of the best stuff is delivered in the Lobby bar or over dinner with other experts.
