Event Details
⏰ Time : 18:00 – 23:00
📍 Venue : Farringdon (Actual venue name to be announced in January)
We’re kicking off 2026 with something special: Search London is turning 15, and we’re teaming up for a one-night celebration that blends two communities, fresh ideas, and the kind of industry energy you can’t fake.
On 24 February 2026, we’ll gather in central London (venue TBC, but expect something fun and very “London-after-work”) to talk search, AI, search trends, community building — and of course, raise a glass to 15 years of Search London bringing people together.
This joint edition will bring the Search London and Search ’n Stuff communities into one room for an evening of learning, connection, and good chaos.
Come for the insights. Stay for the conversations that will probably spark your next big idea.

🎤 Speaker: Erin Simmons (They / Them)

Talk: Trust → Visibility: SEO Powered by Community
You can AI-engineer your content and website all day, but even if you show up in the answers, you still won’t be chosen if people don’t trust you. Trust isn’t built between a person and a brand; it’s built in the communities, conversations, and human spaces where people help each other make sense of the world.
In this talk, Erin Simmons explores the growing trust gap in search and why the real SEO edge comes from showing up where trust is being exchanged. When you earn trust, people make you visible – they reference you in conversations, recommend you in threads, and surface you in the exact places AI and search engines now look for signals. Visibility is a byproduct of trust. And if you focus on trust first, you’ll show up everywhere that matters: in AI results, in search, and in the moments when people turn to one another to decide what to believe.
