Hello from the Internet AUStars Tour in Australia, where Nikhil Parekh and I are hosting a 10-day Internet Marketing extravaganza across three Australian cities – Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.

After organizing several of our own workshops this year covering Internet Marketing, Affiliate Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, Social Media, Google AdWords and Agency Training, Nikhil Parekh and I decided to close off our final event of the year by inviting a handful of top notch Internet Marketing experts to present alongside with us at the premiere Internet AUstars multi-speaker event.

The goal for Internet AUStars was to provide as much value as possible to our attendees, so Nikhil Parekh and I were very selective about the experts we invited – They must be successful in what they are teaching, willing to conduct not one but two trainings, and be around the entire event even after they have presented for speaker panels, hot seats, networking sessions and make themselves available for one-on-one time with individual attendees.

It was a challenge to narrow down our list of worldwide experts, but in the end, our international Internet AUStars team included Dr. Mike Woo-Ming from San Diego, CA, Christopher Guerriero from New Jersey, David Cavanagh from Thailand, Glenn Dietzel from Ontario, Canada, as well as guest appearances from Australian locals Peter Drew, Paul Barrs, Aimee Vo and Katerina Morjanoff.

Even though the Internet AUStars 10-day tour was grueling event for the entire team, it was very much worth it just to be able to bring all these worldwide talents to the Australian audience.

The SMART Seminar has returned to Singapore this year following a tremendously successful event I ran with Stuart Tan in Malaysia and Singapore last year.

With the addition of this year’s roster of Internet rockstars, which includes Fabian Lim, Jo Han Mok, Jaz Lai, Alok Jain, Andy Huang, Peter Parks, Dr. Mike Woo-Ming, Nikhil Parekh and Ian Del Carmen…

The SMART Seminar has successfully brought some of the top experts to Singapore from the United States, Canada, Australia, United Kingdom, Philippines and India.

As always, our top priority at The SMART Seminar is to bring as much value as possible to the attendees, which is why we have filled our agenda with content-packed presentations, expert panels with Q&A and group networking sessions, so the audience can really get to know each speaker.

Internet Marketing Bootcamp In Sydney, Australia

Aug 23 · by Simon Leung

Hello from the Swiss Grand Hotel on Bondi Beach at the Internet Marketing Bootcamp in Sydney, Australia!

Internet Marketing Bootcamp at Swiss Grand Hotel

Yes, we’ve finally made our way back to Sydney to conclude over two months on the road to end our trip with a bang with our Australian audience.

By popular demand, Nikhil Parekh and I have put together an entire event based on the nuts and bolts of the Internet Marketing business starting from A to Z.

For the Internet Marketing Bootcamp, we have decided to limit our attendance to no more than 50 attendees (compared to the 200 we’ve had in our past events), so that we can make it more interactive and also have the opportunity to personally help everyone and answer all their questions.

With the help of Andy Huang and David DiNucci, we were once again able to pull off yet another spectacular event.

To top it off, we even decided at the last minute to extend our event an additional two days to spend more time with serious students who are dedicated to helping us expand our AIMVenture Corporation agency services to the Australian market.

This was an extremely aggressive way for us to conclude the Internet Marketing Bootcamp, but now, we have some of our best students helping us grow our business, and getting rewarded handsomely as a result of their help :)

AdWords Mastery In Sydney, Australia

Jun 28 · by Simon Leung

Hello from the Swiss Grand Hotel on Bondi Beach at the AdWords Mastery in Sydney, Australia!

internet austars

AdWords Mastery at Swiss Grand Hotel

AdWords Mastery is my second event in with Nikhil Parekh, my Sydney based partner with whom I am building the Internet AUStars brand across Australia.

This time, I’ve brought along my business partners Andy Huang and David DiNucci to help run this spectacular event we are putting on for almost 200 attendees.

Over the course of the weekend, we covered Google AdWords fundamentals, optimization strategies and landing page formulas designed to overcome the dreaded “Google Slap,” which refers to penalties advertisers get as a result of creating campaigns that are not Google friendly.

For our VIP students, we also organized an evening networking party to socialize and get the chance to know everyone better, which is much easier to do in a social setting compared to the seminar room.

And for the record, I just want to say that I simply LOVE doing events “down under” … Check out this Australian welcome!


Thanks Sydney! I look forward to being back this August for the next Internet AUStars live event!

Hello from the Ionic Room of the Sydney Masonic Centre at the Internet AuStars Google Insider Secrets to Social Media Domination in Sydney, Australia!

The Google Insider Secrets to Social Media Domination is my first project under the Internet AuStars brand with my good friend, Nikhil Parekh.

For those of you who don’t know him, Nikhil Parekh is a very successful Internet entrepreneur and one of the leading marketing experts in Australia teaching fellow entrepreneurs how to make money online.

This past weekend in Sydney, Nikhil Parekh and I organized the Google Insider Secrets to Social Media Domination event for over 150 attendees, teaching the importance of using social media for branding, building relationships and marketing, and primarily to get high authority search engine rankings on Google.

In fact, Nikhil Parekh and I demonstrated how powerful effective social media marketing can really be live on stage by getting multiple page one rankings for some pretty competitive keywords!

But in addition to the content and live demos, we also realized the opportunity to network with one another not only in the room during the event, but after the event on both days as well.

Anyone interested were invited to join us for additional fun and networking opportunities after the events for chats, meals and even a nice evening cruise around the Sydney harbor.

Overall, it was a tremendous experience and my weekend in Sydney working with Nikhil Parekh at our Internet AuStars event was one heck of a way to wrap up my Australia trip.

Thanks, Australia~ I look forward to enjoying more great times when I come back again in a few months!

Hello from the Grand Ballroom of the Gold Coast International Hotel at Brett McFall and Tom Hua’s World Internet Summit in Gold Coast, Queensland Australia!

Simon Leung With Tom Hua And Brett McFall At World Internet Summit Gold Coast 2009

The World Internet Summit (aka WIS) is always an incredible learning and networking experience.

I had the opportunity to present back in September 2007 when Brett McFall and Tom Hua co-organized the seminar (then called World Internet Main Event) with Mike Filsaime, Paulie Sabol and Donna Fox in San Francisco.

But this weekend, I was extremely excited to watch Brett McFall and Tom Hua in action in their home country of Australia, where they not only brought local experts to the World Internet Summit Gold Coast stage, they also invited several of my fellow marketing expert friends from the states.

The World Internet Summit Gold Coast speaker line-up included Matt Bacak, Sean Roach, Dr. Mike Woo-Ming, Brian “Koz” Kosobucki, Nikhil Parekh, Debra Thompson Roedl, Matt Clarkson, Amanda Clarkson, Barnaby De Palma, Raymond Aaron, James Schramko and Scott Letourneau.

Needless to say, the World Internet Summit Gold Coast audience definitely got their money’s worth with the priceless content these speakers shared.

Off the World Internet Summit stage, we even got to hang out at the local restaurants and bars in Gold Coast’s nightlife area called Surfer’s Paradise.

As you can see, we stayed out of trouble (for the most part) – but we no doubt had some good times with friends downtown…
