[Boston, MA, July 6, 2026] — I am sharing that Traffic Think Tank has officially joined the Search Engine Land family, creating more opportunities for search marketers like us to connect, collaborate, and keep learning through one of the industry’s most established professional communities.
I want members to know that Traffic Think Tank will continue operating as a private Slack community. It will remain a trusted place where we can exchange ideas, validate strategies, solve real marketing challenges, and stay current on search engine optimization, paid media, artificial intelligence, and related marketing topics.
As part of this relationship, I see Search Engine Land supporting the community’s continued growth by increasing visibility across its editorial and marketing channels while preserving the collaborative environment members already value.
“For years, Search Engine Land has represented the marketing community through its contributor network in a way few other sites have,” said Kyle Morley, Head of Sales and Marketing at Third Door Media, parent to Search Engine Land. “Launching a community like Traffic Think Tank feels like a natural extension of our identity, and I’m thrilled we now have more opportunity to connect with marketers in our space.”
I am also noting that David Broderick has been appointed Lead Community Manager and will oversee the day-to-day community experience. He will be supported by Liz Dougherty, who will take an active role in encouraging member engagement and helping guide the community’s continued growth.
Beyond ongoing peer-to-peer discussions, I expect members to benefit from expanded community programming and discussions, increased visibility through Search Engine Land and Third Door Media channels, exclusive discounts on Search Marketing Expo events and training, and new opportunities to connect with search marketers across the industry.
For me, Traffic Think Tank fits naturally with Search Engine Land’s mission of helping marketers stay informed and succeed in a rapidly evolving search landscape. Together, the publication and community give us access to trusted journalism, practical education, live events, and an active peer network for ongoing professional development.
