Due to popular demand, Ahrefs Evolve is back. And this time, we’re in San Diego.
After hosting 500 marketers and 18 top speakers in the heart of tropical Singapore, we’re bringing our flagship marketing conference stateside this October. Hello, San Diego!
And there’s only one teeny-tiny little thing standing between you and two days of world-class talks and networking: your boss (and their Q4 budget ).
So here are five reasons your boss should send you to Ahrefs Evolve (with a handy email you can send them).

Request to Attend Ahrefs Evolve 2025 – San Diego, CA
Hi [Manager’s Name],I’d like to request approval to attend Ahrefs Evolve 2025, happening October 14–15 in San Diego, with a pre-conference
VIP experience on October 13.
This is Ahrefs’ flagship event and its first US edition. It’s designed for marketing professionals, agency leaders, and
decision-makers looking to sharpen their edge in marketing, SEO, content strategy, AI, and data-driven performance.
I believe attending will bring immediate value to our team—especially for [mention specific project or initiative].
Why it’s worth attending:
1. Strategic insights, not fluff. The agenda includes practical sessions from top CMOs, SEO leaders, and performance marketers. Topics include:
– How AI is changing search and marketing
– Content strategies that drive revenue, not just rankings
– Technical SEO, CRO, and performance analytics
– Emerging tools and frameworks we can implement right away
2. Valuable connections. Evolve brings together 600+ attendees from leading brands and agencies. The networking opportunities could
lead to idea exchanges, partnerships, and new perspectives that benefit our work.
3. Real impact back at work. I’ll document key learnings and share takeaways with the team through internal notes, recaps, or a short workshop. The goal is to ensure this investment translates into smarter strategies and improved outcomes.
Let me know if we can set aside a few minutes to discuss. I’m confident this will be a worthwhile opportunity to elevate
our work.
Thanks,
[Your Name]
