Man In Red Suit During SEO Panel

For all you old timers in the SEO industry, the man in the red suit at the SEO conference is Mikkel deMib Svendsen from Denmark. Just like the man in the yellow shoes was Rand Fishkin (although the red suit came way earlier).

Well, I spotted a picture posted by Google's Mariya Moeva on Google+ of another man in a red suit, even with a red shirt, and it was not Mikkel. My mouth dropped and I zoomed in and saw it was not Mikkel.

Just use Google Image search for [Mikkel deMib Svendsen] and you'll see the red suit, it is like his SEO trademark. But this guy is pulling it off nicely as well.

Of course, the presentation was in Russia, so maybe Mikkel can't sue him over the red suit. :)

Mariya wrote "Up on stage with +Andrey Lipattsev​ and our colleagues from Yandex and Mail.ru at the Search Engines section at #optimization2015." She made no mention of the red suit but I quickly asked about it. When I asked her about it she said, "he is clearly a ninja blending in with the carpet." Clearly.
