Incisive Media announced that Kevin Ryan has joined Search Engine Strategies and Search Engine Watch as vice president of global content.

Ryan will leave his post as iMedia's search editor to join Incisive.

"I've been lucky to have Kevin Ryan as iMedia's Search Editor since I first started at the company in 2004: he has been our longest running and most prolific columnist as well as a key advisor and a good friend," said iMedia Editor in Chief & Chief Content Officer Brad Berens. "I'm both personally and professionally sad to see him leave us, but I'm also happy both for Kevin and for Incisive. He is clearly the right guy to take the reins at SES. Congratulations!"
