I'll be there. Let's get The Enforcer to do some interviews for us again. :whistling

Don't worry though Matt, we won't have to rely on Gonzo's equipment this time, I'll be bringing my handy dandy field recorder.

Content, Traffic/SEO, Marketing and Legal. How many different ways can you discuss the same 4 topics? I'm more interested in who will be talking, and whether they have a personal agenda or business to push.

The traffic seminar at Miami was entertaining, Jay and Qon are funny guys, but I can't say I learned anything new.

Oh and what is this thing called Newbie Orientation? Newbies at Internext Vegas? Only if they're attending on someone elses dime.

Still showing an absence of a clue....

Seminars at this point only attract newbs unless you can do one of two things:

1) Put someone on the stick that people actually wanna hear speak...

2) Actually teach something. The content class is a step in right direction but only if it's someone reputable teaching and with the right tools to demonstrate. Better classes would be "how to" on different tools, Wordpress, etc. Especially if you can show some tips that apply directly to adult usage and traffic filtering.

No interesting in chicken little lawyer acts or SEO experts who have a budget of $100 a month to spend on the engines.

where are al the basic classes for affiliates?

or how about basic classes or seminars for program owners?

we are in an affiliate/sponsor era big time right now, IMHO AVN has barely had any grasp on the online adult industry and this just shows how much they have almost completely lost that grasp

AVN is a VIDEO promotion company/magazine, that is how they started and that is how they are evolving, they have no clue about much of the online side of things....they are just still pushing internext because it is a cash cow for them, they make so much damn money off this convention it is obscene, why woudl they even make an attempt to spend more of that profit to make people happy?

I admit they are trying a little, but very little

if someone gave me a $10,000.00 in Microsoft stock for everytime i heard someone say "i really need to check out those seminars at the show" in the last 8-9 years, that portfolio today would be worth $0.00

I feel they have good intentions, but if one has to advertise "open bar" to get people to attend, one can't be expecting much. :)
