PubCon Review 2007

Thursday, December 27th, 2007

It was great! This year the Webmaster World PubCon Networking event was moved from the Nine Fine Irishmen Pub (which during the past events got so crowded it felt like it was built for nine customers) in the New York New York Hotel and Casino, to the Brew Pub at the Monte Carlo Hotel and Casino. I am very happy for this move. (more…)

2007 Webmaster World Conference Review

Sunday, December 9th, 2007

Wow! This years Webmaster World Conference was the best of the four years I’ve attended. Although the majority of the sessions rehash what I already know or have previously learned, there was certainly new and timely nuggets to be found throughout the conference sessions. The networking was as good as ever. The food was, well, you know, Convention Centerish (SMX decked us out with stylish and fresh buffet lunches, yummie! and classy too). There were great parties and special off site events this year too.

Tuesday and Thursday each had five tracks equaling 25 sessions each day and Wednesday had 15 sessions. since I could only go to 13 sessions physically, these are the ones I went to: (more…)

SMX Social Media NYC

Wow, what can I say? I made it to NYC for the SMX Social Media Conference. It was certainly what I hoped for. I don’t even want to blog about it? Why? Because, (more…)

Going to SMX Social Media NYC

Thursday, October 4th, 2007

Okay, I’m going, got my plane tix today. I know some of the things that will be presented there:

Lot’s of talk about social media marketing and linkbaiting and news social sites and hopefully good info on book marking and tagging.

I’ve been doinking with a few Social sites and the results are certainly encouraging. This aspect of Internet marketing is fun also so NYC, here I come.

I went to the SMX Advanced in Seattle this past June and I was fairly impressed. It was like an SES with less people and less commercialism from the panel. Let’s hope it stays this way!

Oh, goody, maybe I’ll get to see Lion King this time in the Big Apple.

Dreamtime Festival

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

Oh fun, fun, fun! I am headed to the Dreamtime Festival in Paonia. Last year it was a great time with about 20 musical performances and a dozen or more attractions like the huge Massage hut with 15 tables or the bio-diesel workshops and solar power booth and much more. Of course my 10 year old son is excited to go also. I’ll probably perform on drums as a guest with my friends from LionVibes. Maybe next year I’ll sign up to do a Web Workshop there. I’ll call it “WebTime: More than just a dream!”

Maybe I’ll see you there: www.dreamthefuture.org.

The topic was “Affilliate Marketing: Make Money Selling Other Peoples Stuff.” (more…)

New SEO Headquarters

Tuesday, July 3rd, 2007

Hello again Friends.

I’ve moved my Colorado SEO business headquarters. I’ll still keep networked with my much smaller home office, but for now I am working about ten miles up the highway, in Carbondale, Colorado. This move should prove to be very productive. I am excited! More time for SEO services which means I can do more hands on marketing work for my extant clients and also take on a few more cherry accounts.

This move also puts me in the same office condo as my favorite programmer and another marketing business colleague, both of whom I look forward to working closer with.

Look for big things coming from Mr. Web Guru and friends immediately. Yes!

Movin’ up in the world I suppose.

Search Engine Workshops, Advanced Strategies - Day Three

Friday, February 23rd, 2007

Last night was really great. I met up with my friend Daphne for a massage and she worked me over something fierce. Daphne Jean aka DJ, Wow, I wish I lived here I’d get one of those a week. When I got back to the hotel I found Dave with John and Robin hanging out down in the sports bar. (Unbeatable) Dave asked me for a “lesson” on the pool table. So I gave him one and won the match too. Surprise! This morning I had the omelet instead of the buffet. good decision.

Today we started the Workshops with John Alexander, who talked about Media for the Web, (more…)
