I'll Be Speaking At The XBiz Summer Forum!

[Greenguy]

I threw my hat into the seminar ring for the XBiz Summer Forum (http://www.xbizsummerforum.com/) (June 8-10 @ The Hard Rock in Las Vegas) and they have asked me to be on the SEO: 2010 Strategies, Techniques & Best Practices (http://www.xbizsummerforum.com/schedule.php) panel, which is on Tuesday June 8th at 10:00 AM.

The seminar is described as:
As quality traffic becomes harder and more expensive for adult websites to attract, the prospect of free search engine traffic is becoming evermore important. At the same time, changes at leading search engines present renewed opportunities for organic SEO marketers. Learn the latest ways to get your share of search engine visitors at this highly anticipated traffic session.

While I am not an expert on search engines, I do know the basics on setting up your pages to give you a good chance at landing some top spots. I am looking forward to the seminar as well as the entire XBiz Summer Forum (http://www.xbizsummerforum.com/) experience.

XBiz BLOWS AWAY both of the AVN conventions & if you're on the fence about going, let me say that this is the MUST ATTEND adult webmaster event of the year, as it has been for the last 4 years.

Hopefully I'll see some of you out there |waves|

July 3rd for the Lesnar/Carwin match?

[oldbrad]

Yeah. Flying in for the fight then leaving in time to be home for the fourth. I'll be so drunk I prolly on't even remember the fights lol.

Nice |thumb

[Ramster]

Congrats.

I like this show but I will be skipping it this year as cash flow is a little tight sadly.

[bDok]

Congrats.

I'm hoping I can make this one. I'd like to at least make a couple days.

[cthulhu_waves]

Congrats and break a leg, Greenie!

[JustRobert]

Congrats Greenie

Going to miss this year, need to save money for a trip to Canada :D

[MeatPounder]

Another reason for me to be pissed (not that your speaking but that I have to miss it)

Unfortunately my mainstream senior partner is having valve replacement surgery the following week and he is a mess (scared as hell especially after finding out the mortality rate for atrial replacement is about 1%....1 out of 100 chance of dying is nothing to sneeze at)

There is no way I can leave him (or our office) at a time like this....luckily my suites were comped and I purchased my plane tickets far enough in advance I got a refund with no penalties, not to mention AVN was comping the pass...so I'm not out of pocket at all

[SCORE-Cash]

I'm not going... Now I'm disapointed.

[khepra]

I just started in attending industry shows (XBIZ LA and Phoenix Forum) and it's too bad you weren't speaking at those. I'd love to hear you speak, but can't make it to Vegas then. :(

Hopefully this won't be a one-time thing for you so I can catch you next time.

[cabbagehead]

good job! |headbang|

[adamneve]

Awesome, will see you there ;)

[bluebrit]

I'd like to see that. I'll have to check how much those passes were again.

[Greenguy]

8 hours until my seminar & I can't sleep - I think I might actually be a little bit nervous :D

[Simon]

Any idea if the seminars will be recorded so those of us who aren't fortunate enough to be there might still enjoy listening to the speakers?

[Greenguy]

I think they have recorded them in the past - I will ask Helmy when I see him today.

[Fonz]

So, how was it? :)

They update their video podcasts on Wednesday's (no sure if it'll be up there tomorrow or next week)

So, how was it? :)It was very interesting. Turns out I was the moderator for the SEO seminar, which was news to me as I missed the email telling me that I was to be the moderator :D I think I did a decent job & the panel gave some useful info.

LAS VEGAS — The XBIZ Summer Forum officially got underway today, highlighted by a slate of informative and entertaining educational panels, presentations and seminars.
First up was the highly anticipated discussion of modern search engine optimization and marketing techniques, "SEO 2010: Strategies, Techniques and Best Practices," which was moderated by online adult entertainment industry veteran Mark "Greenguy" Jenkins.

[Greenguy]

veteran = has-been :D

[NinjaSteve]

I heard the xbiz forum is great (compared to AVN, etc).

It is. Internext in vegas in january is fun but I feel like I get more ROI actually out of xbiz. I'm sad I'm not there this year. :(

Looks like you had a great group of guys to work with.
Kevin G is a smart guy and Charles from Wildline has been a great guy to work with over the years. Dont know the others but those two alone would make it a good seminar to listen in on.

Looks a lot better than the obvious bullshit I see from the panelists on this list ... Im betting last year most of em couldnt spell social networking...let alone be experts.

Moderated by Kelly Shibari of Hourglass8 Media, the panel of adult social media experts included Pete Housley of PornStarTweet.com; Terry Mundell of Kink.com; Brian Gross of BSG PR; and "XXX Jay" Quinlan of OC Cash.

Did you stick around for this one Mark? And if so did anyone say anything of value or just describe how to spam pay sites on twitter and facebook?

[Greenguy]

...Did you stick around for this one Mark? And if so did anyone say anything of value or just describe how to spam pay sites on twitter and facebook?Yes, BlueBrit & I did stay around for this one. It was mostly geared toward proper (and legit) techniques on how to promote yourself.

All 4 seemed to know their shit, but Pete Housley of PornStarTweet.com was very helpful & informative.

[LAJ]

I've got Pete Housley speaking on one of my panels with Kelly Shibari in San Fran next month http://www.cybernetexpo.com

How's attendance at the show in vegas this year Greenie?
