Webmaster World’s PubCon Vegas 2006 can help you beat the odds

We’re hoping that what happens in Vegas definitely does not stay in Vegas, at least not this time. This Vegas trip is not going to be about late nights at the roulette tables, exotic shows, bourbon and rich food—well, at least not entirely. This Vegas trip’s going to be a learning experience that we think may help make you be a more successful publisher.

Webmaster World’s PubCon Vegas, 2006, begins Tuesday, November 14 and ends Friday, November 17. In between, you’ll be able to learn from some of the masters of profitability in the web world, including:

• Big thinker and entrepreneur Guy Kawasaki
• SEM guru Danny Sullivan
• Yahoo!’s Dave Roth, director of Search Engine Marketing
• Jen Slegg, famed blogstress of Jensense, and an occasional contributor to the blog
• Yahoo! Senior Director of Strategic Alliances Dan Boberg
• Webmaster Radio’s Daron Babin, who wrote a nice piece on podcasting for the blog
• Our own Cody Simms, Senior Product Manager at Yahoo! Publisher Network.
• Yahoo!’s Director of Emerging Products, Warren Kay
• Industry Standard founder and industry intellectual, John Batelle
• Search Engine Round Table’s editor extraordinaire, Barry Schwartz, also a blog contributor
• Tim Mayer, Yahoo! Director of Product Management 

And of course, be sure to drop by our WebmasterWorld booth, #411.

In addition, we’d like to ask publishers in our network to drop us a line letting us know that you’ll be there, so we can keep an eye out for you. We would love to meet as many of our publishers as possible. Please email us if you plan to attend, at publisher-info[at]yahoo-inc[dot]com, or go to the event’s Upcoming.org page and click “I’m attending.”
