Adam Jewell - Search & Affiliate Marketing

If you’ve ever been to the WebmasterWorld PubCon you know it is one of the best conferences for Internet marketing. Search, affiliate, social, design, development and usability are all included in the mix. The conference is usually held at the Las Vegas convention center near the Las Legas Hilton and the Las Vegas Renaissance. When registration opens, you can register for PubCon online and usually get a good deal if you register early.

Last year the conference had a special deal on rooms at the Las Vegas Wynn for under $200/night which is a killer deal for that property. However after going into the Okada Japanese restaurant at the Las Vegas Wynn and getting served what tasted like dirty laundry water and being offered $8 bottled water as an alternative, I won’t be returning to the Wynn again.

If you are going to the Vegas PubCon, there are lots of great hotels and restaurants there. The Las Legas Hilton is ok, and the Las Vegas Renaissance is outstanding for those who like to come back to come peace and quiet in Vegas at the end of a long day (or an all-nighter).

The Las Vegas Planet Hollywood is a nice new place that used to be the Alladin and sometimes you can get it for around $100/night on Priceline and other hotel aggregator websites. It’s a bit far from the convention center but in a great overall location for the Las Vegas strip.

While in Las Vegas there are some great shows to go to. You can save some $$$ on the top shows at Ticket2Night.com including KA, Zumanity, BlueMan Group, Crasy Horse Paris and others.

If you’ve got some great info to share with the Internet marketing industry, be sure to use the PubCon speaker proposal form pretty soon to have a chance at getting selected to present there.
