Are you ready for this? Pubcon 2009 in Sunny Las Vegas is almost here. And for the first time ever, I’m taking the podium. Runnin’ with the big dawgs. It’s in a few weeks and I still have yet to complete my presentation.
I’m screwed.
But at least my session is the first one, on the first day, so the chances of me nursing a killer hangover and possibly missing my speaking gig will be reduced by AT LEAST 15% – give or take.
If you know me, you know I’ve been a pretty hardcore SEO for about a decade. And if you know me well, you know that I’ve pretty much transitioned myself into full bore affiliate marketer recently. I still have a couple cool clients, but it’s no longer my core focus. At the time when I put in my request to speak at Pubcon, I was still seeking clients aggressively. And my strength to date has been corporate SEO. And that’s what I’ll be speaking about. How to build and in-house SEO team.
For my ex-competitors, you’ll get the sauce. Might be worth a look eh?
The rest of the week, I’ll be chasing Lisa Barone around in hopes of getting a kiss on the cheek… or something. I’ll hopefully be the proud winner of a personal assistant (brought to you by the same guys who inspired and caused DRINKBAIT) to help me build beer bongs and make people take shots. And I will be buying shots for SURE for those people who supported my efforts in the Anthem Relay for Life. Some awesome peeps like Jon Kelly, the bad asses saving the world through bioresins and what not over at ThomasNet, and one inspirational Raleigh SEO named Casey Yandle.
So get ready people. This is gonna be the best year EVER for PUBCON VEGAS!!

@Andrew – I think so. Depends on a lot of variables but I really should start going to those things.
@Dan – got a donation from them supporting my walk for cancer. Kinda funny, I thought you had something to do with it!
My preso is about corporate SEO and it’s the first one on the first day. I’m talking about SEO team building.

Damn you Chris Hooley, you’re always chasing after the girls I have crushes on. Remember http://womenofseo.wordpress.com/ ? Last post nearly 3 years ago, time to revive me thinks, lol
