If you didn’t like Scary SEO then you definitely will not like IM Springbreak. IM Springbreak is going to be held at the same place in Ft. Lauderdale, FL on April 2-4. This is not going to be an exciting event and here are 7 reasons why you don’t want to attend.

1. You will realize that Dave Snyder is actually not a human and is a bear.

2. You own 456,000,000$ worth of domain names. You don’t need to try in life anymore – it is effectively game over. Therefore attending the conference and learning a ton is not priority.

3.  You have to listen to me speak about things that don’t get regurgitated in the blogosphere.

4.  You get nervous when getting ridiculously unique, great answers about your current internet marketing initiatives, from A list experts that would never give you the light of day at a large impersonal conference.

5.  You are allergic to fun.

6. Because you think the bacon explosion on your computer screen will taste better by licking the screen than in person eating it from the creator himself, TheMadHat.

7. You enjoy spending 2,455$ to attend large conferences, and frankly having to spend 500$ to see
Chris Winfield – Kenny Hyder – Greg Finn – Brent Csutoras – Reg Saddler – Todd Mailcoat – Neal Rodriguez  – Li Evans – Jeff Quipp – Brian Chappell  – Carolyn Shelby – Wil Reynolds – Rhea Drysdale – Steve Plunkett – Rae Hoffman – Michael Streko – Aaron Chronister – Frank Watson  – Brandy Eddings – David Szetela – Chris Hart – Pamela Lund and  Tony Adam irritates you.

With that said I definitely do not want to see the following people at the event. Whatever you do guys – do not show up!

Martin Bowling
Scott Hendison
Joanna Lord
Taylor Pratt
Ben Cook aka Skittzo
Pat Sexton
Dave Rohrer
Scott Clark
Kid Disco
Dan Zarella
Kate Morris
Lisa Barone
Eric Lander
Rick Galan
Wiep
Nick Andron
Dan Perry
DJ Litten

If this post thoroughly confused you then read this.

If you are in the Raleigh area, and want to discuss advanced SEO and SEM tactics, I encourage you to come out. I am holding the first of hopefully many more Advanced SEO meetups. We are holding the first session on Wednesday April 16 from 7pm to 9pm at the Carolina Ale House (Brier Creek Location).

The idea is to get together and share ideas, tactics and tricks that are working in the world of organic search optimization and paid optimization. SEO/SEM 101 is left at the door. This is the place to share in depth tactics that are working, and working well.

Feel free to signup over at spongecell for the Raleigh SEO Meeting. http://spongecell.com/event_page/view/594997

I have decided to scour the web for a collection of post 2007 PubCon write ups, in case you missed it. Some of these are better then others but each one is worth checking out.
