The Vegas show was different this year.
First, Mandalay Bay is an awesome place to host the event. The convention center is absolutely HUGE, there could have been 15 more shows at the same time without running out of space!
Due to the higher prices, I did notice that fewer webmasters attended. By webmasters, I mean affiliate webmasters that push traffic to sponsors. Of course, all of the sponsors where there along with some brand new ones.
I think that newbies and midrange players are discouraged from the cost of the show. At the Vegas show you must pay extra for the seminars. So those that make the least have to pay the most to attend the show?!?
I really think charging for the seminars is bad policy. The seminars are really infomercials for the speakers. So newbies are paying for a generic sales pitch.
All of the fun is at the private parties. They are smaller, wilder, and you can actually get some biz done! The large parties are always overcrowded and loud!
