Well...I may have been one, but you were definitely the other one. I guess we must have thought we were actually there to share some helpful ideas with the people attending.

Yep, we were approached to do the roundtable on 'niche marketing,' but I think it was renamed because they thought more people would know what 'targeted' meant back then.

I think 'niche' became all the rage once everyone realized that "targeted" was just too damn easy to pronouce. Gotta love the new webmasters who either put a hard "i" in it (n-eye-ch) or think you need to hear the "e" (nich-eee).

P.S. And to keep this on topic, we're a small, single site sponsor program, and we do promote other sponsors on our free feeder sites. I've found we do better promoting small programs, and that usually the retention on revshare is better (as long as they have a good members area).
