Going To The July XBiz Show In Vegas? What Seminars/Workshops Would You Like To See?

[Licker4U]

I'm afraid I can't make it but some possible workshops might be:

1. Benefits of incorporating and when should I?
2. Is there any insurance a webmaster should consider and reasons for getting it and who provides it.
3. How to make money in porn.
4. How to move up from "small fry" status to "one of the big boys".
5. Should I start my own paysite - benefits and pitfalls.
6. How to get first page listings in Google.
7. How to get submits for Girls That Squirt and Hairy Pussy Links

I use a really antiquated blog program called pm manager, and for all my coding, I don't know how to do wordpress, or any other blog software.

I'd love to see a blog 101 with step by step set-up for someone setting up a blog on their own server as opposed to using thumblogger or one of those.

I agree about the Press Release one. It was very good and informative as to what and what not to send.

I think it might be helpful to have a "drilled" down workshops on several topics. such as: What is a Linklist. What is a Hub. What is a TGP. Because truthfully people who visit the "baby" board (and others) have no clue to what goes into to having and making a successful freesite and submitting to a variety of linklists. They don't know about hubs. Etc and more etc.

Also I think that a very good one would be the taking advantage of Web 2.0. Is it worth the time to update myspace/facebook/youtube or how to make using those sites successful even with the limited amount of skin to be sold.

and a big one that really should be addressed is "How to work Successfully From Home." such as how to schedule time, how to allocate resources etc. So many people (including me) get easily distracted and even though they have good intentions, get off track.

I think Holly is on to a good topic
Adult Webmastering From Home
Setting up the home office (the best advice I think I ever got from you was “buy a good chair”)
Record keeping
Focus
Balancing family and business
Software/Scripts
Avoiding burnout
and a big fat handout with a bunch of useful URL's and supporting documentation, because we love a good handout

I won't be able to confirm if I can make it until the end of May but if I do I would be more than happy to sit down with you and anyone else for a couple of hours and do an unofficial Blog 101 type of thing.

I clicked the link above for info on the Summer Forum and got a page with one zero on it. The XBiz link didn't have anything on their calendar. Where can I get info on the show?
