Austin, TX (PRWeb) November 28, 2006 -- More than 2,100 attendees packed into the Las Vegas Convention Center to hear keynotes from Guy Kawasaki, Jon S. von Tetchner, John Battelle and Danny Sullivan, and more than 40 conference sessions at WebmasterWorld's PubCon. Hailed a great success by the attendees, exhibitors and sponsors, the event is now set firmly as a major conference for Search Engine and Internet Marketing.
Brett Tabke, PubCon's organizer and WebmasterWorld's CEO said, "Our biggest and best conference broke our records for attendees and delivered an extensive program of sessions with top speakers from the leading businesses around the globe. Huge numbers of onsite sign ups meant registration lines snaked down the entrance hall and back around again. At an emergency planning meeting we pulled a Woodstock-like 'it's a free keynote dudes' and just let people gate crash so they would not miss the keynote."
Brett continued, "From the kick off keynote by Guy Kawasaki it was standing room only, and three full days of sessions ranged from top shelf, advanced content through to entry-level material, all of which gave us kudos from attendees."
"Day two was jump started by old friend John Battelle and kept the event cranking with a special lunch time session by Yahoo Search Marketing. The day was capped off with jam packed - 'sardine-can-like' reception by Google."
"Day three featured a keynote by SearchEngineWatch's Danny Sullivan and two afternoon Super Sessions."
"Ask.com sponsored two different afternoon cocktail receptions, and, overall, we had reports of no less than six other parties arranged by various exhibitors and sponsors throughout the week."
"Finally, PubCon was wrapped up with another excellent networking event in the 'Nine Fine Irishmen' pub in New York New York Hotel and Resort."
"Get your calendar ready as we'll do the whole thing again in Las Vegas, November 2007, so, make a note and we'll look forward to seeing you there," Brett concluded.
