BlogWorld Expo - Day 1 Photos & Recap

Today was the first day of BlogWorld Expo in Las Vegas. Last night was really great, I met up with some friends, Jim Kukral, Wade Tonkin, Sam Harrelson and Joel Comm and we went out for dinner at PF Chang’s in the Planet Hollywood Casino. After dinner we headed over to the Wynn Casino for a fancy get together party hosted by Brian Littleton and Shareasale. It was great to meet up with new people and put faces to names. It’s a whole different atmosphere compared to Affiliate Summit or AdTech.

I attended two sessions today and they were both great. The first was, “Smart Ways to Monetize Your Blog”, which consisted of a few different speakers. I was mainly interested in seeing Jeremy Schoemaker and Brian Clark, but unfortunately Brian was unable to make it because he had come down with the flu. Jeremy’s session was awesome, he even dropped my name as a reference to WidgetBucks during his open Q & A.

The next session I went to was “Good to Great: Blogging & Profit Potential”, which was hosted by Jim Kukral. As always Jim delivered another great presentation, some of the topics he covered included how other blogs are making money and how everyone should be tapping into the money to be made with online videos.

Here are a few pictures from the event so far:

John Chow and I finally got to meet up!

Nate Whitehill and his Blog Design Team exhibiting at the Event

It was cool to meet up with Darin Carter too!

There was even some crazy bunny I had to get a picture with!

There are still a lot of things going on and I need to upload a bunch more pictures. Keep coming back for more updates! Here are a few more pictures from the Evil Man himself, John Chow.

    Jealous as well. I’m stuck at a whole different conference (NACS) in Atlanta due to my day job. And since you obviously want to know my opinion, Atlanta sucks as a place to visit. Especially compared to Vegas.

    Son of a B! Chow is a big dude. Now that is something I wouldn’t say in person. But on a blog comment? Sure!
