One of the biggest boosts I have gotten in my Internet marketer career happened when I started attending online Internet marketing conferences. It it something I find myself constantly recommending to other marketers no matter what their experience level is.
I thought I would make a post listing some of my favorite online Internet marketing conferences that I try to attend as often as possible.
These conferences are all free!
These are not sales calls. I always tell people that in these conferences there is no hype, no bs, and nobody will ever try to sell you anything. It’s just a good place to network with other marketers and get the help you need from the people who are actually successful in this business.
Participation is totally optional. If you want to ask questions and get involved in the conversation you will definitely get the most out of the experience. However, if you would prefer to hang back and just observe what goes on you are more than welcome to do that too.
Affiliate Funnel
When: Every Saturday @ Noon EST
Hosts: William Brandt and Paul Kinder
Where: http://www.hotconference.com/conference,82001688
This was the conference that started it for me. Affiliate Funnel brings to the table a wide variety of great guest speakers every week from around the industry. The discussions are usually followed by an open q&a session where participants are free to ask any questions they have. This is one of the largest weekly conferences I attend with dozens of big name program owners in attendance every week. After the conference is over is not unusual to find owners offering incredible credit deals on their sites. You would be amazed at the kind of deals you can find just from attending this one conference every week. Highly recommended.
TimTech (T3)
When: Every Monday @ 7:00 PM EST
Hosts: Jon Olson, Tim Linden, and Justin Ledvina
Where: http://www.trafficexchangelive.com/room.php
This was formerly the conference to support TE Toolbox but with the recent forming of TimTech this conference is now covering all of their businesses under one umbrella. This includes TE Toolbox, Sweeva, Adkreator, Click Track Profit, I Love Hits, and StartXchange. The discussions are not limited to just these programs and often cover things like social networking, personal branding, list building, and starting an online business.
Tezak Traffic Power
When: 1st and 3rd Wednesday @ 6:30 PM EST
Hosts: Tony Tezak
Where: http://www.hotconference.com/conference,ttpchat
This is mostly a conference dedicated to members of Tezak Traffic Power traffic exchange. You will find lots of great information here about how to get the most out of using free traffic exchanges to promote your sites. Plenty of prizes are given away to attendees making this a very fun a conference to attend.
SWAT Traffic
When: Every Wednesday @ 8:00 PM EST
Hosts: James Holmes
Where: http://swattraffic.com/seminarroom.html
Another traffic exchange related conference room presented by SWAT Traffic. Here you will find a wider discussions about the traffic exchange industry as a whole and discover lots of new ways to improve your online business.
Get Referrals Fast
When: Every Thursday @ 8:00 PM EST
Hosts: Mike Paetzold and Jerry Reeder
Where: http://www.hotconference.com/conference,81842117
The Get Referrals Fast conferences are a more structured than some of the others listed above. These conferences are serious online training classes covering everything from list building, traffic generation, content creation, and all the nitty gritty details of running a successful online business. This is some of the best online training you will find and the fact that it is given away for free makes this well worth attending every week.
Traffic Exchange Live
When: Every Weekday @ 4:00 PM EST
Hosts: Jon Olson, Tim Linden, and Justin Ledvina
Where: http://www.trafficexchangelive.com
This one is probably my favorite. It is much less structured than the other conferences. We often joke that we discuss everything here except business. That’s not really true because TE Live is really more of a daily 1-hour peek into the lives of some of the more successful online business owners. You would be surprised how much you can learn about running an online business just from “hanging out” with the people who are doing it. Highly recommended.
