The next Big Show: Domain Round Table

March 14, 2008 by Michael Berkens

The next big domain even is set for The Domain Roundtable from April 18th-21, in San Francisco California at the Shertaton Place Hotel.

Among the actives and speakers planed are: (from Domainroundtable.com site)

Matt Cutts who is known in the SEC community as the most visible enforcer behind the Google Webmaster Guidelines.

Matt is a great source of all things Google and most importantly he is an expert on Google Search Engine Algorithms.

He literally wrote some of the original Google algorithms and he is listed on several Google patents.

We will be hosting a “Matt at the Roundtable – Question and Answer session” where he will be answering questions that people send in prior to the event.

If you want to ask Matt a question please email them to mattcutts@domainroundtable.com

Saturday, April 19 the roundtable will host the Gamble for Good event.

Domain RoundTable with TrafficZ and Grassroots.org will give attendees exclusive access to Club 443, San Francisco’s hottest nighttime spot. With a full open bar, craps, cards, roulette, and music by San Francisco’s favorite DJ Matteo, guests can get down to some risky business without chancing a loss.

All proceeds from the evening go directly to Grassroots.org, the tech industry’s leading charity organization.

Casino games and raffles will be provided. Prize packages, totaling nearly $10,000 so far, include:

  • One year of VO1000 Phone.com Subscriptions ($39.88 per month value)
  • 20 hours of SEO consulting from SEO.com (value of $5000)
  • One-year DomainTools.com Gold Membership (valued at $292)
  • Domain Roundtable Future Conference registration (valued at $1000)
  • 20 hours of web design by Graphics.net ($2000 value)
  • Black Sabbath autographed CD ($150 value)
  • Shania Twain autographed lyrics (value of $100)
  • Rick Reilly autographed books ($60 each, $200 for collection)

Any attendees who register on or before Friday, April 17th will be recognized on the Grassroots.org website with a text-based link!

Interested in donating prizes or funds? Please contact support@grassroots.org for details.

On Monday April 21st, Domain Roundtable will hold a live domain auction with remote bidding access.
