1,100 Phoenix Forum Attendees Registered

TEMPE, Ariz. — Registration has officially closed for the 2006 Phoenix Forum, Marketing Director Sherri Dosen said.

About 1,100 people have registered to attend the event, scheduled for March 30-April 1 in Tempe, Ariz. at the Tempe Mission Palms. The Forum, now entering its 7th year as one of the leading mid-size webmaster gatherings, will include panels and seminars, as well as various parties.

Registration began Jan. 9 and ended Feb. 1. Last year an estimated 950 webmasters and professionals affiliated with the industry attended the event, marking a significant increase from 2004’s 600 registered attendees.

This year, Dosen said it was necessary to close registration much earlier than expected in order to limit the number of attendees, which will help maintain a more intimate networking atmosphere for which the show has become known.

Dosen also said that maintaining a more manageable number of attendees helps to ensure that we are providing the best experience possible for those in attendance while providing sponsors with the quality exposure they have come to expect for their investment dollars.

“The event is funded completely by sponsor dollars, so we try not to put the burden on the attendees,” Dosen added. “We were really blown away by the support of our sponsors this year.”

Premium Sponsors for the Forum include Lightspeed, SexKey/Mansites, Sex Search, PussyCash, DeeCash, Adult.com, Met-Art, Nichebucks, AdultLocals.com and Silvercash.

Platinum Sponsors for the Forum include Epoch, WEG Cash, IWANTU, National Net, TopBucks, ARS, GammaCash, Bedfellow and Sapphiccash.

Gold Sponsors for the Forum include GigaCash, BadPuppy, PornMonkeyCash, Men's Magazine, Naked Sword, JustBlowMe, Pridebucks, DirtyBoyVideo.com, Discover Card, Smashbucks, YanksCash and CybernetExpo.
