I am a regular on many popular ESL websites and I must say I am yet to see an ad on any about a seminar, workshop or conference. Even forums like the one we have here on eslhq are rare to find on ESL websites. Most prefer to focus on Jobs, printable worksheets, games, etc.
Strange! Kind of...
That's pretty much what people are looking for when they hit the web, jobs, printable worksheets, games, etc.

Japan has JALT conferences twice a year, I think. I haven't been to one yet because I'm too busy with other work and there was an annual ESP medical conference held in China last year.

They're around and publicised but to be honest not on the more popular forums. Those organizations aren't lead by one person (who would generally use forums and other simple methods) and advertisement usually goes via they're mailing list (snail mail and email to their members.)

My suggestion is to join local organizations and then you'll hear more about conferences and activities going on.
