How to choose the most suited and appropriate conference.

I have been viewing many conferences on both JISCMail and Conference Alerts and there is so many you can choose from. But how do we know which one is most suited? What methods does everyone use when choosing which conference to attend? One method I suggested was to look at where the most influential journals in your field presents an publishes. Is this a safe method?

Personally I go to ones where my topic of interest will be discussed and where I'm likely to learn something I haven't known before. I was an only student in the project I was doing and the only one in the department doing a project in that discipline so I found I learn a lot from the conferences I go to. Sometimes I'd meet people who've published papers on the topic I'm researching which is nice :)
