It was a huge success thanks to all of the hard work by Tyler Hurst and Yuri Artibise, all of the contributing presenters and attendees. My particular contribution was a presentation on an introduction to blogging. It was a basic overview of some of the key points to consider before one begins taking up blogging. The presentation touched on questions to ask when considering a topic or domain name, some of the pros and cons of joining a blog network, traffic tips and an example of how those tips can be applied.  You can see it below or you can check it out on SlideShare.

I just wanted to let you all know that I will be speaking this weekend for a community event that is focused on helping local individuals familiarize themselves with internet technology. The event is called CenPhoCamp and the best part about it, is that it will only cost you food or drink for you and the other guests. They also ask is that you are registered so that they can accommodate for the attendees. Information on how many 2 liter bottles of Cactus Cooler that you need to bring can be found on the registration page.

The following is a summary of the information that I will be speaking about:

“The introduction to blogging will cover information on some of the tips and techniques that you can use to get your blog up and running with full steam. From choosing your domain name to marketing your blog, this presentation will provide you with all of the information that you need to get your blog started on the right foot. Picking the right blogging platform will be reviewed, in addition to tips and tricks to improving your blog’s traffic and visibility. Questions will also be presented to help prospective bloggers identify on whether or not a blog is right for them. This presentation will be geared to new and prospective bloggers and promises to provide relevant information for them.”

There is another presentation focusing on the business aspect. My presentation is more of a general overview than business focused. Regardless, I would love to see any and all of you that can make it. The event schedule for CenPhoCamp can also be found on their website.
