UPCOMING WORKSHOP: Blogging for Beginners

There's now less than a month to sign up for my next Blog Workshop! 

Blogging for Beginners (& Improvers) will take place on 

Saturday 27th October.

It's a 3.5 hour information-packed workshop ideal for those who have yet to begin a blog or for those who want to improve on what they have started. 

The workshop will give you the chance to develop your blog idea, learn the tools to set it up, keep it interesting, promote it, and gain a readership. I will share with you all the do's and don't I've learnt over the last 4 years of blogging.

Below is a rough guideline of what we'll cover:

Introduction to Blogging 

Online vs Offline

Inspiration - Analysis of Material
The Blog Post - do's & don'ts

The Big Idea – Group discussion; exercises to develop your idea

Set it up – Blog platform, layout, design, style...

Content – multimedia, changing content, linking, widgets 

Building an Audience – tools for marketing your blog

Social Networking – Facebook, Twitter

There will be handouts to take away so you won’t have to remember everything!

If you've been meaning to start a blog for a long time, why put it off any longer? Come along to a friendly, fun and informative workshop!
