Learning with @TheBlogWorkshop

When I attended the Blog Better Boston summit in April, I learned quite a few things from fellow bloggers, from how to best use my camera for photos (which I don't do enough of) to how to create a media kit. One big takeaway for me was how important it is to incorporate legal policies into a blog, especially for promotions and privacy. There's a workshop entirely devoted to "Blogging Laws You Should Know", led by an attorney and fellow blogger, over at The Blog Workshop on July 24 (see video below for more details).

If you're a fellow blogger, make sure you sign up for The Blog Workshop's community, where you can visit forums and discuss topics like using SEO for your blog or monetizing your blog (topics I've noticed come up a lot). You can also join their TBW University for a year-long program on blogging, which would be especially valuable if you blog for small business.

I'm taking advantage of the information available over at The Blog Workshop and will post again with some of my key takeaways.

 

I was given complimentary access to The Blog Workshop's 2013 conference, but all opinions are my own.

#BBBos Blogging Summit Recap

On Saturday I took a short break from family things and headed over to the Blog Better Boston summit, held at the Boston.com offices. 

I'm no model, but I was forced into the step & repeat to show off my dressed up denim. I only look slightly uncomfortable here.

Things I love: MK tortoiseshell watch and MK bag, Seychelles booties

white blazer from The Loft, Lucky Brand jeans from Lord and Taylor, coral lace top from Marshall's, ModCloth necklace, name plate necklace from Etsy

MiniLuxe manis? Yes, please.

This is my learning pose. (Sidenote: My hair is really long, isn't it?)
