Travel Bloggers Unite has been set up to facilitate networking and learning within the travel writing and social media industry.
This will be accomplished via the wesbite www.travelbloggersunite.com and a series of events.
As part of our first event we are putting a call out for speakers to take workshops.
The Event
A conference designed to bring together 200 to 300 travel bloggers, travel writers, travel industry professionals and social media enthusiasts to network and learn.
Date: Saturday 26th March to Sunday 27th March 2011
Location: thestudio located in the Hive building in the Northern Quarter, Manchester
Workshops
The workshop program will set this event aside from other 'comparable' events around the world. As such we are currently in the process of devising a conference program that offers a varied and extensive learning experience for delegates.
As well as keynotes and panel discussions, there will be 4 topics a day. These topics will last approx 1hr in length and repeat throughout the day, thus enabling delegates to visit each workshop.
Therefore speakers will be required to hold 4 x 1hr (approx) workshops.
There will be two key themes throughout the conference; 1) Content and 2) Marketing.
The following are some example topic ideas we intend to / would like to cover at the event. They are intentionally vague a we'd expect to work with you, the experts taking the workshops to develop the topics in more detail.
1) Content
- Podcasting
- Videos : Production, Marketing etc . .
- SEO Copy Writing
2) Marketing
- Twitter + Facebook For Brands
- Search Engine Optimisation
- Blog Design
- Site Monetization
What Next
We would like to hear from anyone who feels they would be able to hold a workshop on a particular topic.
Initially we ask that people contact Oliver Gradwell on oliver@iwishtravel.co.uk or 07818 297838 if you have any questions and to discuss matters further.
Many thanks
