Some threads are simply he said/she said preference arguments, as opposed to contructive discussions about the value of implementing certain features or changes. There&#8217;s no direct connection between the Ideas forum and Trac.</p>\n<p>WordPress is an open source project, successful because of the community that both develops and uses it. At the same time, some people find it difficult to become involved in the project, and are unsure of how to engage with the core team and community at large. The channels listed above can be overwhleming to someone just joining the community, and/or frustrating to longtime community members who feel like they used to have more influence. We need to fix this. The WordPress project needs to be welcoming, easy to navigate as a contributor, and provide useful feedback to help grow the expertise of its community members.</p>\n<p>I think we should figure this out together. You, members of this community, know how you feel about the communication channels available to you. You probably have ideas about how to make it better. Some of you may even have sketched out digrams of systems that you think would work better.  Link Ideas to Trac? Change the Ideas rating algorithm? Close Trac tickets that don&#8217;t get resolved within a certain period of time? Just do everything through Trac? What do you think? What would make it easier for you to keep up with development progress and get involved with the varius contribution opportunities? I *know* you have an opinion.</p>\n<p>Over the next few weeks, we&#8217;ll be gathering your input about how we can improve communication and participation, and then we&#8217;ll embark on a project to fix/create a system for collecting ideas, opinions and feedback that will allow WordPress to grow as an inclusive community. Here&#8217;s the plan: Gather ideas from people via IRC, forums, live chats, surveys, etc. Assemble a small group of interested parties to help figure out possible approaches, put suggested approaches to a community vote. If redesigning something (like the Ideas forum) is deemed necessary, utilize community designers to create layouts. Beta test it to see if it does work as hoped. Launch and make everyone happy with the new, improved communication/ideas/feedback system!</p>\n<p><strong>Up First</strong></p>\n<p>Use <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/269201\">this forum thread</a> to post your suggestions about this. What do you think needs to be changed or improved? How would you structure it? How do the existing channels fit into your suggestion?</p>\n<p>On Tuesday, May 12 at 21:00 UTC (5pm New York time), hop into the #wordpress-dev IRC channel (irc.freenode.com) and talk about your suggestions for how to improve communication. I&#8217;ll be there, taking notes and answering questions, and asking follow-up questions when someone pitches a good idea. An hour later, I&#8217;ll be joining the <a href=\"http://wordcastpodcast.com/\">WordCast Podcast</a> to talk about this issue. <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">They&#8217;re trying to set up a call-in format; if that pans out, we&#8217;ll post the call-in info in the dev channel.

You, members of this community, know how you feel about the communication channels available to you. You probably have ideas about how to make it better. Some of you may even have sketched out digrams of systems that you think would work better.  Link Ideas to Trac? Change the Ideas rating algorithm? Close Trac tickets that don&#8217;t get resolved within a certain period of time? Just do everything through Trac? What do you think? What would make it easier for you to keep up with development progress and get involved with the varius contribution opportunities? I *know* you have an opinion.</p>\n<p>Over the next few weeks, we&#8217;ll be gathering your input about how we can improve communication and participation, and then we&#8217;ll embark on a project to fix/create a system for collecting ideas, opinions and feedback that will allow WordPress to grow as an inclusive community. Here&#8217;s the plan: Gather ideas from people via IRC, forums, live chats, surveys, etc. Assemble a small group of interested parties to help figure out possible approaches, put suggested approaches to a community vote. If redesigning something (like the Ideas forum) is deemed necessary, utilize community designers to create layouts. Beta test it to see if it does work as hoped. Launch and make everyone happy with the new, improved communication/ideas/feedback system!</p>\n<p><strong>Up First</strong></p>\n<p>Use <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/269201\">this forum thread</a> to post your suggestions about this. What do you think needs to be changed or improved? How would you structure it? How do the existing channels fit into your suggestion?</p>\n<p>On Tuesday, May 12 at 21:00 UTC (5pm New York time), hop into the #wordpress-dev IRC channel (irc.freenode.com) and talk about your suggestions for how to improve communication. I&#8217;ll be there, taking notes and answering questions, and asking follow-up questions when someone pitches a good idea. An hour later, I&#8217;ll be joining the <a href=\"http://wordcastpodcast.com/\">WordCast Podcast</a> to talk about this issue. <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">They&#8217;re trying to set up a call-in format; if that pans out, we&#8217;ll post the call-in info in the dev channel. Otherwise, </span> A call-in number has been set up through TalkShoe.</p>\n<p>1-724-444-7444<br />\nMeeting ID: 50127<br />\nPin (if you don&#8217;t have a TalkShoe account): enter 1#</p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll also read off suggestions being made in the dev channel and discuss them.</p>\n<p>More opportunities to weigh in on this issue to come. Also, further investigation into the similarities between the core devs and Charlie&#8217;s Angels. <img src=\'http://wordpress.org/development/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif\' alt=\':)\' class=\'wp-smiley\' /> </p>\n\";}i:4;a:13:{s:5:\"title\";s:54:\"Contributing to WordPress, Part III: Usability Testing\";s:4:\"link\";s:54:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/05/testing-opps/\";s:8:\"comments\";s:63:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/05/testing-opps/#comments\";s:7:\"pubdate\";s:31:\"Mon, 04 May 2009 13:57:13 +0000\";s:2:\"dc\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";s:10:\"Jane Wells\";}s:8:\"category\";s:25:\"DevelopmentUser Interface\";s:4:\"guid\";s:39:\"http://wordpress.org/development/?p=724\";s:11:\"description\";s:336:\"One of the reasons WordPress 2.7 was such a success is the amount of usability testing that took place during the development cycle.

First, determine the scope of your test and create a test protocol/script. Determine the audience segments to be included in the test group(s), and begin recruiting. Recruiting may mean hiring an agency to find participants, but for testing WordPress, it makes more sense to recruit from within this community, so that means making a screening survey, reading all the responses, segmenting the respondents into categories and contacting people until you&#8217;ve filled your desired quotas (for whatever segments you&#8217;re seeking, such as newbie, experienced user, developer, CMS user, photoblogger, mobile user, etc. ).

When the sessions are complete, the results are analyzed. All the notes and videos are reviewed, patterns are identified, and ultimately a report is written and the feedback informs the next round of revisions.</p>\n<p>Some people think it shouldn&#8217;t take much time to do all this. I&#8217;ve lost count of the number of people who cite <a href=\"http://www.useit.com/alertbox/20000319.html\">an old article by Jakob Nielsen</a> that says you don&#8217;t need to test with more than 5 users because usability issues become clear right away. While I&#8217;ve found that to be generally true, when your user base is as diverse in experience level, usage, platform  configuration, language (right to left languages have a pretty different experience) and demography as the WordPress community is, 5 users really isn&#8217;t enough to get a clear picture. We try to test with at least a dozen people each round, but then we are limited to a geographic region (test in NY, test in SF, or test wherever we can schedule enough people back to back to make it worthwhile), while WordPress users are located all over the globe.</p>\n<p>To address this, we&#8217;re introducing a set of new contribution opportunities to expand our usability testing program. As with development and graphic design, we&#8217;re going to create an infrastructure to allow community participation in usability testing on a regular basis and in a much broader capacity than existed before, when it was limited to announcements that we needed participants in <em>x</em> city on <em>y</em> date. We&#8217;ll be looking for volunteer moderators as well as participants, hopefully from all over the world.</p>\n<p><strong>Moderators.</strong> Observational usability testing isn&#8217;t rocket science, but neither is it a simple task to reduce bias. Because of this, at first we&#8217;ll choose only moderators who have professional experience conducting usability tests. People who conduct testing for design agencies, software companies, usability consulting firms and the like will be our first round draft picks. In the future, when we have a group of regular volunteers and have ironed out any kinks in the process, we&#8217;ll ideally match up experienced testers with aspiring ones, using a mentorship model to increase the number of people who can contribute in this fashion.</p>\n<p><strong>Participants.</strong> If you use WordPress, chances are you could participant in a usability test at some point. In some cases we&#8217;re looking for particular behaviors (people who upload large video files, people who blog from their iPhone, people who manage more than 5 blogs, etc.), while other times the behaviors we&#8217;re looking for are much more common (do you have widgets in your sidebar, have you changed themes in the last 6 months, is there more than one author on your blog, etc.).</p>\n<p><strong>So how will these opportunities come into play, and how will it make WordPress better?</strong></p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll start with the moderators, and try to get volunteers with a decent geographic spread.

We&#8217;re working on a registration process for potential participants. You&#8217;ll enter your basic info (location, contact info) and answer some questions about your WordPress usage to be entered in the database, and when there&#8217;s a testing opportunity coming up that&#8217;s appropriate for you, a local moderator will get in touch to see if you&#8217;re interested.

What was most interesting for me was checking in on the votes over the course of the two days the poll was open. The top three (Fluency-dark, Current 2.7, MT) kept beating each other out for the #1 spot as they cycled back and forth through the top three slots, and had the poll closed on time (left it open a little longer in case anyone translated the time zone incorrectly), the order would have been a bit different.</p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more interesting to me is the overall style that seems to be preferred among voters, as Matt&#8217;s comp has some stylistic similarities to Dean&#8217;s (see image at left).

However we look at it, the Fluency-style designs clearly have a lot of fans. Then again, so do the designs of Matt Thomas (he&#8217;s behind the current style of 2.7, remember, in addition to the comp labeled MT). To give the interface the attention it is due, and to take seriously some of the interface feedback around usability and accessibility, we&#8217;re going to leave the looks alone for 2.8. It&#8217;s our guess that a revised style will make into 2.9 early in the development cycle to allow us plenty of time for user testing and revision. How close it winds up being to the comps submitted in this design tweaks challenge will depend, but in the meantime:</p>\n<p>Congratulations, <a href=\"http://deanjrobinson.com/\">Dean J.

If you want to comment on what you liked best and/or least about any of the designs, <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/support/topic/265261\">this thread</a> is a good place.</p>\n<p>So what happens now? However we look at it, the Fluency-style designs clearly have a lot of fans. Then again, so do the designs of Matt Thomas (he&#8217;s behind the current style of 2.7, remember, in addition to the comp labeled MT). To give the interface the attention it is due, and to take seriously some of the interface feedback around usability and accessibility, we&#8217;re going to leave the looks alone for 2.8. It&#8217;s our guess that a revised style will make into 2.9 early in the development cycle to allow us plenty of time for user testing and revision. How close it winds up being to the comps submitted in this design tweaks challenge will depend, but in the meantime:</p>\n<p>Congratulations, <a href=\"http://deanjrobinson.com/\">Dean J. Robinson</a>, on winning the vote!</p>\n\";}i:7;a:13:{s:5:\"title\";s:18:\"Design Tweaks Vote\";s:4:\"link\";s:60:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/04/design-tweaks-vote/\";s:8:\"comments\";s:69:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2009/04/design-tweaks-vote/#comments\";s:7:\"pubdate\";s:31:\"Tue, 28 Apr 2009 12:09:31 +0000\";s:2:\"dc\";a:1:{s:7:\"creator\";s:10:\"Jane Wells\";}s:8:\"category\";s:14:\"User Interface\";s:4:\"guid\";s:39:\"http://wordpress.org/development/?p=685\";s:11:\"description\";s:321:\"Comps for the header/nav design tweaks are in, and the results are mixed.

I&#8217;ve brought some friends with me as well.</p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve been talking with Automattic for some time now about the WordPress for iPhone application. About the project, the community and the passion behind it. We want the WordPress for iPhone application to be the best mobile blogging tool on the iPhone.</p>\n<p>I&#8217;d like to invite you into the thought process currently going on inside our collective heads.</p>\n<h2>Thinking Out Loud</h2>\n<p>First impressions count, it&#8217;s what I&#8217;d like to focus on right now. When you open WordPress for the first time you&#8217;re greeted with this screen:</p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-369\" title=\"home screen\" src=\"http://wpiphone.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/home-screen.png?w=320&#038;h=480\" alt=\"home screen\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" /></p>\n<p>You have two options:</p>\n<ol>\n<li> &#8220;Set up your blog&#8221;</li>\n<li> &#8220;About WordPress for iPhone&#8221;</li>\n</ol>\n<p>The second option is interesting, but I&#8217;m not sure why it gets equal billing on the home screen when all anyone wants to do the first time they open the application is to set up their blog.</p>\n<p>The &#8220;Add Blog&#8221; screen should be shown by default if you haven&#8217;t already added one:</p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-368\" title=\"add a blog\" src=\"http://wpiphone.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/add-a-blog.png?w=320&#038;h=480\" alt=\"add a blog\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" /></p>\n<p>Speaking of which, the cursor should already be placed in the &#8220;Blog URL&#8221; field and the keyboard should be displayed. There shouldn&#8217;t be an option to cancel as the application is unusable without at least one blog present.</p>\n<p>The &#8220;Save&#8221; button should be disabled until the &#8220;Blog URL&#8221;, &#8220;User Name&#8221; and &#8220;Password&#8221; fields have been filled in. They keyboards return key should say &#8220;Next&#8221; instead of &#8220;Done&#8221;, it should jump into the next field I need to fill in.</p>\n<p>It should change to &#8220;Done&#8221; only when I&#8217;ve entered all the required fields. At the same time the &#8220;Save&#8221; button should become enabled. In fact the &#8220;Save&#8221; button should probably read &#8220;Done&#8221; as well. Something like this:</p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-371\" title=\"saving\" src=\"http://wpiphone.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/saving.png?w=320&#038;h=480\" alt=\"saving\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" /></p>\n<p>When I&#8217;m done, I want useful feedback. Currently there is a spinning icon in the top right hand corner where the &#8220;Save&#8221; button used to be. But the keyboard is still present unless I hid it while entering my details. For all intents and purposes this screen still looks like it&#8217;s in an editable state. Except the application doesn&#8217;t respond at all!  As a user, I require a clear indication of what is happening, otherwise confusion ensues, so we&#8217;ll fix that too.</p>\n<p>After I click &#8220;Done&#8221; I&#8217;m back on the home screen. Why is that? Rather than adding another blog, it seems much more likely to us that you&#8217;ll want to start using the app to manage the blog you just added, so we&#8217;ll show the &#8220;Posts/Pages/Comments&#8221; screen instead.  You can add the rest of your blogs later.</p>\n<h3>Moving Forward</h3>\n<p>As you can see we&#8217;ve been doing a lot of thinking, scrutinising and playing with ideas.

Right now we&#8217;re still crawling, but here&#8217;s a sneak peak into the changes that we&#8217;ve got planned for the future:</p>\n<h3>User Interface Overhaul</h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Home Screen</li>\n<li>Adding a Blog</li>\n<li>Editing a Blog</li>\n<li>Removing a Blog</li>\n<li>Change blog screen to use tab-bar navigation</li>\n<li>Changing the way local drafts work and are represented</li>\n</ol>\n<h3>Comment Moderation</h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Activity Dashboard &#8211; Stream of consciousness for activity on a given blog</li>\n<li>Ability to quickly approve/delete/mark as spam</li>\n</ol>\n<h3>Statefulness</h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Remember which blog I was working in.

I&#8217;ll be there, so be sure and find me for a hug.</p>\n<p>That&#8217;s part of the joy and difference between a WordPress event and other social tech events. WordPressers serve up hugs, not just hand shakes. What I hear over and over again at these events is how we all <em>know</em> each other, so meeting face to face is just another step in the relationship process that began a few months to a few years ago. We&#8217;re already friends!</p>\n<p>This year so far it has been my honor to be included and speaking at a variety of WordCamp events including <a title=\"WordCamp Las Vegas\" href=\"http://lasvegaswordcamp.com/\">WordCamp Las Vegas</a>, <a title=\"WordCamp Whistler 2009\" href=\"http://wordcampwhistler.com/\">WordCamp Whistler</a>, <a title=\"WordCamp Toronto\" href=\"http://phug.ca/wordcamptoronto\">WordCamp Toronto</a>, and <a title=\"WordCamp Columbus\" href=\"http://www.wordcampcolumbus.com/\">WordCamp Columbus</a>, and you will probably find me rattling around <a title=\"WordCamp Dallas\" href=\"http://dallas.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp Dallas</a>, <a title=\"WordCamp Portland\" href=\"http://www.wordcampportland.com/\">WordCamp Portland</a>, <a title=\"WordCamp Seattle\" href=\"http://www.wordcampseattle.org/\">WordCamp Seattle</a>, <a title=\"WordCamp NL\" href=\"http://wordcampnl.org/\">Netherlands &#8211; WordCamp NL</a>, WordCamp Israel, and WordCamp/Podcamp Hawaii.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/img_49341.jpg\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/img_49341.jpg?w=300&#038;h=224\" alt=\"img_49341 - WordCamp Las Vegas - photography by Lorelle VanFossen\" title=\"img_49341 - WordCamp Las Vegas - photography by Lorelle VanFossen\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-3742\" /></a>According to the <a title=\"WordPress Meetup Groups\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/\">WordPress Meetup Groups</a> on Meetup.com, there are 32 Meetup Groups focused specifically on WordPress, representing 3,394 Members in 5 different countries among 32 Meetup groups in 28 different cities.

Some of these have had or are about to have a WordCamp event, so why aren&#8217;t there regular WordPress meetups?</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/wordcampmeetups-map.jpg\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/wordcampmeetups-map.jpg?w=300&#038;h=263\" alt=\"WordCamp Meetups Map at Meetups.com\" title=\"WordCamp Meetups Map at Meetups.com\" width=\"300\" height=\"263\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4101\" /></a><a title=\"WordPress Meetup Groups\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/\">WordPress Meetup Groups</a> on Meetup.com offers a map of all the places where there are WordPress events and activities and where ones are wanted. You can <a title=\"browse all cities\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/cities/\">browse a list of cities hosting WordPress events</a> or go directly to your region to find out where one is or who might be interested in putting one together.</p>\n<h3>What is the Difference Between a WordPress Meetup and WordCamp?</h3>\n<p>A WordPress Meetup is a frequent meeting of WordPress fans. If you would like to start a WordPress Meetup group, find a meeting place and announce it among your friends, and add a listing to the <a title=\"Event search for wordpress\" href=\"http://upcoming.yahoo.com/search/?type=Events&amp;q=wordpress\">Yahoo Upcoming events for WordPress</a> and <a title=\"WordPress upcoming events\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/events/upcoming/\">WordPress Meetups Upcoming Events</a> and tag them &#8220;WordPress Events&#8221; and &#8220;WordPress&#8221;, as many track WordPress event announcements there.</p>\n<p>A WordPress Meetup allows locals to get together and learn from each other on how to use WordPress. There are formal WordPress meetups and informal ones, covering nothing but WordPress or including WordPress as part of other topics on web publishing and social media. WordPress meetups are usually held monthly or quarterly. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/img_49361.jpg\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/img_49361.jpg?w=300&#038;h=224\" alt=\"img_49361 - WordPress Las Vegas - photography by Lorelle VanFossen\" title=\"img_49361 - WordPress Las Vegas - photography by Lorelle VanFossen\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-3744\" /></a>A WordCamp is a day or two long event with sponsors and dozens if not hundreds of WordPress fans gathering annually. WordCamp Toronto was the first, I believe, to have a three day WordCamp event, but there are no rules. It differs from a WordPress Meetup because it is offered rarely instead of regularly.</p>\n<p>WordCamps were originally formatted on the Barcamp structure, loosely put together, grassroots gatherings of WordPress fans in a day long unconference style. While this works for some communities familiar with the unconference style, some stick with a more traditional conference format. </p>\n<p>While a WordPress Meetup can cover any topics of interest to their members, a WordCamp event is focused on WordPress for the majority of the programs and workshops.</p>\n<p>Many distinguish the two events based upon the length and speakers. WordPress Meetups tend to last a few hours where WordCamps are day long events. The speakers at WordCamps can come from your region or around the world. </p>\n<h3>How Do I Start a WordCamp or WordPress Meetup?</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/cali-neal-talk.jpg\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/cali-neal-talk.jpg?w=300&#038;h=189\" alt=\"Cali and Neal talk about Video blogging with WordPress at WordCamp Dallas\" title=\"Cali and Neal talk about Video blogging with WordPress at WordCamp Dallas\" width=\"300\" height=\"189\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2458\" /></a>If you would like to sponsor or host a WordCamp, check out the new official site for tracking WordCamps is <a title=\"WordCamp Central\" href=\"http://central.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp Central</a>, which includes instructions and <a title=\"run your own WordCamp\" href=\"http://central.wordcamp.org/guidelines/\">guidelines for running a WordCamp</a>. There are also articles with tips and techniques for WordPress Meetups and WordCamps on <a title=\"The WordCamp Report\" href=\"http://wordcamp.info/\">The WordCamp Report</a>, as well as on blogs by those who have run these events.</p>\n<p>In general, you need to have a team of at least 5 active volunteers, a location and date, speakers, sponsors, and food or easy access to food. The rest of it is up to you.</p>\n<p>Get a free blog on <a title=\"WordPress.com free blogs\" rel=\"tag\" href=\"http://www.wordpress.com/\">WordPress.com</a> or host your own for the WordCamp, until WordCamp Central finishes setting up their WordPressMU blog network. Get a Twitter account and add a listing to the <a title=\"Event search for wordpress\" href=\"http://upcoming.yahoo.com/search/?type=Events&amp;q=wordpress\">Yahoo Upcoming events for WordPress</a> and <a title=\"WordPress upcoming events\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/events/upcoming/\">WordPress Meetups Upcoming Events</a> and tag them &#8220;WordPress Events&#8221; and &#8220;WordCamp. These are tracked by many WordPress fans around the world, many whom are willing to fly in to the various WordPress and WordCamp events.</p>\n<h3>How Do I Get WordPress Rock Stars to My WordPress Event?</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/mattm-johnp.jpg\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/mattm-johnp.jpg?w=245&#038;h=300\" alt=\"John Pozadzides and Matt Mullenweg at WordCamp Dallas\" title=\"John Pozadzides and Matt Mullenweg at WordCamp Dallas\" width=\"245\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2475\" /></a>While <a title=\"Matt Mullenweg\" rel=\"tag\" href=\"http://ma.tt/\">Matt Mullenweg</a>, myself, and other representatives of WordPress and <a title=\"Automattic - parent company of WordPress, WordPress.com, Akismet, BuddyPress, and more\" rel=\"tag\" href=\"http://www.automattic.com/\">Automattic</a> try to get to as many WordCamp and WordPress events as we can, look to your own neighborhood and community for your own WordPress experts and rock stars.</p>\n<p>Many think it helps to have a &#8220;big name&#8221; to help attract attendees. In some large cities it does, but promote the event as a chance to learn about how to use WordPress in your business or personal life, and you&#8217;d be stunned at the number of people who will show up, just because they love WordPress.</p>\n<p>To ask one of the press-o-rati, contact them through their blogs, email or Twitter accounts. To request someone officially from Automattic or WordPress, use the <a title=\"Contact Us\" href=\"http://central.wordcamp.org/contact-us/\">WordCamp Central contact form</a> and ask. You can be vague and invite whoever is willing to come, or be specific and request someone who is an expert in WordPress Themes, Plugins, BuddyPress, bbPress, PollDaddy, Intense Debate, or any of the other WordPress and Automattic specific features and services.</p>\n<p>I highly recommend you make your WordCamp and WordPress event about your community. WordCamp/Podcamp Hawaii brought in local social media experts, musicians, and tourist industry representatives familiar with WordPress to speak to attendees, giving them the local perspective that their community needs. WordCamp Toronto brought in members of the local art community to display interactive art work and held community competitions for the event logo, blog designs, and Plugins, involving as many people and groups as possible to make the event a social one. WordCamp San Francisco 2008 had a fund-raising event &#8220;Scavenger Hunt&#8221; for a local educational charity on the day after the WordCamp sessions.</p>\n<p>There are a lot of ways you can involve your community and help others blog and share their voice with the world and benefit your community in general. Make your WordPress event inclusive not exclusive</p>\n<p>To publicize your WordPress event or WordCamp, contact <a title=\"Contact Us\" href=\"http://central.wordcamp.org/contact-us/\">WordCamp Central</a>, <a title=\"The WordCamp Report\" href=\"http://wordcamp.info/\">The WordCamp Report</a>, <a title=\"Event search for wordpress\" href=\"http://upcoming.yahoo.com/search/?type=Events&amp;q=wordpress\">Yahoo Upcoming events for WordPress</a>, <a title=\"WordPress upcoming events\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/events/upcoming/\">WordPress Meetups Upcoming Events</a>, and Upcoming events tagged with &#8220;<a title=\"Upcoming: Public events tagged with \">WordCamp</a>&#8221;

Registration is closed at over 700 attendees for this one day event packed with a ton of the top blogging, social media, search engine, business, and WordPress experts. I&#8217;ll be there, so be sure and find me for a hug.</p>\n<p>That&#8217;s part of the joy and difference between a WordPress event and other social tech events. WordPressers serve up hugs, not just hand shakes. What I hear over and over again at these events is how we all <em>know</em> each other, so meeting face to face is just another step in the relationship process that began a few months to a few years ago. We&#8217;re already friends!</p>\n<p>This year so far it has been my honor to be included and speaking at a variety of WordCamp events including <a title=\"WordCamp Las Vegas\" href=\"http://lasvegaswordcamp.com/\">WordCamp Las Vegas</a>, <a title=\"WordCamp Whistler 2009\" href=\"http://wordcampwhistler.com/\">WordCamp Whistler</a>, <a title=\"WordCamp Toronto\" href=\"http://phug.ca/wordcamptoronto\">WordCamp Toronto</a>, and <a title=\"WordCamp Columbus\" href=\"http://www.wordcampcolumbus.com/\">WordCamp Columbus</a>, and you will probably find me rattling around <a title=\"WordCamp Dallas\" href=\"http://dallas.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp Dallas</a>, <a title=\"WordCamp Portland\" href=\"http://www.wordcampportland.com/\">WordCamp Portland</a>, <a title=\"WordCamp Seattle\" href=\"http://www.wordcampseattle.org/\">WordCamp Seattle</a>, <a title=\"WordCamp NL\" href=\"http://wordcampnl.org/\">Netherlands &#8211; WordCamp NL</a>, WordCamp Israel, and WordCamp/Podcamp Hawaii.</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/img_49341.jpg\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/img_49341.jpg?w=300&#038;h=224\" alt=\"img_49341 - WordCamp Las Vegas - photography by Lorelle VanFossen\" title=\"img_49341 - WordCamp Las Vegas - photography by Lorelle VanFossen\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-3742\" /></a>According to the <a title=\"WordPress Meetup Groups\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/\">WordPress Meetup Groups</a> on Meetup.com, there are 32 Meetup Groups focused specifically on WordPress, representing 3,394 Members in 5 different countries among 32 Meetup groups in 28 different cities.

are shouting out for one in their area. <a title=\"Copenhagen\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/cities/dk/copenhagen/\">Copenhagen</a> (61 interested), <a title=\"Philadelphia, PA\"

Some of these have had or are about to have a WordCamp event, so why aren&#8217;t there regular WordPress meetups?</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/wordcampmeetups-map.jpg\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/wordcampmeetups-map.jpg?w=300&#038;h=263\" alt=\"WordCamp Meetups Map at Meetups.com\" title=\"WordCamp Meetups Map at Meetups.com\" width=\"300\" height=\"263\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4101\" /></a><a title=\"WordPress Meetup Groups\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/\">WordPress Meetup Groups</a> on Meetup.com offers a map of all the places where there are WordPress events and activities and where ones are wanted. You can <a title=\"browse all cities\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/cities/\">browse a list of cities hosting WordPress events</a> or go directly to your region to find out where one is or who might be interested in putting one together.</p>\n<h3>What is the Difference Between a WordPress Meetup and WordCamp?</h3>\n<p>A WordPress Meetup is a frequent meeting of WordPress fans. If you would like to start a WordPress Meetup group, find a meeting place and announce it among your friends, and add a listing to the <a title=\"Event search for wordpress\" href=\"http://upcoming.yahoo.com/search/?type=Events&amp;q=wordpress\">Yahoo Upcoming events for WordPress</a> and <a title=\"WordPress upcoming events\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/events/upcoming/\">WordPress Meetups Upcoming Events</a> and tag them &#8220;WordPress Events&#8221; and &#8220;WordPress&#8221;, as many track WordPress event announcements there.</p>\n<p>A WordPress Meetup allows locals to get together and learn from each other on how to use WordPress. There are formal WordPress meetups and informal ones, covering nothing but WordPress or including WordPress as part of other topics on web publishing and social media. WordPress meetups are usually held monthly or quarterly. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/img_49361.jpg\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/img_49361.jpg?w=300&#038;h=224\" alt=\"img_49361 - WordPress Las Vegas - photography by Lorelle VanFossen\" title=\"img_49361 - WordPress Las Vegas - photography by Lorelle VanFossen\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-3744\" /></a>A WordCamp is a day or two long event with sponsors and dozens if not hundreds of WordPress fans gathering annually. WordCamp Toronto was the first, I believe, to have a three day WordCamp event, but there are no rules. It differs from a WordPress Meetup because it is offered rarely instead of regularly.</p>\n<p>WordCamps were originally formatted on the Barcamp structure, loosely put together, grassroots gatherings of WordPress fans in a day long unconference style. While this works for some communities familiar with the unconference style, some stick with a more traditional conference format. </p>\n<p>While a WordPress Meetup can cover any topics of interest to their members, a WordCamp event is focused on WordPress for the majority of the programs and workshops.</p>\n<p>Many distinguish the two events based upon the length and speakers. WordPress Meetups tend to last a few hours where WordCamps are day long events. The speakers at WordCamps can come from your region or around the world. </p>\n<h3>How Do I Start a WordCamp or WordPress Meetup?</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/cali-neal-talk.jpg\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/cali-neal-talk.jpg?w=300&#038;h=189\" alt=\"Cali and Neal talk about Video blogging with WordPress at WordCamp Dallas\" title=\"Cali and Neal talk about Video blogging with WordPress at WordCamp Dallas\" width=\"300\" height=\"189\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2458\" /></a>If you would like to sponsor or host a WordCamp, check out the new official site for tracking WordCamps is <a title=\"WordCamp Central\" href=\"http://central.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp Central</a>, which includes instructions and <a title=\"run your own WordCamp\" href=\"http://central.wordcamp.org/guidelines/\">guidelines for running a WordCamp</a>. There are also articles with tips and techniques for WordPress Meetups and WordCamps on <a title=\"The WordCamp Report\" href=\"http://wordcamp.info/\">The WordCamp Report</a>, as well as on blogs by those who have run these events.</p>\n<p>In general, you need to have a team of at least 5 active volunteers, a location and date, speakers, sponsors, and food or easy access to food. The rest of it is up to you.</p>\n<p>Get a free blog on <a title=\"WordPress.com free blogs\" rel=\"tag\" href=\"http://www.wordpress.com/\">WordPress.com</a> or host your own for the WordCamp, until WordCamp Central finishes setting up their WordPressMU blog network. Get a Twitter account and add a listing to the <a title=\"Event search for wordpress\" href=\"http://upcoming.yahoo.com/search/?type=Events&amp;q=wordpress\">Yahoo Upcoming events for WordPress</a> and <a title=\"WordPress upcoming events\" href=\"http://wordpress.meetup.com/events/upcoming/\">WordPress Meetups Upcoming Events</a> and tag them &#8220;WordPress Events&#8221; and &#8220;WordCamp. These are tracked by many WordPress fans around the world, many whom are willing to fly in to the various WordPress and WordCamp events.</p>\n<h3>How Do I Get WordPress Rock Stars to My WordPress Event?</h3>\n<p><a href=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/mattm-johnp.jpg\"><img src=\"http://lorelle.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/mattm-johnp.jpg?w=245&#038;h=300\" alt=\"John Pozadzides and Matt Mullenweg at WordCamp Dallas\" title=\"John Pozadzides and Matt Mullenweg at WordCamp Dallas\" width=\"245\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2475\" /></a>While <a title=\"Matt Mullenweg\" rel=\"tag\" href=\"http://ma.tt/\">Matt Mullenweg</a>, myself, and other representatives of WordPress and <a title=\"Automattic - parent company of WordPress, WordPress.com, Akismet, BuddyPress, and more\" rel=\"tag\" href=\"http://www.automattic.com/\">Automattic</a> try to get to as many WordCamp and WordPress events as we can, look to your own neighborhood and community for your own WordPress experts and rock stars.</p>\n<p>Many think it helps to have a &#8220;big name&#8221; to help attract attendees. In some large cities it does, but promote the event as a chance to learn about how to use WordPress in your business or personal life, and you&#8217;d be stunned at the number of people who will show up, just because they love WordPress.</p>\n<p>To ask one of the press-o-rati, contact them through their blogs, email or Twitter accounts. To request someone officially from Automattic or WordPress, use the <a title=\"Contact Us\" href=\"http://central.wordcamp.org/contact-us/\">WordCamp Central contact form</a> and ask. You can be vague and invite whoever is willing to come, or be specific and request someone who is an expert in WordPress Themes, Plugins, BuddyPress, bbPress, PollDaddy, Intense Debate, or any of the other WordPress and Automattic specific features and services.</p>\n<p>I highly recommend you make your WordCamp and WordPress event about your community. WordCamp/Podcamp Hawaii brought in local social media experts, musicians, and tourist industry representatives familiar with WordPress to speak to attendees, giving them the local perspective that their community needs. WordCamp Toronto brought in members of the local art community to display interactive art work and held community competitions for the event logo, blog designs, and Plugins, involving as many people and groups as possible to make the event a social one. WordCamp San Francisco 2008 had a fund-raising event &#8220;Scavenger Hunt&#8221; for a local educational charity on the day after the WordCamp sessions.</p>\n<p>There are a lot of ways you can involve your community and help others blog and share their voice with the world and benefit your community in general.

There are several ways to display your photosets and/or individual groups of photos and is very flexible to your design and layout. You will need a flickr API key to use this plugin and you can start that from the settings page of the plugin. </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/2009/05/flickrgalleryscreenshot.png\"><img title=\"flickrgalleryscreenshot\" border=\"0\" alt=\"flickrgalleryscreenshot\" src=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/b2-img/2009/05/flickrgalleryscreenshot-thumb.png\" width=\"244\" height=\"221\" /></a> </p>\n<p><a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/shashin/\">Shashin</a>: A plugin for displaying <a href=\"http://picasa.google.com/\">Picasa photos</a>.&#160; This plugin is so extensive and configurable that it has <a href=\"http://www.toppa.com/shashin_phpdoc/\">its own documentation site as well</a>.

It&#8217;s a great learning environment.</p>\n<p>The best kept secret about WordCamp is that the <a href=\"http://2009.sf.wordcamp.org/speakers/\">speaker line up</a> includes many technology and web luminaries &#8211; <a href=\"http://www.dullest.com/blog/\">Matt Cutts</a>, <a href=\"http://philip.greenspun.com/\">Philip Greenspun</a>, <a href=\"http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/\">Tim Ferriss</a>, <a href=\"http://www.horsepigcow.com/\">Tara Hunt</a> to name a few of the incredible speakers.</p>\n<p>Can you believe it is near free &#8212; the $25 cost doesn&#8217;t even cover the cost of the food. Thank you sponsors!</p>\n<p>Even if WordPress wasn&#8217;t your thing (shame!), if you&#8217;re in the web, it should be a must attend event. It&#8217;s a great event for all bloggers and anyone publishing online.</p>\n<p>There is also an after <a href=\"http://2009.sf.wordcamp.org/wordpress-anniversary-party/\">party celebrating the sixth anniversary of WordPress</a>!</p>\n<p>And Sunday, we&#8217;re hosting a barcamp-esque <a href=\"http://ma.tt/2009/05/wordcamp-developer-day/\">WordPress developer day</a>:</p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8230;expect more hardcore geek content like heavy WordPress performance optimization, BuddyPress internals, an intro to Erlang, a guide to secure coding, WordPress-as-CMS discussions, and more. If there’s a topic you’d like to lead start thinking about it now&#8230;</p></blockquote>\n<p>There are only 64 spaces left for WordCamp, so sign up now! (Already 536 <a href=\"http://2009.sf.wordcamp.org/attendees/\">people have registered</a>.)</p>\n<p>I hope to meet you there.</p>\n<div class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img title=\"Budd Family helping at Genius Bar WordCamp SF 2008\" src=\"http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3503/3460238686_94fd535c2d.jpg\" alt=\"Budd Family helping at Genius Bar WordCamp SF 2008\" width=\"500\" height=\"335\" /><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Budd Family helping at Genius Bar WordCamp SF 2008, as seen at http://central.wordcamp.org/</p></div>\";}i:45;a:7:{s:5:\"title\";s:56:\"Weblog Tools Collection: WP PluginsUsed: A Plugin Review\";s:4:\"guid\";s:84:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/05/14/wp-pluginsused-a-plugin-review/\";s:4:\"link\";s:84:\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/05/14/wp-pluginsused-a-plugin-review/\";s:11:\"description\";s:4533:\"<p>Funny how things can get connected quite quickly on the web.&#160; Check this out.</p>\n<p>I wrote a blog entry for WLTC just two days ago about <a title=\"Permanent Link to Five Nifty Sidebar Widgets for your WordPress Site\" href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/05/12/five-nifty-sidebar-widgets-for-your-wordpress-site/\">Five Nifty Sidebar Widgets for your WordPress Site</a>.&#160; Babs then <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/05/12/five-nifty-sidebar-widgets-for-your-wordpress-site/#comment-1255649\">commented on that post</a> and said:</p>\n<blockquote><p>Out of curiosity, does anyone know how many plugins it takes to break a WordPress site? *laughs*</p>\n</blockquote>\n<p>This comment then prompted <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/author/mark/\">Mark from here at WLTC</a> to write a blog entry asking visitors to <a href=\"http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/05/13/guess-how-many-plugins-we-have-active/\">Guess how many Plugins we have active</a> on the website and comment on how many active and inactive plugins they have on their own websites.&#160; This is a small contest that will earn the correct guesser a one year Flickr Pro membership.

There\'s quite a few things about WordPress MU that I like, but what I like most is, well, that\'s it\'s WordPress :)</p>\n<p>For this project I needed some fairly simple things, that I could have used other plugins for but I wanted them to be simpler and cleaner than most plugins could do for me. One of those things was I needed to show an image for each post on the index and archive pages, if there was one, and wanted to be able to add a certain class to that.</p>\n<p>So I wrote a small plugin called WordPress MU Attached Image, which does just that. It\'s use is simple, you <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://yoast.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/wpmu-attached-image.zip\">download the attached image plugin</a>, upload it to your mu-plugins folder, and use this in the loop in your theme:</p>\n\n<div class=\"wp_syntax\"><div class=\"code\"><pre class=\"php\" style=\"font-family:monospace;\">yst_thumb<span style=\"color: #009900;\">&#40;</span><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">\'class\'</span><span style=\"color: #339933;\">,</span><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">\'alt text\'</span><span style=\"color: #009900;\">&#41;</span><span style=\"color: #339933;\">;</span></pre></div></div>\n\n<p>Or, as in my case:</p>\n\n<div class=\"wp_syntax\"><div class=\"code\"><pre class=\"php\" style=\"font-family:monospace;\">yst_thumb<span style=\"color: #009900;\">&#40;</span><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">\'alignright\'</span><span style=\"color: #339933;\">,</span>get_the_title<span style=\"color: #009900;\">&#40;</span><span style=\"color: #009900;\">&#41;</span><span style=\"color: #009900;\">&#41;</span><span style=\"color: #339933;\">;</span></pre></div></div>\n\n<p>Now this plugin will work in a normal WordPress install too, but that\'s not what I wrote it for :)</p>\n<p>Another thing I badly wanted was a plugin that would force the same permalink structure on all new blogs, and disallowed blog admins from changing them. This plugin does that, and immediately shows why I love WordPress MU development: the power it has to easily change things on tons of blogs at the same time is very cool.</p>\n<p>It works like this: you <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http://yoast.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/wpmu-fixed-permalinks.zip\">download the fixed permalink plugin</a>, make sure that on line 11, this reflects the permalink structure you want:</p>\n\n<div class=\"wp_syntax\"><div class=\"code\"><pre class=\"php\" style=\"font-family:monospace;\"><span style=\"color: #000088;\">$yst_permalink_structure</span> <span style=\"color: #339933;\">=</span> <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">\'/%postname%/\'</span><span style=\"color: #339933;\">;</span></pre></div></div>\n\n<p>And you upload it to your mu-plugins folder. Voila: you\'re now the only one who can change permalink structures, and all new blogs will automatically have the right permalink structure.</p>\n<p>You can expect more posts on WordPress MU in the coming weeks, as I dive deeper into the system.

I though it would be interesting for all of you to do an interview with Matthew Wood, the genius behind all of this.</p>\n<p><em><strong>Hey Matthew, could you quickly introduce yourself and a4uexpo?</strong></em></p>\n<p>Sure, I’ve been involved in Affiliate Marketing for over 10 years. I started off by subsidising my university ‘drinking fund’ by developing, optimising sites for Google with a little Arbitrage, Google Adwords, Developing true Content Sites.</p>\n<p>I even managed to travel a bit of the world whilst tweaking affiliate websites roving with my laptop through Australia, Asia, Fiji, Canada and the USA – Certainly a great affiliate lifestyle!</p>\n<p>Things have become more serious though as I now employ a team of 7 who work from our offices in Bristol in the UK who develop more complex sites such as <a href=\"http://www.pricecuts.co.uk\">Pricecuts</a>.</p>\n<p>A4UExpo initially grew from our networking events that we organised alongside <a href=\"http://www.affiliates4u.com\">our forum</a> for many years around the UK, with informal gatherings of affiliates, networks, agencies and merchants. However we realised we must change the format when over 600 people attended an event in London and we had to close registration early and limit numbers from each company!</p>\n<p>This gave us the confidence to invest upwards of £100,000 in our first Conference at ExCeL in London back in 2007. Thankfully it was a huge success and we’ve since been back in 2008 and grown attendance by 30% - This April we boldly decided to expand the Conference into mainland Europe with our event at the RAI in Amsterdam.</p>\n<p><em><strong>You\'ve decided to come to Amsterdam and make a \"Europe\" version of your conference, why?</strong><br />\n</em></p>\n<p>We just love Amsterdam :-) Seriously though, after both the 2007 and 2008 conferences we were besieged with requests to expand into mainland Europe, and we felt the time was right to take our conference model to a neutral territory for a Pan European Event. We didn’t want to programme a light version of the conference either, which is why we’ve gone for the two full days, brining over 68 Speakers from around Europe to the conference and offering an astounding 46 unique sessions to attend. This is even larger than our show in London last year!</p>\n<p>The internet and Affiliate Marketing in particular is also very strong with good broadband penetration in most countries. Our mission with a4uexpo Europe is to spread the word and gain increased publicity for the channel to media planners, agencies, merchants and the press.</p>\n<p>It’s time that as a community we all shout to the world just how effective Affiliate Marketing is. That way more budget gets assigned to Affiliate Marketing as a channel and we all win.</p>\n<p>Of course we’ll need to show those brands how to embrace the sector effectively to get the most from it – and that’s where we can help.</p>\n<p>Affiliate Marketing simply put is not an out of the box solution; it needs hard work and effective management to make it a success.</p>\n<p><em><strong>What\'s the difference between the UK and the rest of Europe, from an affiliate\'s stand point?</strong><br />\n</em></p>\n<p>The UK along with Germany is recognised as being the most mature within Affiliate Marketing. I’d say in fact they are even more advanced that the market in the USA.</p>\n<p>This does mean that lessons have been learnt from Publisher and Advertiser activity, and this knowledge can be passed on, and new opportunities can be discovered by knowledge sharing.</p>\n<p>Whilst similar opportunities exist in all countries they are at different maturity levels. For instance Cashback or Loyalty, accounts for a huge proportion of affiliate activity in the UK at 25% compared to just 5% in Germany. However what is common across Europe is that SEM remains the key driver within Affiliate Marketing based on both Organic optimisation within Google and Paid Search Activity being conducted on a Performance Basis.</p>\n<p>Other than local nuances across sectors and verticals, the opportunities for cross country collaboration, standardisation, and monetisation are immense. This is one of the key reasons to bring the whole of the Affiliate Marketing Sector in Europe together in one place, at one time. The business and relationships that could be formed by pro-active delegates is what makes it all worthwhile.</p>\n<p><em><strong>What do you look forward to the most on A4UExpo Europe?</strong><br />\n</em></p>\n<p>Everything! The agenda this year is awesome; we’re really proud and honoured to have attracted so many knowledgeable experts from within Affiliate Marketing, Search and Peripheral Channels.</p>\n<p>Naturally I’m looking forward to your sessions Joost, and the numerous conversion optimisation and SEO panels we have scheduled, and also the famous networking opportunities that we offer.</p>\n<p>This April for instance we have three parties in Amsterdam only open to conference delegates. Our gentle (ish) pre conference bash at the Rosarium, the middle evening party where we’ll be heading to a lively Central Amsterdam Venue and Club and finally our After Show Party where we are planning on hitting the Urban Beach and then offering everyone the opportunity to head once again into central Amsterdam to a special venue that will be announced very soon, just next to the canals for the Queens Day celebrations.</p>\n<p>The networking at a4uexpo is what sets us apart, especially in an Industry where relationships really can make the difference between an Affiliate Programme being promoted, or not.</p>\n<p><strong><em>Anything else you\'d like to share?</em></strong></p>\n<p>Well, it would be rude not to offer your readers a discount to attend the event, therefore ‘YOAST10’ will give everyone 10% off the delegate rate which starts at just 279 Euros.</p>\n<p>This is a post from <a href=\"http://yoast.com/about-me/\">Joost de Valk</a>&#39;s <a href=\"http://yoast.com/\">Yoast - Tweaking Websites</a>. \n\nWant to make sure you\'re trying just as hard or harder as your competitors to rank in the search engines?

However what is common across Europe is that SEM remains the key driver within Affiliate Marketing based on both Organic optimisation within Google and Paid Search Activity being conducted on a Performance Basis.</p>\n<p>Other than local nuances across sectors and verticals, the opportunities for cross country collaboration, standardisation, and monetisation are immense. This is one of the key reasons to bring the whole of the Affiliate Marketing Sector in Europe together in one place, at one time. The business and relationships that could be formed by pro-active delegates is what makes it all worthwhile.</p>\n<p><em><strong>What do you look forward to the most on A4UExpo Europe?</strong><br />\n</em></p>\n<p>Everything! The agenda this year is awesome; we’re really proud and honoured to have attracted so many knowledgeable experts from within Affiliate Marketing, Search and Peripheral Channels.</p>\n<p>Naturally I’m looking forward to your sessions Joost, and the numerous conversion optimisation and SEO panels we have scheduled, and also the famous networking opportunities that we offer.</p>\n<p>This April for instance we have three parties in Amsterdam only open to conference delegates. Our gentle (ish) pre conference bash at the Rosarium, the middle evening party where we’ll be heading to a lively Central Amsterdam Venue and Club and finally our After Show Party where we are planning on hitting the Urban Beach and then offering everyone the opportunity to head once again into central Amsterdam to a special venue that will be announced very soon, just next to the canals for the Queens Day celebrations.</p>\n<p>The networking at a4uexpo is what sets us apart, especially in an Industry where relationships really can make the difference between an Affiliate Programme being promoted, or not.</p>\n<p><strong><em>Anything else you\'d like to share?</em></strong></p>\n<p>Well, it would be rude not to offer your readers a discount to attend the event, therefore ‘YOAST10’ will give everyone 10% off the delegate rate which starts at just 279 Euros.</p>\n<p>This is a post from <a href=\"http://yoast.com/about-me/\">Joost de Valk</a>&#39;s <a href=\"http://yoast.com/\">Yoast - Tweaking Websites</a>. \n\nWant to make sure you\'re trying just as hard or harder as your competitors to rank in the search engines?
