Saturday Sessions @ Foodbuzz Fest

11/10/10

I woke up bright and early on Saturday ready to enjoy a morning of educational sessions that would help me develop as a blogger but my feet had other plans.

I had spent Thursday walking around the city attending a marathon of meetings for work in a pair of flats. By the end of the day my feet felt tired but when I looked down I saw massive blisters. Every woman has had a blister or two in her life so I thought little of it and changed my shoes.

By Saturday, the blisters were a different story. My feet were swollen and throbbing with pain. Not even my running shoes were a suitable solution but I put on a smile, donned my pearls and wobbled in my best tourist getup to the sessions I had planned to attend: Food Blogging Guide to Success (Whatever That Is!) and Star of the Show – Video Blogging.

The sessions were set up as panels which kept them interesting and interactive. I also liked that they didn’t drag to long and kept my attention. Each hour was jam-packed with information. Here some tips I took away:

Guide to Success 

 

Panelists: 

Carrots N Cake

  • Set a publishing calendar
  • Manage time for writing, reading and social networking
  • Choose a blogging schedule and be consistent

  • Read other blogs, even those that are not about food and guest post on them
  • Take time away from the computer and connect with people
  • Make your blog personal
  • Add thoughtful comments on other blogs you read
  • Photos matter
  • Continue to learn and challenge yourself
  • Posts don’t have to be epic
  • Reach new audiences

Panelists:

Food Wishes

Let me just say that these panelists were absolutely lovable! They were entertaining and their energy both as individuals and how they interacted together was  contagious. A truly enjoyable panel!
