Conference Blogging — Setting It Up for Your Event

Posted by Kivi Leroux Miller on Apr 17, 2006 in Blogging |

I am helping a nonprofit client set up a blog for the group’s annual conference and exposition. Since I’ve never created a blog for this purpose, I tried to find some info online about conference blogging. While there are a zillion posts from people blogging conferences they are attending, there are very few by the conference hosts themselves discussing their experiences about hosting an “official” event blog. Here is what I did find:

10 Tips for Extending Your Education Conference

Conference and Corporate Blogging as a Marketing Tool

Tips for Live Bloggers This one is for the bloggers at the event, but it’s also instructive for conference sponsors.

Kivi,

Not sure if this would add to what you already have, but I wrote an article looking at this area called Public Relations for Events using Business Blogs which outlines the benefits and methods of using blogs for Conferences, Seminars etc.

Hope that it is of use.

Mark
