WordCamp Denver 2020 Online was a huge success. Thank you to the organizers, sponsors, speakers, attendees and you for making it possible. A recording of the talk is available below, along with the slides.
Have a question about technical blogging? Fire away in the comments!
If you’ve followed me for long, you know I rave about WordCamps: the locally organized, all-volunteer conferences for all things WordPress and online creation.
WordCamps have taken me everywhere from Canada to Missouri and are usually the focal point of my summer travel plans.
That’s certainly changed in 2020, but WordCamps worldwide have risen to the occasion by offering free, online conferences. I’m so excited to have been a part of WordCamp Denver 2020.
Technical blogging has meant everything to my career. My clients have come from the content I produce.
I also see technical blogging as a way to build my community’s knowledge base and make learning social. Some of my most popular blog posts come from a friend asking about how to do something in Excel.
The posted talk description is below:
The WordPress community thrives when we share our technical expertise with each other. But, we’ve likely all met someone who is technically brilliant but struggles as a teacher.
In this talk, I will share my tips and tricks for developing effective technical instruction from over six years of blogging and online content creation. While my background is in data analytics, users in web development, technical writing and other fields will benefit from a discussion of blogging effectively about tech (particularly code). And for those want to take their blogs up a notch like never before, click here.
Not only will attendees have a path forward for developing solid technical blog posts, I will lay out the win-win that this skill will have on their careers and the community as a whole.
In the presentation, I mentioned my own data education resource library. I hope to share this as an example of what technical blogging can ultimately amount to: as a wholesale solution for organizations hoping to compete in tech.
The resource library is completely free and I continue adding to it. For exclusive free access, subscribe below.
