January 24, 2024 — I watched a few YouTube videos on security in WordPress and if you think all you need to do is install a WordPress plugin (as these videos suggested) I highly recommend coming to this talk.

There is a lot more than just installing a plugin to secure a site, there are tools like using CloudFlare, using an actual firewall, etc.

I’ll walk you through a lot of things I do for the couple hundred sites that I host.

January 24, 2024 — Congratulations, you created a WordPress blog! You have taken the first step in contributing to the online world. But in today’s internet environment, just writing a post and clicking publish is not enough.

This presentation will show you great ways to promote and increase traffic to your WordPress blog. From podcasts, social media, and more, you have the power to become popular on the internet.

January 24, 2024 — There’s no doubt that we are in a global economy. Now, more than ever before, people from around the world can connect with you real-time, to read your blog, buy your goods or use your services.

But ….how does one begin to actually connect with the world?

In this talk, we will explore diverse ways you can bring your blog, talents, and products to an international audience…. Starting with WordPress, of course!

January 24, 2024 — Oftentimes, website providers think they are “adding value” by giving away some of their work or time. Typically this means 1) not getting paid for discovery activities and/or 2) not getting paid for scope changes.

Regardless, giving away work ALWAYS sets the incorrect expectation with the client, and ends up eating away at the project profit margin. The answer?

Use a paid discovery process that delays finalizing the estimate until AFTER a deep dive discovery is complete.

Establish and implement a “set-in-stone” change procedure that uses a change budget.

January 24, 2024 — What is “agile”? What is scrum? Are they the same thing? How do I know if I’m being “agile”?

These questions and more will be answered in this discussion on what it means to bring agility to your business. This talk is not just a technical discussion and in some ways will touch all aspects of your business.

Learn why embracing change is important, why more frequent customer interaction “counterintuitively” saves you time and money, and learn some traits of the most successful teams in the software industry.In this session we will cover:

How to use a 2-step proposal process to ensure you get paid for ALL discovery activities without fear of the client going elsewhere.
How to establish and implement a solid change control process that helps set proper client expectations, minimizes frivolous change requests, and allows you to always (yes, ALWAYS) come in on time and under budget. (It works like magic!)

January 24, 2024 — When it comes to marketing, there are a million things you can do, and a million more things everyone tells you “you MUST” do. When it comes to REAL LIFE and what actually works with clients today, there is a much simpler approach. This talk with explore a scaled back version of marketing that actually works. If your client can survive in business for 10+ years and you have a hand in that, you have a built a relationship that will last through good times and bad, no matter what the economy is doing.

In this talk, Elizabeth will share how she approaches Branding, Websites, Social Media, Blogging/Podcasting, Email Marketing etc, in an “minimalist” way so you can grow your client base in a way that will make your company (and your client’s companies) stand the test of time.

January 22, 2024 — Apertura de la WordCamp Zaragoza 2024

January 22, 2024 — Ha llegado la hora, ya no hay excusas posibles. Hay que cumplir con las normas de accesibilidad, tanto si hablamos de la administración, como si recibes subvenciones, o si simplemente pones tus productos y servicios a disposición del público. Ya no hay escapatoria, los consumidores ganan. La accesibilidad es la nueva RGPD, no quisimos adoptarla por las buenas así que nos toca aceptarla por las malas.
Tenemos un Real Decreto que establece fechas límite y habla de sanciones, a ver si así nos lo tomamos en serio. WordPress, y su comunidad, hace todo lo que puede para que las webs que crees sean accesibles, pero la accesibilidad no es solo responsabilidad del código. El diseño, la implementación, los vídeos, los documentos y los plugins que añadas pueden estropear el resultado de una revisión de accesibilidad y eso es responsabilidad tuya. Sabemos cuándo vendrán, es el momento de prepararnos. Luego no digas que nadie te avisó.
