November 13, 2020 — Most WordCampers know what an image ALT tag is or have seen closed captions on television shows or YouTube videos. Still, the majority of those reading this skip these critical first steps in making client or personal sites accessible.

This talk covers these basics:

– What the first 4:44 seconds of the Lion King can teach us about accessibility
-How to find WordPress themes and plugins to get you started on being accessible right “out of the box”
– How to avoid generating creating “craptions” and tools to improve YouTube’s auto-captioning
– How, as a beginner, how you handle images and videos in a more mobile-first world can improve your site performance in SEO ranking
– How accessibility is often seen as an inconvenience but actually enhances your website performance if done correctly

November 12, 2020 — Learn how to set up a WordPress site for SEO success.

Have you ever launched a website only to later discover that some annoying SEO followed after you and subsequently ruined your good work? Have you ever had the experience of some obnoxious digital marketer bugging you for lots of small changes – outside the client’s scope and budget?

That might have been my fault. This talk explains how we can work together to help our clients.

November 12, 2020 — In 2013 I launched a blog for female creative entrepreneurs that became an overnight success in its own niche in Italy. Six years later, the blog is still going strong: it grew from a handful of contributors to a newsroom of over eighty authors. Last December I was able to hand it off to a new team thanks to the smooth editorial processes we put in place. In this talk, I’ll share the challenges we encountered over the years creating an effective workflow for the growing number of authors and my experience in keeping the quality consistent while maintaining a schedule relevant to the audience’s expectations. I’ll recommend best practices including how to manage user permissions, how to assign editing and curation, deciding who has the final editorial say and delegating the task of actually getting the content online. I will share practical solutions, based on what worked for us, that many different types of teams can use to coordinate their efforts and keep things in check.

November 9, 2020 — Fast jeder in der WordPress-Community ist Betreiber eines Blogs (oft schon von Berufswegen), warum finden wir auf den WordCamp Badges dann aber nur den Twitter-Handle?

Klar, soziale Netzwerke bieten viele Vorteile im Gegensatz zu klassischen Webseiten. Schreibe ich einen Blogpost, erhalte ich kaum Resonanz, teile ich diesen Blogpost über Twitter, erhalte ich im Durchschnitt 5 Reaktionen. Soziale Netzwerke stellen aber auch ein Risiko dar. Netzwerke werden geschlossen, Regeln können sich ändern und man kann den Zugang zu ihnen verlieren. Warum sollten wir also nicht das Beste aus beiden Welten nutzen? Die Sicherheiten des eigenen Blogs und die Reichweite der sozialen Netze. Das IndieWeb ist eine Art “Web 2.0” Revival. Im Zentrum steht die eigene Webseite und Facebook, Twitter & Co. erweitern es um die soziale Komponente… und wer hätte gedacht, dass sich mit Pingbacks dezentrale Netzwerke bauen lassen?
