Why no one is reading your blog posts (and how to change that)

Kate Toon

Most blogs written these days need some serious love. With as many 10 million blog posts are published a day, it’s vital your content is rubbed and scrubbed into perfect shape. Kate will show how to build your brand and boost your website’s profile with seriously shareable content.

Based in Sydney where she loves wandering on the beach with her son and her CFO (Chief Furry Office-dog) Pomplemousse, Kate Toon is a writing entrepreneur, as well as a popular coach, speaker, author and podcaster.

Her digital education businesses The Recipe for SEO Success and The Clever Copywriting School have helped more than 8000 small business owners grapple the Google beast and write better content.


Why WordPress works for the technically challenged among us 

Katie Tilden

The idea of starting and managing a website can be truly terrifying for many business owners and writers, Katie included.  

Katie will share her experience of WordPress, the support and resources and how it too can be used by business owners, bloggers and writers, who aren’t IT experts (or even tech-savvy) or website developers, to build their business. 

Specialising in content and communications and running the consultancy, Two Sprouts Communications, Kate Tilden is a strategic thinker with a passion for communications.

When she’s not imparting her strategic & communication wisdom, she likes to bake, read, and spend time with her favourite people including her girls and husband (and partner in crime).
