American Adoption Congress Conference in Cambridge, MA After last year’s successful AAC Conference in San Francisco whew I had such a great time, I was already looking forward to this year’s upcoming American Adoption Congress Conference in March while on the plane on the way home.  Since I knew it would be held in Boston, I already knew that there would be no way I would miss this. This conference, as it is, already holds a special place in my heart; it was at the AAC 2007 that I met up with my adopted son, Max, for the first time. So a return trip to the AAC and Boston 8 years later and another chance to visit both my son and my brother is just about as perfect as one can get.

But then it gets better.

Since I started learning about SEO in 2008, it has been a lovely dream of mine to be able to share the secrets of this to the rest of the adoption community and I am thrilled that this year I will be presenting….

How to Roar: Internet & Blogging Best Practices for the Adoption Community

In Lobby Ballroom B on Saturday March 28th at 9:15 AM– 10:30 AM

While the internet has been an amazing tool to bring the adoption community together, there are basic best practices to utilized to really amplify our voices and reach a wider audience. Whether blogging, sharing or tweeting, knowing what Google wants and how to use SEO can benefit us all.

I plan on covering:

  • Understanding how Google and the search engines work
  • Keywords and keyword research
  • Understanding what the spiders like in URLs and formatting
  • Linking with a purpose
  • Social media tricks and etiquette
  • SEO copywriting for adoption

I’m really really super excited! So IF you do any sort of internet publishing in AdoptionLand and especially for our web managers and bloggers/writers involved in any of the causes we hold dear, I have to say.. you need to come to this session with me!
