Having the right marketing channels for your WordPress business is the difference between having a thriving WordPress business, and a struggling one.

You can make a great product or service, but if you’re not able to effectively get it in front of people who need and will pay for it, that’s no use. The difference can be choosing the right marketing channels.

This talk will explore what marketing channels are, the “channel philosophy”, and how to pick the right channels. I’ll aim to give you a clear framework on how to think about marketing your WordPress business 🙂

The internet has huge potential to move us towards a sustainable future through dematerialising products and streamlining industries. Despite its many benefits though, it is not perfect. The storage, processing and transmission of data consumes electricity and that has an impact on the environment. The web may appear clean, but it has a real impact on climate change and its impact is growing as our hunger for data accelerates.

The good news is that there are simple things that we can do about it, and contrary to what some may think, a green website can actually be a better website for everyone. Approaching web projects through the lens of sustainability can have benefits not just for the environment, but also in terms of improved SEO, accessibility, user experience and even cost savings.

We’ll look at some practical steps to green the web and the benefits that they bring.

Many projects I do require knowledge that I don’t have. Yet. With a standard technical approach and the willingness to plough through the discomfort of being in over my head, these projects are not only fun but also great learning experiences and have been (thus far) successful. This talk is a pep talk, a “you can do it” talk and, I hope, the boost someone needs to to start something they were too scared to try.

Keith Devon

It’s been 10 years since Keith pressed the big red ‘Start this meetup’ button and WordPress London was born.

That was the start of an amazing journey, both professionally and personally.

Keith will talk about what it was like to build WPLDN into a 1500+ strong meetup, the trials and tribulations along the way, what made him fall out of love with the WordPress community, how he fell back in love again, and the transitions from a freelancer to a small-agency owner.

It’s been a roller-coaster. Come along for the ride!

This will be about my journey and reluctance to go into building client website with WordPress. About the problems I had when I did and how I have started to find a way that is working for me.

In a friendly way, I’ll be challenging (or thought flipping) many accepted wisdoms and processes used when dealing with web clients.

With the ever accelerating speed of change online (even within WP with Gutenberg) Is it time now to be “selling” long term support (and training) services with websites as an addon to these?

Towards the end of 2015, Rareloop launched their WordPress starter theme Lumberjack, which built on open source tools such as Bedrock and Timber. We wanted to move Lumberjack forward inline with everything we have learnt over the years of using it – which meant completely re-writing it from the ground up. The new Lumberjack is now stable and ready for use!

This talk is aimed at anyone involved in working with WordPress, regardless of how technical you are. The beauty of Lumberjack is that you can use as much or as little as you like, so whether you’re new to web development or a seasoned software engineer there will be something here for you.
