What\u2019s been your best experience with WordPress?<\/h3>\n

The fact that it can so easily be customized and used. We build custom websites for our clients which help them achieve their business goals and are easy to manage.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tell us a bit about your WordCamp Halifax talk.<\/h3>\n

I want my talk to help people who manage a site as part of their job or have a personal blog to create more effective, compelling content that can be found in search engines and encourages readers to convert.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your favourite thing about attending WordCamps?<\/h3>\n

This will be my first time, but my guess is connecting with other WordPress users and sharing our knowledge and experiences<\/p>\n

Recommend one to three people in the WordPress world to follow on social media!<\/h3>\n
