The New Media Expo is the largest new media conference and trade show of the media industry dedicated to podcasting, blogging, web TV, and social media to help provide an educational experience for working professionals in any industry. Throughout this three-day conference, the podcasting, blogging, web TV, and social media tracks bring educational experiences that focus on creating successful online content, and how to bring well written content to the next level and how to have video content that engages an audience worldwide.
The podcasting track of this media industry-wide conference focuses on how a working professional can produce online content that is engaging to any audience. Furthermore, it gives the audience the opportunity to engage in a variety of ways including social media, blogging, and online website feedback.
The blogging track brings together the ability to create well-written content and to allow one’s writing reach a global audience. The main aspect any working professional will learn here is: What makes a successful blog, and how they can bring attention to the various aspects of a blog besides the writing itself.
The web TV track provides the opportunity for a working professional to learn how to create a successful web series. It’s a track that focuses on how one can create a community of fans that enjoy it and share their own experiences while creating it. The main focus of this track is to bring together content and how to reach a global audience, which make a web series worth watching.
The social media track focuses on how the working professional can make and use social media as part of their business; whether it’s in marketing, public relations, or information technology. In this track, the focus is about building a community of people for whatever aspect of business they are in and how the working professional can expand opportunities for networking to help make a particular company successful locally and around the world.
Even though this is a conference and trade show and is designed for the working professional, I encourage you to take the time to explore all that this conference and trade show has to offer.
