New to SITS? Welcome!! Go read this to get started.
Yesterday, Shannon mentioned she was blogging from Blissdom- I was fortunate enough to attend as well.
I know many of you are newer to blogging and wondering what these conferences are all about.
From where I stand they are about one thing- connecting.
Connecting with other women whose lives you get a glimpse of everyday.
Connecting with your own creativity.
Connecting with your inner entrepreneur.
There are all kinds of conferences for women in social media, how do you choose?
Well, I think consider: location, cost, people, etc.
BlogHer will have 3,000 attendees. Blissdom had 500. SITScation/Boot Camps have around 100.
If you’d think you’d like to try one out- Heather & I would love to see you at one of our bloggy boot camps.
Smaller, more intimate educational and net-working day conferences for under $100.
Currently, tickets are on sale for Balitmore and Phoenix.
San Francisco dates to be announced soon.
And, right now, we have a poll up for other stops: Austin, Minneapolis, Boston, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Chicago, London and Seattle. You can vote here.
We are also looking for speakers. You can submit yourself here.
And, now on to the Contest/Giveaway Link Up!
{Remember- link your contest name to the contest post!}

Have a fantastic Sunday, everyone! I hope you enjoy the big game — and if you’re not watching, then you’re at least still using it as an excuse to indulge in some comfort food.

Good morning ladies!
These blogging conferences sound great, I’m just not sure I could really justify getting a plane ticket from Germany to attend! Maybe one year when I’m back in the states I’ll be able to go to one!
