Blogger Catch the Highlights of the WAB Conference Lagos 2015

     
The West Africa Bloggers Conference was a two-day conference aimed at Bloggers from across the West African countries.
       Day 2 started around 9:30 with introduction speech from Mr Oyebade appreciating everyone that were present in the day 1 and urged everyone to be attentive and get a spark(in his words). A cool jazz music from Mr Frank to usher in everybody got everyone cooled off especially me thanks to the cool breeze from the AC having gone through the rigour of lagos traffic was even thanking God that i could make it early to the event unlike the day 1.
       The first session was titled "The battle of the bloggers by Mr Franklin. Where he talked about the WHY; what defines you as a brand, Who are you, What do yo want to achieve? How do you want to share, How are you different? Also the 5C's Content, Context, Connection, Customers service.
       Mr Tawio CAM of Google talked on a very controversial topic Copyright infringement. Yes 65% bloggers are faulty of this; Copy and Paste of content. As a blogger you have to be original write good content and be professional. If you are involved in "copy and paste" (i too at a time was once guilty of 
this) please stop and be original.
       Yeah when i thought we had heard the peak of the conference Mrs Alero CEO Smiles communication engaged the participants on how to promote their blog. Find your niche,build your audience, use keywords,be friendly and know your targeted audience. Mr bayero Agabi also talked about blogging on social media and technology. Three bloggers walked away with smifi packs courtesy of Smiles communication.
       "APPTITUDE IS THE NEXT ATTITUDE" MTN was not left out of the show as Mr Muyiwa had to reveal the new product of MTN in which bloggers can benefit from they are; APPTITUDE and CALLER FEEL. You wondering on how to benefit from these product, not to worry i will be explaining more in my next post WATCH OUT!!!!
        One of the partners of the event JUMIA also had the chance to address the participants on jumia affiliate network program for bloggers on how they can join and benefit from it. Also their coming biggest discount ever on mobile "Jumia Mega Mobile Week" Mr Seun Adenuga from jumia also engaged bloggers on how to promote their blog on socials.
         There was also a bloggers pannel session where some bloggers were able to share their success and struggle stories on blogging. Then came the moment i had been waiting for Tea Break and lunch (not that I like food ooo) although Mr Oyebade will not allow us enjoy the break because he was trying to introduce Gist Me and Adverts Strickers (will expanciate more on their services in my next post WATCH OUT!!!) Mr H19 so he called himself was giving us cool jazz music during the break also. Even though Mr Oyebade will not allow me enjoy my break i got a better offer so to say AIT Network asked me for an interview(yeah so if you want to catch me on TV tune in on Saturday 8am)
          Mr Lanre from Google wrapped up the whole show with his session on Google Adsence; how you can get approved for it, be original, good content and no copy and paste content. I could not finish is session because it was getting late and i have to beat the traffic back home.
          Beleive me sincerely it was a good time in the conference that to the organizers and supporters Gist me, Smils communication, Jumia, Adverts Strickers, First Bank, Mtn and Google nigeria. Thank you all....

  1. It was interesting, as I was there at the day 1 but could not make it on day 2, I learn a lot on blogging which I can't say all: introduction of VLOG, using the social media, being original, writing with passion and you will make it in blogging. This is all I can say.
