Workshop: Finding effective keywords for your site

This 90-minute workshop (limited places) on Keyword Research will take place on the Saturday. It is a special for WordCamp Dublin and will be run by members of Yoast’s e-learning team.

Doing keyword research is such an essential step in your SEO strategy. If you want to grow or at least get any traffic, you can’t skip it. We know it can be daunting though, where do you even start?

Here’s your answer: join in on Yoast Academy’s keyword research workshop! We will walk you through the steps of keyword research, so you will know how to set up and fill in your keyword research sheet. You will have so much inspiration for making new content! And best of all: it will be content that your audience is actually looking for.

WordCamp Dublin is grateful to Yoast for working with us to make available this workshop on the Saturday of the conference and a one hour workshop for students at the University on the previous day.

The workshop requires having a charged laptop. There are only a maximum of 50 spaces available.

Why subtitles are a must for online video

This session will reveal why subtitling needs to be budgeted and resourced as part of your website scope and video content planning. From SEO and e-learning to accessibility and usability, thinking about subtitling is a must for your marketing, behaviour change and customer engagement.

Abha will also share the progress on the Make WordPress subtitling campaign aimed at encouraging a change in how the need and benefit of subtitles is viewed. There will also be tips on using online software Amara for subtitling videos on WordPress.tv, and a great way of practising skills which can then transfer to your work.

The session will feature research with users on their experience of how subtitles allow them and others to access content rich materials. We hope at the end of this session, attendees and speakers will join the list of campaign champions.
