Pearl as a Guest Speaker at SkillPills

Last Wednesday, I had the chance to talk about my food blogging 6 years experience on Skillpills to a group of people who want to set up a new blog!

SkillPills is a series of workshop, taking place in Altcity in Hamra /Beirut,  where one can learn a new skill in three hours or less!

Last week's SkillPill Event : How to Set Up a BLOG for your business:

The workshop started with  Ziad Alameh, a techpreneur with a love for tech startups. CTO and Co-founder of Pikaside ,  x-Zoomaalian and a computer scientist.

Ziad gave the first the "technical part" of setting up a blog and preparing the template:
His talk mainly covered:

• Setting up a blog from zero
• Customizing the blog to your business
• Putting it online
• Analytics: number of visitors and viewers
• How to draw more traffic to your blog
  

Since I am out of Lebanon, I had to give it over Skype. At first, there was a video but considering the poor connection, we had to shift to voice

Nour Atrissi, from Skill Pills asked me the below questions during the workshop.

• Why blogging? What makes me blog?
• How did I start?
• A little bit about food blogging
• How blogging can be a good boost for exposure (business or personal)
• Any interesting stories I would like to share from your expertise
• What draws the crowds attention? exciting content ...

The modest income generated from skillpills is used to market future Skillpills and to support the space and trainer's expenses.
