Now What? Conference 2013 - A Conference for Maintaining Better Websites

About

THANK YOU

Close to 160 web and marketing professionals descended upon the Belbas Theatre at the Washington Pavilion in April to experience the first ever NowWhat? Conference.

NowWhat? Conference is designed to help anyone who works with a website answer the question, “How do we keep our website useful and relevant?” And we think this year’s lineup was a smashing success.

This is not the end, however. This is just the beginning. We have already begun planning NowWhat? Conference 2014. If you want to keep up on the details, sign up for conference emails today!

Didn’t get a chance to make it to NowWhat? Conference? You missed not only a great lineup of speakers, but also the ability to network with some of the region’s coolest marketing and web professionals.

We can’t help you capture the networking, but we can help you check out some of the inspiring presentations from that day!
