I hope you will be attending DrupalCon 2017 next week in Baltimore. This a great opportunity to update your Drupal knowledge and network with others. It’s also your chance to sign up for a special, two-hour training session on Drupal 8 SEO which is free to Drupalcon attendees.

I will be holding a Drupal 8 SEO Hands-On Seminar beginning at 15:45 on April 25 in room 321 at the Baltimore Convention Center. We will do the most important on-page optimizations that I’d execute for a Volacci SEO...

We're super excited that DrupalCon is in Austin this year so we decided to make our own original Austin-themed shirts for the occasion.

A quick yet informative list of must-do adventures to accomplish while in Austin for DrupalCon Austin 2014.

For those who couldn't make it to DrupalCon Munich, the following are a few highlights and stories, as told through various Twitter channels.

There were several significant announcements about Drupal 8 in Munich this week. It's looking like the next major revision of the CMS is going to bring a lot of usability and functionality to the Marketers of the world. Here're the money quotes:

...the Drupal core programmers have been busy and at Drupalcon Munich, a series of significant usability and feature upgrades in the works for Drupal 8 have been demonstrated. These improvements are sure to please CMOs and CTOs alike.

This one really gets me excited for our marketing clients:

Content creation in Drupal 8 will be greatly simplified for less technical users. Drupal 8 will provide easier layout control and facilitate gorgeous designs with practically no coding. All of these features will greatly lower the learning curve for new developers.

It's looking like a huge step in the right direction for the community.

• Ben: Finding Your Drupal Niche

This weekend marks the beginning of the highly-anticipated, semi-annual Drupal conference: DrupalCon San Francisco 2010. In years past, DrupalCon has made and broken Drupal developers, coders, techno-geeks, and Drupalistas alike with long break-out sessions, birds-of-a-feather throwdowns, after-parties, and mechanical bull rides. Anything can happen at a DrupalCon, and with the buzz building bigger than ever, I have a feeling that this year is going to be the best yet!

Whether you are a DrupalCon virgin or a seasoned veteran, it is always important to be prepared. As thousands of Drupalistas finish packing and prepare to descend upon the unsuspecting streets of San Francisco, the Cub Scout in me wants to ensure that you survive this year’s DrupalCon without any permanent scars.

Over the last month or so, I have gathered a list of essential items for this year’s installment of DrupalCon. I used social networks to ask for opinions, feedback, and other items I might have overlooked. One such facebook friend, Rebekah Farris, was even inspired enough to put together her own DrupalCon Survival Kit list. Her list is very thorough, funny, and covers some of the essential items, such as a laptop, duct tape, and swag.

Our lists may overlap with one or two items, but rest assured that a fresh and unique DrupalCon SF 2010 Survival Kit follows after the jump.

The one thing that makes Drupal so powerful – its flexibility – is a blessing and a curse. While it allows Drupal to excel at all things “open source”, it can also be overwhelming to configure correctly for an optimal relationship with the search engines. Queue Volacci’s Drupal Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Hands-On Training! On Sunday, April 18th, at DrupalCon’s Pre-Conference training, Volacci is giving an all-day, hands-on professional training course on Drupal SEO that will help you amp up your Drupal knowledge all the way to 11! From Drupal neophyte to ninja, there is something for everyone at Drupal SEO Hands-On Training by Volacci.
