Social Media Week #SMWBangalore

Social Media Week Bangalore (Feb 23rd to 27th 2015)


Being a part of Web Marketing Academy, we were recommended and asked to
attend the Social Media Week events which happened across different venues around Indiranagar, Bangalore between 23rd and 27th Feb.

Me and my batch-mates attended quite a few sessions on 3 days and felt these were quite helpful if you have to become a digital marketeer.

We benefited by knowing quite a bit on the industry trends with interactions with some of the digital media agencies.

Met quite a few experienced professionals from the industry and was good to hear them speak about the ideas and tips for the freshers.

I loved the session on 'How to take your Mobile App to one million downloads' by Mr. Samir Paswani of CouponDunia and 'Social Media & Mobile - Made for each other' by Mr. Himanshu Arora of Socialpanga.com. They gave very valuable inputs and the case studies they presented were really interesting and motivating with lot of guidelines for an amateur like me.

I always wondered whether SEO was a difficult one and how is SEO done for a website?

Search Engine Optimization or SEO looked like impossible and a word/phrase which was like it came from a different world altogether. I always thought it was too difficult a job to do an SEO for any website and never wanted to even try that as it sounded as though it had got lot of technicalities, like meta keywords, tags, and so on. These fears were only until I attended Suresh's class on SEO this week. After that it's like me saying, is that all..."OMG, I CAN DO IT"; am so very confident now and ready to take up SEO for any given website. Suresh (WMA) made it look so simple with few techniques & the guidelines which he explained that one should & must follow. With just a few simple steps, you are ranking your website on top of the Search Engines; that's wonderful, isn't it? He made us practice at length until we got the real gist of it; he was not even willing to go ahead with the class until we proved him that we got what he thought. And this

My journey in the world of Advertising – Traditional to Digital

‘Adworld is Madworld’ – this is what I had heard as a child. And above I had heard people talk that the ones who are in the advertising world are not the people with morale. So advertising for me was not by choice it was by chance. I started my journey when I was barely 18 years and just out of my 12 th . Fate brought me to this field and I continued to pursue this as I got literally addicted and passionate about the industry.
