The Multi Talented Rebecca Gill

You can find Rebecca speaking at conferences all around the U.S. and she has been speaking at WordCamp Ann Arbor since our first year. She’s an expert in SEO, WordPress, user experience and marketing. Let’s learn more about her!

What drives you to speak at WordCamps?

I speak at WordCamps for two main reasons. First, I like to give back to the community and speaking is a great way to accomplish this task. Second, I’m a firm believer in the power of SEO and that anyone can perform quality SEO if they have the right education and desire. I speak about SEO at conferences so I can get people excited about SEO, let them see the possibilities SEO offers, and show them how to take the steps necessary to learn and execute quality SEO.

What is your session about?

In my session we’ll be exploring three core SEO tactics for creating search engine friendly websites and blogs. We’ll deep dive into setting up content silos, the pros and cons of content depth, and super powers found in internal links.

What would you like to see change about the WordPress platform in the next 5-10 years?

I would love to the active WordPress community to better reach those who are not active. The majority of WordPress users are unaware of the robust community, the willingness to help, and the amazing conferences that are available.

Who do you think is under represented in the WordPress community?

End users because they simply don’t know enough about what is happening in WordPress and how they can get involved.

What was the most challenging WordPress project you’ve worked on?

A large project that integrated WordPress, LearnDash, WooCommerce, and an outside forum into one learning platform. It involved a number of companies working together to produce a solution set for the client.
