I have graduated from USYD with a Masters Degree in Digital Communication and Culture and have been working with WordPress full time since 2009 (and with other technologies for some time before that). <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m the girl behind WordChicks, Melbourne\u2019s all-women WordPress meet-up (and made it onto this list with other awesome WordPress Women), and one half of the team who put together PressJam, a WordPress for good \u2018rapid build\u2019 event in 2013. I\u2019ve also been the proud leader of amazing teams who made the awesome WordCamps Melbourne 2013 and Sydney 2012. I\u2019m also a WP Tuts author &#8211; and if that wasn\u2019t enough WordPress for you, I\u2019m training beginning (and advanced) WordPress users for City Desktop and elsewhere as people need. <\/p>\n<p>I love to share what I\u2019m learning, as a consequence you can find my code snippets and tutorials on my website and you can see me in action speaking about the WordPress community at WordCamp Auckland 2012 on WordPress.tv <\/p>\n<p>Follow Dee on Twitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thewebprincess\" target=\"_blank\">@thewebprincess<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>WordCamp Session:<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/2014.raleigh.wordcamp.org\/session\/responsible-digital-home-ownership\/\" title=\"Responsible [digital] Home Ownership\">Responsible [digital] Home Ownership<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Session Description:<\/h3>\n<p>This is a user track talk that I delivered for the Pro Blogger Training weekend on the Gold Coast (Australia) for Darren Rowse and his team and for the WordPress Brisbane meetup. It&#8217;s geared towards training up WordPress users to take better care of the back end of their sites. <\/p>\n<p>I believe that it is easy to make strong comparisons between looking after your website, and looking after your home. <\/p>\n<p>You need insurance to cover you for when things go wrong and a plan of attack to get yourself back on track when bad things happen. <\/p>\n<p>You need to undertake routine maintenance to make sure your site is healthy, will keep working, and will sustain your content for the long term. <\/p>\n<p>Your site needs proper security measures to prevent attacks and keep your content safe and prevent your site being misused by others. <\/p>\n<p>Your site needs pest control to deal with spammy pests. <\/p>\n<p>Finally, when you\u2019ve got your site secured and up to date and \u2018insured\u2019 you should start thinking about optimising its performance and efficiency. <\/p>\n<p>In this talk we&#8217;ll cover the areas that need looking after and offer some tips and tools so that site owners can walk away confident that they have the goods to be able to better maintain their digital homes.  <\/p>\n<h3>Track:<\/h3>\n<p>Power Users<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m a Genesis WordPress web developer, community organiser, trainer, blogger and all round WordPress enthusiast who is passionate about imparting that same enthusiasm to community members, clients and trainees.
