Type-A Mom ran from Friday morning (we arrived on Thursday, which held a few business-oriented meetings and groups) until the 80s Flashback Party on Sunday night (which we sadly missed, due to our evening flight). Both days were packed with sessions, with only short breaks in between for bathroom breaks, snack breaks, meal breaks, etc. What is a session? A session is a panel, a mini-conference of sorts, devoted to a specific subject. Since Type-A Mom is a blogging network that is devoted to moms who blog, and moms who market their blogs, the sessions were all related to blogging, blog marketing, and even SEO (search engine optimization) and multimedia.

Marketing to Social Media Moms

 The first session I attended was Marketing to Social Media Moms, hosted by Amy Lupold Bair and Dina Freeman, which was all about how moms are involved in social media, and why companies should try their damndest to get a slice of it. There are three basic "types" of social media moms: the field expert, who has plenty of expertise and perhaps even a career founded on just living her life and raising her child(ren); the lifecaster, who simply shares what's going on in her life, from the blueberry muffin she ate to the diaper she changed to the products she cleans her house with; and the pro, the mom who uses her passion and life experiences to generate a business. There were definitely a few highlights of Marketing to Social Media Moms:

• Motherhood is the #1 reason for social media.
• The 80/20 Rule: just 18% of social moms are responsible for 78% of the influence in social media.
• Over half of US women use social media at least once a week. While blogs are the most influential, Facebook is used by over 42 million women.
• The majority of female Twitter users make use of Twitter as a way of finding and sharing deals and promos.
• Over 70% of consumers want companies to respond to them via social media outlets.

The last highlight resonates with me, as both a consumer and someone who has a blog and manages blogger with blogs. I can't tell you how awesome it is to be able to communicate with companies via Twitter (Comcast and Site5 come to mind). Who wants to deal with 800 numbers and a million menu options when you can send a simple @reply to a company rep?

Know Your Numbers: Putting Together a Media Kit

Then there was the session devoted to media kit development, Know Your Numbers: Putting Together a Media Kit, hosted by Katja Presnal and Wendy Scherer. A media kit is a digital representation of you, your blog, your brand, and your stats. Media kits are presented to advertisers and PR reps as a way of saying, "This is what I have to offer, and this is why you want to work with me". A media kit should include your blog stats, Facebook and Twitter stats, a condensed summary of what your blog is about, and of course, your contact info. Memorable quotes from this session:

Don't work for cupcakes.

If someone comes to you and wants something, your time is valuable and thus you should be compensated for it.

Legal Issues for Bloggers

I was super-excited to attend Legal Issues for Bloggers, which was hosted by Hollee Temple, due to the fact that the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently stepped in to oversee paid blogging/marketing arrangements with bloggers. As both a blogger and a manager of bloggers for EdenFantasys, this is obviously a very relevant subject, and one I wanted to hear more about. Unfortunately for me, most of the session focused on defamation, which in the blog world usually translates to saying bad things about people. What's interesting is that there is a difference between libelous statements (accusing someone of theft or molestation, for example) and hyperbole (calling somebody a bitch, or saying that they smell). You can sue — and often successfully so — over libel and slander. You can't really sue over hyperbole. Then there's copyright and trademark, which are both very relevant to many bloggers — especially those who have unfortunately had their work stolen at some point. Did you know that your site or blog is copyrighted simply by writing the name & date along with "Copyright" or "Copyrighted" somewhere on it? Of course, to successfully sue someone for infringement, you will need to register for that actual copyright or trademark. Fortunately for those of you who attended the session and missed out on information on FTC guidelines for bloggers, and for those of you who didn't attend the session or perhaps didn't even attend Type-A Mom, I put together an article on FTC guidelines: FTC Guidelines for Bloggers.

SEO with Soul

SEO with Soul, hosted by Jen Miner and Kristie McNealy, is another panel I was chomping at the bit to attend, because I not only work with product reviews, but focus on SEO as well — both for my own blogs and for EdenFantasys. I'm always after new tips and tricks and insights, so I was one of the first ones into this session. SEO — that's Search Engine Optimization, by the way — is all about helping people find your website by getting highly ranked in search engines. Google is the main search engine that is focused on (and with good reason — I like to quip that Google is God), but other search engines such as Yahoo and Bing certainly play a role. The higher up in search results your site is, the better, because most people do not bother to go past the second or third page of results. First and foremost, to make the most of your blog, get a damned domain name already. I see the amount of effort put into Blogspot- and WordPress- hosted sites, and it makes me cringe, seriously cringe, because all of that work would go so much further if your URL was mynameisjenn.com instead of mynameisjenn.blogspot.com. Use keywords. Develop keywords and phrases that reflect your brand and content, and use them throughout your site — in titles, in meta tags, in header tags, etc. Have others link to you using those keywords, too. Another tidbit? Sprinkle a few relevant keywords into the first paragraph of every blog entry. And don't forget to use the ALT and TITLE descriptors in images! Not sure which keywords to use? Check out blogs that are similar in nature to yours and see what keywords they're using! Build up your SEO with whitehat (good) techniques, and avoid plunging your Google PageRank or losing it altogether by staying far, far away from blackhat (bad) techniques. Increase incoming links, decrease outgoing links and instead focus on high quality outbound links (Google gives you more link juice that way). Aim for 300 words or more in a post, and an outgoing link or two in the first paragraph. If you use WordPress, don't forget to stock up on SEO plugins, including All In One SEO Pack or Platinum SEO Pack!

10 Habits of Highly Successful Bloggers

10 Habits of Highly Successful Bloggers, hosted by Angela England, was definitely interesting. A successful blog is one that is active and chock full of content and updated frequently, but there's definitely a little more to it than that:

1. Technical Skills: SEO — know the keys of search engine optimization
2. Speak Up: Don't be afraid to engage your audience. Ask questions, present a challenge, leave something off the list in order to encourage readers to respond. Become a part of the community by passing an opportunity to someone else, making an introduction, creating something to help someone else, feature another blogger, etc.
3. Have a P.L.A.N.: P – Precise – Have a specific direction in mind L – Lasting – "over a period of time" A – Arrival Point – Where are you heading? Destination? N – Natural – "Realistic to you and your goals"
4. Be PROactive: Control how you blog, how you engage with your community, etc.
5. Be True: T = Tested – What have your actions proven? R = Reliability – Consistency is vital U = Understanding – Show that you care S = Servanthood – "An honest and sincere intent to set your heart on the good of people around you." T = Time – A daily investment
6. Be Yourself: Your voice matters. Your voice has value. Write with passion. Write with nerve. Write with your heart wide open.
7. Focus Your Efforts: Work Smarter. Have a schedule. Work where you need to be. Follow the passion.
8. Remember Your Value: Your words have VALUE. Reprint fees for plagiarists, write paid content, make sure you benefit from what you do.
9. Overcome Obstacles: sidestep, change your direction, speed up, take a break, stretch your efforts.
10. The Slide Edge Principle: it's small, it's easy, it's hard. It's everyday choices.

For those of you still reading, these were just a handful of Friday's sessions! I'll be updating you all soon with a post detailing the second sessions I attended at Type-A Mom.

Blogging conferences are great for many reasons, but two reasons stand out to me: the opportunity to attend informative, inspiring and entertaining sessions; and the opportunity to meet and socialize with people who, like you, may qualify as being addicted to their blogs.

Victoria Bowman-Steinour, EdenFantasys' Marketing Director, and myself, Jenn, EdenFantasys' Off-site Review Program Manager, attended this year's Type-A Mom conference, and we had the opportunity to check out both sessions and other bloggers. I have plenty to say about the sessions, but I first wanted to make a shoutout post to all of the great bloggers, moms and entrepreneurs we met over the weekend!

First, can I just say how happy I was to meet and even just observe all of the bloggers at Type-A Mom? There's nothing like basking in the glow of a room full of bloggers — and their laptops and netbooks!

Type-A Mom's Speed Dating session gave me ample opportunity to meet multiple bloggers at once — and find out a little bit about them, too! You know how introductory conversations can sometimes be a little stilted or awkward? Not so when "Introduce yourself!" is the subject at hand!

I think the coolest bloggers I met at Type-A Mom were the ones I have already been working with. I ran into Jessica of The B Keeps Us Honest (and I finally know what the B stands for!), Amethyst of Life, Music & Laughter, and the lovely and spunky Kris of Little Tech Girl! I also met Connie Foggles, a blogger whom I've known online for at least three years! She realized who I was after recognizing my Twitter handle — which I had on my necklace, thanks to Survival of the Hippest! 

But that doesn't mean I wasn't excited to meet other bloggers, in particular ones who were there not only to share their blogs, but the awesome products they make:

Meet Sherry of Baby Pop Designs & @BabyPopDesigns. She makes custom superhero capes for kids! And yes, I bought one for my daughter. I also ordered another, which my son can't wait to have!

Chrissy of Mamas Little Helper and @MamasLtlHelper doesn't have tangible products to offer, but something better — valuable organization and reference services for parents living in Pennsylvania and New Jersey! P.S. Thank you for the calzone!

Say hello to Robin of Balls To The Wall Ya'll and @RobinPlemmons. She takes hunks of wood — often from scrap yards and the like — cuts them down to 12" x 5", then paints them and decorates them with hilarious and cute sayings and illustrations.

Robin is also creating custom "#seasonstweetings" wooden ornaments.

Yes, that is going on my Christmas tree!

Amy of Crankypants Knits and @crankypantsknit knits up a storm and produces gorgeous, adorable, makes-my-uterus-weep pants, longies, socks, sock monsters and other odds and ends for babies and toddlers. She also makes cute coffee wraps — great for keeping hot coffee cups from burning your hands!

Lisa of Studio Jewel and @thebeadgirl introduced her gorgeous line of metal and bead jewelry by passing around free keychains!

David Griner of The Social Path and @griner, while not a blogger, still makes this list because he not only brought delicious Little Debbie goodies to the conference (and made sure there were plenty to go around!), but he also rescued my mobile wifi card and coordinated with Kelby Carr to make sure I got it back. Thanks David!

Other bloggers I can't forget about:

Robin Dance – a lovely woman with an equally lovely southern accent. She made sure I got an extra bear so my kids didn't have to share.

Leticia Barr – Leticia made my day when she recognized me on the plane!

Jessica Rosenberg – we had a lovely chat about SEO and social media!

Carol Cain – gorgeous and sassy beyond words. What I wouldn't give to spend a day with her!

Kym Thurman – new to blogging, but her enthusiasm will take her far! Type-A Mom '10 was an awesome conference to attend. I'm so glad I went and got to meet so many wonderful people!

EdenFantasys is being represented at Type-A Mom this weekend by myself, Jenn, the Off-site Review Program Manager / Blogger Relations and manager of the Ambassador Program; and Victoria Bowman-Steinour, our Marketing Director. We’ve met dozens of super-cool bloggers, even had dinner with a few of them, and have had the opportunity to attend several informational sessions on all things relating to blogging, including blog rebranding, marketing to social media moms, building a business with branding, putting together a media kit (very useful if you’re planning on reaching out to companies for product review, giveaway and advertising opportunities!), and knowing the legal issues bloggers face. The latter session interested me the most, because as a blogger and a manager of bloggers for EdenFantasys, it’s important that I know what flies and what doesn’t in terms of blogging and abiding by the FTC guidelines.

For those of you that didn’t get the chance to attend the Legal Issues for Bloggers, which covered, among other things, abiding by the FTC guidelines, I’ve put together a quick and hopefully helpful list that you can bookmark or print out to keep in mind and reference as needed when blogging, and especially when partnering with companies to produce product reviews, sponsor giveaways, or participate in some other type of partnership whose end result is you presenting a company and its products or services to your audience.

For reference, the FTC, or Federal Trade Commission is an independent United States government agency that promotes consumer rights and protection, while at the same time preventing and eliminating harmful business practices, including — but not limited to — deceptive arrangements with bloggers and other brand ambassadors, coercive and bribed actions towards companies and consumers, and even the management and enforcement of the country’s Do Not Call List.

Now, with all that detailed info out of the way, keep the following tips and guidelines in mind. Also, keep in mind that the FTC does not want to limit or prohibit bloggers working with companies. Rather, they want to regulate the interactions so that clear disclosure is always provided, in order to avoid deceiving both bloggers and their audiences.

FTC Guidelines for Bloggers:

Clearly disclose any relationship with a company or an advertiser. This can be done on a per-post basis, which means that you include a disclosure somewhere at the beginning or end of your post; or, you can provide your disclosure on a site-wide basis. The latter is usually accomplished with a “Disclosure Policy”, which clearly establishes the fact that you work with companies who provide you with products or monetary compensation in exchange for you promoting them and their products/services. (Need help putting together a disclosure page? Generate one at DisclosurePolicy.org!)

Even if you have a site-wide disclosure, you should strongly consider adding a small and brief disclosure to the bottom of every company-related post. You can keep it short and sweet, i.e. “This post is sponsored” and include a link to your site-wide disclosure policy page.

Create an About or Partners page that lists both previous and current relationships with corporations. As an added bonus, this page can also entice prospective advertisers to want to add their name to the list by working with you!

Use a CSS element or the TITLE tag of affiliate links to differentiate them from your regular, non-sponsored links.

Always use your own words when disclosing. Keep your blog and your brand your own by avoiding pre-made disclosure notices and policies. Feel free to use pre-made templates, but you should always revise them so they reflect your voice and fit your brand.

Summary

Many bloggers were very anxious over the FTC’s decision to oversee relationships between bloggers and companies. But ultimately, their involvement and guidance, as well as the resulting FTC blogger guidelines, are here to protect all of us. By disclosing our relationship with companies, our readers have a better understanding of where we’re coming from. Just as importantly, we’re showing our readers we respect them by taking the time to let them know that we were paid or otherwise compensated to promote a company or review its products — and in return, we’ll gain additional respect from our readers. Finally, the FTC guidelines make it simpler for companies and bloggers to create and maintain working relationships, since any “lines in the sand” or “requirements” have already been established by the FTC.

EdenFantasys and I have teamed up to offer three lovely consolation prizes to bloggers who did not attend BlogHer ’10. As you may know, EdenFantasys sponsored the Bringing Sex Out of the Closet panel, had their very own table outside of the panel, and also held a dildo decorating party in the hotel suite. There were samples and swag bags and giveaways — and now we want to share the excitement and sexy love with bloggers here at “home”!

Saturday started off a little nicer, with Victoria and I sleeping in until about 8:00am. Then we rushed to get dressed, made it over to the Hilton in time for breakfast and a brief stint of socializing with bloggers, before regrouping and heading over to Personal: Where’s the Line or the Lie: Storytelling, Memoir and Poetic License, a panel all about authenticity and great story-telling and writing in blogging. The lovely Jory Des Jardins (also a BlogHer co-founder!) headed the panel, and co-moderation was provided by Julie Marsh and our very own Jenny Lawson aka The Bloggess. As expected, the panel was interesting, insightful, heartwarming, and provided its share of laughs and echoes of “Oh, I’ve been there/said that/done that!”.

After the panel concluded, Victoria and I made our way back to the food trough, where hundreds of other bloggers were already swarming for lunch. We weren’t really hungry, but we were curious to see what would be dished up, and mealtimes are always great times for meeting new people – especially since BlogHer is such a big event and attracts so many bloggers that it’s nearly impossible to find an empty table to sit at! As expected, we table-crashed once again, this time meeting up with Erin, whose lovely roommate was Ree Drummond aka The Pioneer Woman! We were on our way out and she was on her way in, only she was stopped by a door guard for not having a pass (c’mon now, The Pioneer Woman so does not need a pass!). Both Victoria and I were all, “Dude, don’t you know who this IS?”, and then begged her for a photo. She complimented Victoria’s hair, mentioned that she reads SexIs, and took our business cards!

The rest of the afternoon passed by in a blur of taxis and food and cupcakes and decorations, as Victoria and I hustled to get the food and last minute decorations prepared for our dildo decorating party, which started at 6:00pm. By 5:00pm Anne West-Church of AIDS Service Center NYC showed up with tons of supplies for condom decorating, as well as white-, milk- and dark-chocolate pops molded and colored to represent penises, vaginas and breasts (complete with nipples!) (to Anne and everyone at ASCnyc.org – thank you so much for your contribution!).

The next two hours flew by! We had a steady stream of women (and the occasional man, including Techy Dad) coming into our hotel suite, and both the dildo decorating table and the condom decorating table were a hit. Colorful dildos and condom earrings mingled with cupcakes, cheese on crackers and a variety of mixed drinks (courtesy of Victoria, our informal bartender). We had several demo products on hand, including our signature Kissas, which our guests were delighted to find in their swag bags. We talked, we chatted, we passed around the demo products, and talked non-stop about sex toys, better sex, and of course, BlogHer and NYC.

At 8:30pm, after the final guests had trickled out, Victoria and I freshened up, threw out whatever trash that was within reach, then headed over to The Volstead, which is a sophisticated restaurant and lounge located on East 54th Street. There we saw The Bloggess again, enjoyed a few drinks and some chit-chat, before we all decided that our time would be much better spent at one of the most highly anticipated BlogHer events, Sparklecorn. Sparklecorn, as the name suggests, is an event that is all about glitter and unicorns. We heard rumors of a unicorn cake, and weren’t disappointed at what Charm City Cakes produced for the event.

Sparklecorn was exactly what we expected: loud, energetic, hip, and sparkly. Very sparkly. I was sporting glittery nail polish, glittery makeup, a shimmery shirt and sparkly headbands, and for good measure I threw up a handful of loose glitter and let it rain down on my hair, face and body prior to leaving the hotel room, so I fit right in. Glow sticks and miniature Microsoft swag bags accentuated all of the glittery goodness, and loud music from the 80s and 90s got people up and moving on the dance floor.

[pictures 0834, 0836]
And believe it or not, we ran into The Pioneer Woman again! She was just as sweet as the first time around, despite looking a bit tired from having such a long day.

As Sparklecorn began to wind down, so did we. It wasn’t even midnight, but it suddenly exhaustion hit us, and so Victoria and I made the rounds to say goodbye to people we recognized and even those we didn’t, and then made our way back to the hotel. On the way in, we ran into our favorite doorman, William, who had been nothing but sweet and gracious to us since we first arrived, and on a whim we tipped him with an EdenFantasys swag bag that was overstuffed with extra goodies.

Finally back in our hotel room, the two of us collapsed in front of the television for a little while, and then began the process of throwing out trash, cleaning up after the party, putting supplies away, and packing. The conclusion of Sparklecorn basically concluded our stay for BlogHer, so it was now time for us to get ready to go home!

EdenFantasys had the pleasure – literally! – of sponsoring BlogHer ‘10, which was held at the Hilton New York in NYC on August 6th – August 7th, 2010. I’m the Off-site Review Program Manager for EdenFantasys, so I was asked to attend in order to network with both current and prospective bloggers. My 10+ years of blogging and vast experience with social networking were an added bonus, and gave me the unique experience of attending BlogHer ’10 as both a company representative and a blogger.

I accompanied Victoria Bowman Steinour, the marketing director and also my boss, and together we arrived and checked in at The Warwick (sidenote: don’t ever stay at this hotel, unless you enjoy paying $400+ a night and receiving poor room service and disrespectful and scornful attitudes from management and front desk clerks) on Thursday, August 5th. We checked out our accommodations – a gorgeous corner suite that easily takes up a good third of the floor we stayed on – and then helped two of Eden Fantasys’ awesome employees unload all of the stuff we needed for panel sponsorship (more about that in a moment), dildo decorating party and general swag giveaways.

Once we were settled in, we changed and then headed over to the Hilton to see what was happening. The People’s Party was set to start at 7:00pm, but when we entered the main lobby of the Hilton there was no signage or any indication of where the party was at. A few minutes and a very nice concierge later, we had directions to the grand ballroom on the third floor, and made our way there.

While The People’s Party was taking place in the ballroom, and was accompanied by delicious food, strong drinks and music, the real excitement was in the bathroom a few doors down, in which The Bloggess had taken up residence. Together, along with numerous bloggers that came and went (some bringing drinks, others bringing Play-doh, almost all bringing business cards, digital cameras and cell phones), we spent about three hours in that bathroom. If I recall correctly, very little excrement of bodily fluids and such took place, as we were all too busy socializing and chatting up The Bloggess.

The bathroom version of The People’s Party wound down, and after finding a cute little grocery store just a block away from our hotel, Victoria and I headed back to our suite, where we unpacked, prepared a lot of stuff that we would need for the weekend, and processed photos (you can view all of our BlogHer ’10 photos on our Flickr Photostream), and by 3:30am were more than happy to call it a night.

Friday started off bright and early, with a brutal wake-up phone call at 6:30am. We jumped out of bed as fast as one can move on three hours of sleep, got ready, and then dashed over to the the Hilton for breakfast (provided by Tropicana and the welcoming keynote. The welcoming keynote was exciting, heartfelt, and definitely made me eager for BlogHer to “officially” kick off. After the keynote came an informal, table version of Speed Dating, which involves bloggers pairing up, introducing themselves to one another, exchanging business cards, and getting to know one another as best as one could do in just a few minutes. Speed Dating took place at each table, which seated ten.

One of the highly anticipated events started up not long after the welcoming keynote and Speed Dating wound down – swag grabbin’ time! In case you’re not familiar with BlogHer, you should know that many well-known and even some lesser-known companies pay substantial amounts of money to be able to set up a booth at BlogHer. The booth remains open during both days of BlogHer, and company representatives are usually present to meet bloggers and talk to them about their company, products, services, and the types of relationships they would like to build with bloggers and social media experts. But the best part, hands down, is the swag. Swag is just a fancy term for the freebies that these companies hand out freely to bloggers who visit their booths. Swag this year included Play-Doh scented perfume, Tempur-Pedic travel pillows, samples of pet food, air fresheners and laundry detergent from P&G Home, and hordes of USB drives (I grabbed up a dozen or so myself). Note: bring at least one large-sized tote bag with you when collecting swag, because you will need it!

BlogHer ’10 featured not one but two areas for sponsors to set up their booths. The areas were separated by a hallway and a floor, and each one took at least an hour to get through, simply because there was so much to see, do, and talk about!

Friday afternoon was spent hitting up several panels (panels are basically speaking engagements where bloggers and other speakers talk about a variety of subjects related to blogging. A lot of the subjects related to blog monetization and social media, as well as writing better blogs, dealing with the negative aspects of blogging (i.e. not-so-constructive criticism and haters), and balancing blogging and working from home with family life.

After the swag collecting and panel hopping, Victoria and I headed back to our hotel suite to get ready for the panel we sponsored, Bringing Sex Out of the Closet, which was led by Twanna Hines. We provided 250 swag bags (full of goodies including our exclusive Kissa), and also had our own booth to set up outside of the room where the panel was being held.

To say that the panel and our booth were a hit is one of the biggest understatements of the year! People kept streaming into the panel, and more people were swarmed around our booth during both set-up and the wrapping up of the panel; and there was a steady supply of people talking to us and checking out our table in between. Our business card drop jar was also quite a hit, since we’re picking not one but 25 bloggers at random to win sexcellent swag bags! Psst… did you miss BlogHer? You still have a chance to win great Eden Fantasys swag! Check out Twanna’s great giveaway over at Funky Brown Chick!

We connected with hundreds of great bloggers, including Techy Dad and his wife The Angel Forever, as well as Cutest Kid Ever, and the lovely Melissa, who was extra lovely in our eyes because she brought us a cookie!

After the panel concluded and we cleaned up after our booth and handed out the rest of the swag (to the lucky bloggers who found EdenFantasys swag bags and Kissas in the swag exchange suite: you’re welcome!), Victoria and I headed back to our hotel suite to prepare for the Gala Welcome Party. We were definitely beat from the energy and pace of the day so far, and I was going hoarse from talking so much at our booth, but we pushed on, glittered ourselves up, and after a brief ten or so minute dozing off session on the sofa while we waited for our dinner (via room service, as we were too tired to go find food ourselves), wolfed down our food and then headed out to get our party on.

We saw all sorts of great creative spark at the Gala Welcome Party, including posters covered with blank speech bubbles for bloggers to write in their own captions (we saw a lot of great ones!), artwork available for auction, paint-it-yourself canvases for bloggers to do some more self-expression on, hundreds of colorful balloons, and The Bloggess, who spent the evening writing up haikus on an authentic pastel pink typewriter for bloggers to take home as souvenirs.

The party began winding down, no one came to claim this pretty red stiletto, so Victoria and I headed back to the hotel suite. We were seriously dragging at this point, but we had swag to pack, arts and crafts supplies to lay out, and a suite to decorate in anticipation of our Dildo Decorating Party, which was set for Saturday at 6:00pm. We had been handing out invitations since our arrival on Thursday afternoon, and wanted to make it an event to remember.

Bed time finally came at another brutal 3:30am, and we couldn’t jump into bed fast enough.
Part 2 coming soon!
