2008 spread the word

This is the page detailing everything people can do to help promote WordCamp UK.

This is a non-profit community driven event - there are lots of people helping make this happen, co-ordinated by Tony. You may not be able to dedicate resources to the logistics of the actual event, but even 10 minutes of your time spent doing a few of the suggestions below REALLY WILL HELP WORDCAMP UK!

Here are some ideas to help spread the word, please add any other ideas you may have below.

LETS BE CLEAR ON ONE THING THOUGH, this is NOT a spamming campaign! Just do your bit to make sure no-one misses out on the opportunity of attending (or sponsoring) this years event!!

1) Tell all your friends... obviously!! Anyone from the casual blogger right upto developer and everyone in-between will get a-lot from WordCampUK!

2) Make a post on your blog, with links to this wiki - using the tag 'wordcampuk' if possible.

3) Start a new thread on the forums you visit, and respond accordingly to any responses.

4) Change your forum signature (just for the next few weeks!) to promote WordCampUK, with the date, links to this wiki and the mailing list. Remember that every post/thread you have ever made on that forum will change... This is a great way to spread the word, and takes 30 seconds!

5) Enter your blog, template design or plugin into The Humphrey Awards. NEW - This is going to build up to be a great competition, with awards ceremony to be held during WordCamp UK so get going guys!
