This information serves to get people that have not gone to a blog conference to note various factors to remember for when they are at one, speeding up the experience-acquiring process. It is a big point to go early, since the experience may appear to lack something in hindsight if one does not get the chance to see or meet a certain person.

If you're not going to do this you might as well stay at home and watch the sessions online. Ashley K.

Absolutely do your very best to stay at the hotel where the conference is being held. Not only does it save you time, but you’ll definitely be more ‘in the loop’!

Ditto to Lisa – and try to make your card stand out in some way so people will remember you
