WordPress, the world’s biggest Content Management System (CMS) platform used by 75 million websites and pages, have strengthened WordPress communities all over the world through WordCamps, which are locally-organized conferences dedicated to everything about WordPress. And for the first time since the camp’s initial event in 2006, Iloilo will be hosting its own conference on August 25, 2018 at the Iloilo Convention Center.

WordCamps are grassroots-led, low-cost weekend events organized by volunteer teams. They aim to  bring together WordPress users and enthusiasts of varying skill levels in a welcoming, engaging and safe space for them to get to know each other and network. This is supported by a strict Code of Conduct that is enforced in any WordCamp event.

A usual WordCamp may feature topics on content creation and marketing, plugin and theme development, or just the latest tips or advanced techniques on using and developing on WordPress. Generally, however, topics are determined based on the needs and interests of the local community.

Iloilo’s first WordCamp aims to attract between 200-300 attendees from all over the world. We started with a handful of people and are now steadily growing into an active community. And you could help us flourish!
