BlogHer Food 2011 Day One Recap

Posted On May 20, 2011

This was my first BlogHer conference and I’m glad I came down to Atlanta for it, especially since the main topic was food. It was great mingling with other food bloggers and learning tactics of other members in the blogosphere.

Here are some key takeaways from Day One

  1. Write from the heart. Readers like authenticity. Think of your readers & you will always make the right decision.
  2. “It’s good to have a balance: excessive ranting is bad. There must be something positive about a restaurant,” – Amelia Schaffner
  3. Donna Pierce of @@BlackAmerCooks advises food bloggers to be honest and write negative reviews about restaurants.

I’m looking forward to tomorrow.

I'm a Native New Yorker who now lives in Connecticut. I love food – cooking, eating, taking photos of food, attending cooking demos – all things food, and don’t forget about drinking wine. It could be anywhere – in my hometown, to abroad, anything food and drink goes here.
