If you’ve been around WordPress for a while, you know Mary Job by her tireless contributions to the WordPress community personally and virtually, across two, and now three, continents. And we couldn’t be more thrilled to tell you that, this October, Mary Job is in the house!
A seasoned WordPress advocate and educator who built the Nigerian WordPress community singlehandedly and has now moved to Europe, Mary has spent years helping freelancers and small business owners build sites that actually work—without burning out in the process.
In her talk, The Real Cost of Staying Open: WordPress Strategies for Freelancers and Business Owners, you’ll get a look at the very real but often overlooked emotional, financial, and technical challenges of running a website long term—and how to meet those challenges with grace and courage.
