Are You Using the Right Content Strategy for Your Website?

Engaging content captures the attention of visitors to your website and 
keeps them coming back. The key to engagement is not simply deciding what
you want to publish or promote. It is discovering what your audience needs
and wants and then using that information to develop and implement the right
content strategy to achieve your website or business goals.

Please join DC Web Women for a panel discussion outlining best practices,
tips, and techniques for defining, developing, and managing online content
strategy.

When: Thursday, June 24   
Time: 6:30 to 9 p.m. 
Place: The Matrix Group International, 2711 Jefferson Davis Highway, Suite 1200, Arlington, VA 22202-4015 (see http://www.matrixgroup.net)
