I’ve never been to a BlogHer conference before and am so excited to be able to go and learn and of course, network! With over 3000 people worldwide attending, this will be an amazing opportunity!

Did you know that women represent 70% of all the buying decisions around the world and social media plays a huge part of this Blogher gathers some of the most influencial bloggers in social media. There was more than 40,000 tweets with the blogher hashtag in the two day period in 2011.
