Whether you are hosting a concert, exhibition, conference or any other event online you’ll need to create a website for it.
The Bamboo Juice website has been up for a few weeks. If you visit the Bamboo Juice conference website, you’ll see kind of things you should have on your own event site.
As you’ll see on the Bamboo Juice site, the name, date, time and location of your event should be clear. If people don’t know when or where your event is, how can they attend?
Think of the parts of your event that will make people want to attend – for example: if famous people are attending or if you are giving away free stuff to attendees – and make sure these are clear to visitors to the site. In the case of the Bamboo Juice site, speakers – web experts like Paul Boag and Jeremy Keith – are clearly visible, as people interested in web design and development will buy tickets to hear them speak.
You’ll also need to make sure your website tells people how they can attend your event. If they need to buy tickets, make sure the website or phone number where you can buy tickets from is easy to find on your site. There are a number of websites which will enable you to sell tickets for your event online. Bamboo Juice is using StubMatic.com.
If you need more inspiration, find websites for events which are similar to yours. Obviously, don’t copy them! But see if there’s any key things you should include on your event website.
