Most businesses can benefit from a good Web site, but there's more to looking good on the 'Net than jazzy graphics. Your business Web site needs appropriate content as well. Ineffective Web site content can mean prospective clients pass right over your site, moving on to the next site and business. Speaker Merry Bruns will provide new practical tips on making your content live up to your site graphics and maximizing your content for your customer.

Speaker: Merry Bruns is an online content strategist, editor, and Web writing trainer who focuses on communicating Web content to audiences clearly and with impact. Producing and editing Web sites since 1994, she brings a background in communications, advertising, and journalism to her work. Merry provides in-house training for organizations and has taught "Writing and Editing for the Web" to hundreds of students around the world.

Frequently interviewed about content strategy and Web writing issues, Merry Bruns is also an invited speaker and trainer at Web conferences and meetings across the United States. In Washington, DC, she holds open classes at the National Press Club. In addition, since 1997 Merry has hosted "Content & Coffee," an occasional roundtable at the National Press Club for Web content managers, editors, and writers.

As principal of ScienceSites Communications (http://www.sciencesitescom.com), Merry Bruns has produced and edited Web sites for numerous business, government, educational, and science organizations. Clients for content strategy and training have included Accenture, National Academy of Sciences, BBC London, Porter-Novelli, Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Towers Perrin, American Chemical Society, The World Bank, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Georgetown University, American Petroleum Institute, Textron, Environmental Protection Agency, Seton Hall University, and Harvard Medical School.
