I will be speaking at Houston’s first WordCamp, a one day camp dedicated to serving beginner to advanced, businesses to bloggers, and everyone in between.

My topic will be “Optimizing for Performance” - How to make your WordPress Blog Faster and Scalable. The discussion will include tips for installing and configuring the W3 Total Cache plugin and how to take advantage of APC, X-Cache, or eAccelerator opcode caching, using efficient CSS selectors and theme files, and how to maximize your MySql database for performance.
