This past week Syed was given an opportunity to attend Yanik Silver’s Underground Online Seminar 6 as one of the Young Moguls. This event brings together the top online marketers in the industry. The event was held at Gaylord Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland. The speakers shared a lot of valuable information, but unfortunately we cannot share it on the site. Every attendee had to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). Some speakers got the cameras to be turned off, that is how important some of the strategies were.

As the title says, here is the video for my hotel room. The pre-day start tomorrow in the morning. I will keep you guys up to date as the conference progreses.

So not so long ago, I was informed by Michael Dunlop of Retireat21 that I was one of the lucky winners who won the Young Entrepreneurs Scholarship to go to Yanik Silver’s Underground Online Seminar 6 in Washington D.C.

Why am I excited about this event?

The main reason is networking. I will get to network with top guys in the industry like Gary Vaynerchuck, Matt Mickiewicz of Sitepoint, Yanik Silver himself, and many other top entrepreneurs in the industry.

I will keep this post short as I am writing this while sitting at Orlando Airport, but there will be more news about this event on Balkhis through out this week.

Even though I got the conference ticket through the scholarship which was a big expense, a lot of other expenses needed to be covered such as airfare, lodging, food etc. I am very happy and thankful to the two companies that stepped up and they are sponsoring my trip to D.C.

So this past weekend on Feb 20th, I was in Miami for the event known as WordCamp Miami. First of all, I wanted to say that it was a great event. I got to network with some very cool people. I was one of the speakers at the conference. My topic was “WordPress Security”. You can check my presentation below:
