The event was at BlueFrog in Lower Parel, oh man one of the most happening places in Mumbai and when I told hubby about the venue, he was like, THE BlueFrog!!! The event was a full day event scheduled for a Saturday. Left home early to reach on time, registered for the early 50's, yes they had a Moto G for one of the first 50 registers. Joined few of the fellow bloggers. Then was the official registeration at the Indiblogger and Bigrock registration desks, where we were handed over a bag full of goodies.After the breakfast, the event started off with a rock band by Inditeam, to break the morning blues and gear us up for a packed day full of talks on blogging.
We were introduced to Bigrock the sponsor of the event. Who else is familiar to Domain, hosting and websites than bloggers. As a blogger we are always behind traffic to our blog and yes we know a blog with domain name always attracts more traffic.
