Becoming an expert in the fields of blogging and utilizing social media is no easy task, especially given the stout competition faced in every imaginable niche. Going it alone is no easy task and you should take advantage of every tool at your disposal in your efforts to grow and improve.
The good news is that there is no need to go it alone! The European continent is a relatively small place, allowing some of the best and brightest minds in the industry to quickly converge. If you’re interested in acquainting yourself with your colleagues and exploring exciting new opportunities, here are five European blogging and social media conferences that you should consider visiting:
1. HR Tech Europe 2012 (Amsterdam)
The current wave of change sweeping over technological industries and fields is focused in a big way on the combining of software, hardware and collaborative tools aimed at helping people to work together in order to achieve more and no gathering offers the unique focus on this evolving aspect of business like HR Tech Europe, one of the continent’s most valuable conferences where this subject is concerned.
Whether you’re a blogger, a freelancer or a web or software developer, learning how to better collaborate with your peers in the interest of inviting new opportunities for prosperity is at the heart of what it means to be successful in today’s technology landscape. HR Tech Europe 2012 presents attendees with the opportunity to learn and grow in their field, all the while rubbing shoulders with investors, colleagues and potential new customers!

2. The Hive European Blogger Conference (Berlin)
Touted as the first European conference aimed exclusively at bloggers, The Hive is set to take place on May 19 and 20 in Berlin, Germany. Offering only a light focus on blog design and development, The Hive’s real goal is to bring together writers of all varieties in order to encourage inspiration and innovation in technique and topics.
Given its wide spectrum, The Hive presents opportunities for mommy bloggers, foodies, entertainment and style critics, travel writers and more, with panels intended to help you with both the technique and style of your writing, no matter your niche! A Saturday night party to end the weekend promises to help solidify connections made during the event in the name of future collaboration or just casual friendship.

4. Search Marketing Expo (SMX) London
A hugely important but often overlooked aspect of blogging is search engine optimization and marketing, the art of utilizing Google and friends to bring more and better targeted traffic to your blog. The SMX London event addresses this gap by providing the people and tools necessary to help you to take your search engine efforts to the next level.
Hosted by none other than Google’s own Amit Singhal, SMX London promises insight from the engineers and coders behind the world’s biggest search engine itself, providing you with the skills to leverage search engine queries into more high quality, targeted traffic than you ever thought possible!

Whether you sell advertising space or push products on your blog, Conversion Conference can help you to learn how to increase your site’s conversions in the name of taking your business to the next level.
Conclusion
No matter what area of blogging and social media your business fits into and where in Europe you may currently be, incredible options for networking and learning abound all around you! Keeping in mind that a stagnant business is one quickly left behind by its competitors, consider attending an event that has the potential to help you to take your blogging endeavors further than you’ve ever imagined!
