Win a Free Ticket to PressConf 2026 with JetHost!

We have some exciting news: JetHost is a proud sponsor of PressConf 2026, and to celebrate, we’re giving away one free Crew Ticket to this year’s event.

If you’re part of the WordPress ecosystem and want to be in the room where real industry conversations happen, this is your chance.

What Is PressConf?

PressConf is the premier conference for professionals driving the WordPress economy – engineers, entrepreneurs, creators, and business leaders who want to think critically about the internet of today and tomorrow.

Taking place April 8-11, 2026 at the stunning Tempe Mission Palms in Tempe, Arizona, PressConf is unlike any other WordPress event. Talks are intentionally not streamed or recorded – what happens in the room, stays in the room. That’s what makes the conversations so candid, so valuable, and so unlike anything you’d get watching a replay at home.

This year’s event will feature:

  • Main stage sessions with leaders shaping the WordPress ecosystem
  • Honest, candid conversations about the business of WordPress and the future of the open web
  • WonderDay – a full day of fun activities and relaxed networking with fellow attendees (including experiences like golf and electric go-karts!)
  • Official community gatherings and evening events designed to bring the WordPress community together

Last year’s debut event drew 140 WordPress business professionals and, by all accounts, left attendees genuinely moved.

Why We’re Sponsoring?

At JetHost, we’re deeply invested in the WordPress community. PressConf brings together the people who are actually building and leading in this space, and that’s exactly the kind of conversation we want to be a part of. We believe in what this event stands for: real talk, real connections, and a community that doesn’t want to journey alone.

How to Enter

It’s simple. Leave a comment below the article telling us:

    The last PressConf was one of my favorite WordPress conferences ever, and I’d love to come back and experience it again! This year looks even better, which is quite the accomplishment!

    I’ve been a WordPress user since 2004 — before most people had heard of it — and I’ve watched this platform go from a scrappy blogging tool to the backbone of a global economy. Today I run a portfolio of WordPress-powered niche sites solo — pickleball content, hosting reviews, a dating platform — no team, no agency budget, just grinding it out. I’ve learned a lot that way, but I’ve also hit the ceiling of what you can learn alone, and I’m now actively seeking my first professional WordPress developer role. That’s exactly why PressConf matters to me in a way it wouldn’t to someone just passing through. What draws me isn’t the sessions themselves — it’s that they aren’t recorded. That signals something rare: a room full of people willing to say the uncomfortable thing, to actually challenge each other rather than perform for a livestream audience. Raquel’s theme of clarity and challenge is what I need at this specific moment — clarity on where WordPress is actually headed so I can position myself correctly, and real relationships with people who hire, collaborate, and build seriously. I’m not looking for a hallway full of vendors. A conference badge at WordCamp gets you a lanyard. A candid conversation at PressConf gets you a referral, a collaborator, or a job. That’s what I’m after.

    I have been lucky enough to attend PressConf 2025 and represent Multidots. To say it was an impressive and valuable experience is an understatement! This is an amazing opportunity you are offering someone to be a part of an influential and uncensored WordPress event.
    I would love the opportunity to create new relationships and partnerships not just for myself and Multidots, but for our clients.
    Relationships are the lifeblood of our community, and PressConf is the best place to create new ones, strengthen existing, and make exciting plans together for the future.
