+## Setting up your own high-performance WordPress hosting
+
+This presentation is for the [SF WordPress Meetup](http://www.meetup.com/wordpress-sf/events/62877782/).  It's based on a [blog post](http://evansolomon.me/notes/faster-wordpress-multisite-nginx-batcache/) I wrote on setting up a high-performance WordPress server.
+
+It will cover the most important topics (in my opinion) of setting up your WordPress host:
+
+* Setting up a VPS
+* Navigating Linux
+* PHP-FPM
+* nginx
+* MySQL
+* Sending email from a server
+* Installing WordPress
+* Configuring WordPress Multisite
+* Caching with Batcache
+* Measuring your host's performance
+
+
+## Why is it here?
+
+I'm posting it on Github because I've seen it work well for other presetnations, and because it seems like a fun and easy way to make it available.
