I've not done many speaks so far. But, what I learned in my very small experience is that,

1) Know your audience.
1.1) What they are?
1.2) What tech they worked in or working in?
1.3) What they know about the tech that you presenting to them. ( I had a very horrible day once. That day I selected a very common topic that everyone knows about it.)

2) Do some research on your topic.
2.1) know the latest updates about that tech.
2.2) try to discuss about latest changes or updates.
2.3) be ready for tricky questions.

3) Always integrate FUN. LOTS OF FUN.

So, this is what I learned from my past experiences.
