Translations: 1 – 20 / 69
EUdict (European dictionary) is a collection of online dictionaries for the languages spoken mostly in Europe. These dictionaries are the result of the work of many authors who worked very hard and finally offered their product free of charge on the internet thus making it easier to all of us to communicate with each other. Some of the dictionaries have only a few thousand words, others have more than 320,000. Some of the words may be incorrectly translated or mistyped.
Esperanto is only partially translated. Please help us improve this site by translating its interface.
Total number of language pairs: 536
Total number of translations (in millions): 15
New: Russian<>Georgian
Improved: English<>French, English<>Italian, French<>Italian
There are several ways to use this dictionary. The most common way is by word input (you must know which language the word is in) but you can also use your browser's search box and bookmarklets (or favelets).
Look at the complete list of languages: Available language pairs
There are two Japanese-English (and Japanese-French) dictionaries and one contains Kanji and Kana (Kana in English and French pair due to improved searching). For the same reason the Chinese dictionary contains traditional and simplified Chinese terms on one side and Pinyin and English terms on the other.
Perhaps the best way to enable dictionary search is through integration into the search field of your browser. To add EUdict alongside Google, Yahoo!, Amazon and other search engines in Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer, simply click on link after the title Browser integration, select appropriate language pair and confirm your decision. And you're ready to go; select EUdict from the drop-down list in search field (Firefox) or address bar (IE), input a word and press Enter. In Chrome, first click on a language pair and change the search keyword in the field 'Keyword' to a keyword (eg: 'eudict'). Afterwards, you simply type the chosen keyword in the address bar to start the search in the chosen dictionary.
If you want to type a character which isn't on your keyboard, simply pick it from a list of special characters. If you are unable to add a bookmarklet in Mozilla Firefox according to the instructions above, there is another way; right click on a link and select Bookmark this link… Now you can drag this link from Bookmarks to the Bookmarks Toolbar.
Instead of clicking the Search button, just press Enter. Although EUdict can't translate complete sentences, it can translate several words at once if you separate them with spaces or commas. Sometimes you can find translation results directly from Google by typing: eudict word. If you are searching for a word in Japanese (Kanji) dictionary and not receiving any results, try without Kana (term in brackets). If you are searching for a word in the Chinese dictionary and not receiving any results, try without Pinyin (term in brackets). Disable spellchecking in Firefox by going to Tools → Options → Advanced → Check my spelling as I type. Why not add a EUdict search form to your web site? Form

The Patriots top 3 linebackers are Jerod Mayo, Dont'a Hightower, and Jamie Collins. On paper, that trio is arguably the best trio of linebackers in the NFL. In the grand scheme of things, that's not nearly as important because as we saw the last two years that 1 major injury can really wreck the initial plan. At a position that is physically demanding, injuries are going to happen. You can't predict injuries, but you certainly can prepare your team to be able to weather through that.
Which brings up the topic of linebacker depth. One of the most common phrases in terms of a group of people working to achieve the same goal is, "You're only as good as your weakest link". If an injury should strike and one of the top 3 linebackers misses time during the season (all 3 missed at least 1 game in the 2014 season), the team needs to have readily available options to be able to at least be serviceable enough for the Patriots defense to still do 90% of what they would do with their normal starters in. In addition, these players would need to be able to perform on at least 2 Special Teams units, if not all 4.
Contestants: James Morris, Dane Fletcher, Dekoda Watson, Deontae Skinner, Matthew Wells, Darius Fleming
In terms of experience, Dane Fletcher has seen the most time in the Patriots system. After making it as an UDFA in 2010, Fletcher was a valuable backup to the team for four years before signing a 1-year deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Fletcher doesn't stand out at any particular aspect, but can do everything well enough that the Patriots don't have to completely change schemes. Another player with a very good chance of making it is over Iowa linebacker James Morris. He was having an excellent 2014 camp from all reports and had a shot to make the roster before his season prematurely ended at the end of preseason. He's going to have to prove that he's healthy and still produce at the same level as last year's camp to make it. I do believe he is a future starter, whether it's in New England or somewhere else.
Two players from that list will likely make the team if Belichick carries 5 linebackers on the active roster and he may opt to carry 6 depending on how camp rolls out. Another player with an intriguing skill set is rookie Matt Wells. Not many people knew about Wells in the pre-draft process, but after the Patriots made the selection I definitely liked the pick. Wells is a linebacker that can cover like a defensive back, even outperforming 1st rd pick Shaq Thompson according to Pro Football Focus. Belichick has always been looking for a Safety-Linebacker hybrid for his sub packages, and this could be the guy. At the end of the day, Wells is a rookie and will need to show off his 4.44 speed on special teams and covering tight ends.
Skinner and Watson have NFL experience and can contribute on Special Teams. Skinner was a solid backup, picking up for Jamie Collins and Dont'a Hightower when they battled injuries early in the 2014 season. He became phased out of the game plan and off the roster when the Patriots traded for both Akeem Ayers and Jonathan Casillas. Now in his second year in the system, it's make or break for him. He's still practice squad eligible and managed to sneak onto there when the Patriots waived him midseason.
Projected Winners: James Morris, Matthew Wells, Darius Fleming
I'm going with 6 linebackers on the active roster. Depending on how the other positions take care of themselves, the Patriots might not be able to carry that many. Morris and Fletcher can back up all 3 linebacker positions in the defense while also playing inside in 3-4 looks. Wells projects to be a sub player and a core special teamer (4-unit), but might not see the field against run-heavy opponents (e.g. Dallas Cowboys). With Mayo and Hightower battling back from major knee and shoulder injuries, the guys playing behind them could be the difference for the Patriots in 2015.

Primates: The Fearless Science of Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey, and Biruté Galdikas (Hardcover)
Jim Ottaviani returns with an action-packed account of the three greatest primatologists of the last century: Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey, and Biruté Galdikas. These three ground-breaking researchers were all students of the great Louis Leakey, and each made profound contributions to primatology—and to our own understanding of ourselves.
Tackling Goodall, Fossey, and Galdikas in turn, and covering the highlights of their respective careers, Primates is an accessible, entertaining, and informative look at the field of primatology and at the lives of three of the most remarkable women scientists of the twentieth century. Thanks to the charming and inviting illustrations by Maris Wicks, this is a nonfiction graphic novel with broad appeal.
Jim Ottaviani has written fifteen (and counting) graphic novels about scientists. His books include Naturalist (with E.O. Wilson), Astronauts: Women on the Final Frontier, Hawking, The Imitation Game, a biography of Alan Turing, Primates, about Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey, and Biruté Galdikas; and Feynman, about the Nobel-prize winning physicist, artist, and raconteur. His books are New York Times bestsellers, have been translated into a dozen languages, and have received praise from publications ranging from Nature and Physics World to Entertainment Weekly and Variety.
Jim lives in Michigan and comes to comics via careers in nuclear engineering and librarianship.
Maris Wicks lives in sunny Somerville, Massachusetts. She is the author behind Human Body Theater, as well as the illustrator of New York Times Bestselling Primates, with Jim Ottaviani. Wicks has also created comics for Spongebob Comics, DC and Marvel. When Maris is not drawing comics, she can be found prepping slides for her collection of vintage microscopes.
"An accessible introduction to Goodall's, Fossey's and Galdikas' lives and work." —Kirkus Reviews
"A graphic format admirably propels this lightly fictionalized group biography." —The Horn Book
"Presented as dedicated, iconoclastic, and profoundly in awe of the creatures around them, Goodall, Fossey, and Galdikas are inspiring figures, and Ottaviani does a first-rate job of dangling enough tantalizing tidbits to pique readers' interest in the topic." —Booklist
"The story of how each of these women loved primates and lived among them to study their behavior is compelling, and might inspire a whole new generation of scientists to follow in their footsteps." —School Library Journal
"This is an inviting introduction that will undoubtedly lure many readers into further investigation of this groundbreaking fieldwork." —BCCB
"Splendid." —The Miami Herald on Feynman
"Entertaining and informative." —Science on Feynman
"Lovely." —Newsday on Feynman
"Captures the jazzy flow of Feynman's life in its spare lines." —USA Today on Feynman
"These images capture with remarkable sensitivity the essence of Feynman's character. The comic-book picture somehow comes to life and speaks with the voice of the real Feynman." —Freeman Dyson, The New York Review of Books on Feynman

MANAGING Director Skyway Aviation handling Company (SAHCO), Mr. Basil Agboarumi have restated the need for government to look into handling companies' plea to get duty waivers on importation of aviation and spares explaining that like aircraft, equipment are expensive and not off the shelf buys and cost millions in foreign exchange.
This is just as he has identified heavy charges in Nigeria as part of the hindrances militating against export business in the country stressing that something needs to be done to improve exports and earn foreign exchange in the country.
Agboarumi also said they have sent documentation and representation to the Ministry of Aviation and Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) in hopes that the issue can be looked at and given speedy approval and implementation.
SAHCO boss said,"We felt that no matter what the government is doing for the airlines, ground handling should be included and benefit from it too. It is just the same way aircraft are gotten from abroad that is our own are brought in because none of our equipment is manufactured in Nigeria. We also place orders so that the manufacturers do them. We pay quite a lot of money to get in our handling equipment. We believe that what should be done is that same kind of waivers that the airlines are enjoying should also be extended to us to make life easier for us
"…we are taking our case to the government, Ministry of Aviation and the NCAA as the representative of government in the aviation industry. The last point was NCAA requesting for some information from us and some of the things that we learnt has to do with the issues have been raised in some higher places and they needed to submit data and positions. So we submitted our position and I believe that they have taken it from us and we are expecting a feedback from government in that regard. We believe governments should look at us.
On how much SAHCO can save if given waiver on import duties, he estimated huge sums expressing sadness that they have used as much as N36 million to clear just one equipment
"It is huge. Everything we bring in things. We spent N36 million to clear one of our equipment recently. Sometimes, you have some of our equipment that goes as much as one million Dollars. We have equipment like that.
"As I talk to you, there are equipment we placed orders for since early 2020. By the time pandemic started, we still wanted to go on but we couldn't raise funds. There was one that finished manufacturing and we couldn't have money to pay, so they have to give it to another ground handling company. Sometimes, it takes about 6 months to produce ground handling equipment. These are some of the challenges. We fabricate those ones we have the capacity to do."
The SAHCO boss also spoke on the increase in cost of exporting products and what can be done to control it which he lamented that Nigeria has been receiving without giving out but was now waking up as export was the sure way to earn forex.
According to him, charges are a major reason the status quo is as it is right now
He said," Now we are beginning to wake up because if you must make forex, you have to export. The more challenge and reason why we don't have forex is because the rate at which they were selling oil has reduced. Immediately that happened, it affected our earnings.
"…The challenge is charges. Some operations are charged. I have heard some airlines cry out that they bring in things and that they cannot take things out. That they even preferred to go out empty than take something from here because of the taxes that they need to pay on a particular thing. It is a question that the government needs to answer. Those shipping things out of the country should understand that they are going to compete with other abroad.
"So what is the essence of shopping things and it cannot compete with prizes in other parts of the world. It has to be competitive world and aviation is a global best practice. The market is also becoming smaller because with internet you can buy anything anywhere in the world. If you need to purchase anything, you have to check if it will be competitive in terms of price abroad."

The Fokker F-27 twin-engine aircraft slammed into a wheat field on the outskirts of the city of Multan two or three minutes after takeoff for Lahore, spiraling in the air before it hit the ground and burst into flames, witnesses said.
"All 41 passengers and four crew members on board the plane have died," said Iftikhar Babar, the district coordination officer for Multan, which lies about 650 kilometers (400 miles) southwest of the capital, Islamabad.
Malik Bashir, PIA's station manager at Multan airport, confirmed there were no survivors. He said the cause of the crash was not yet known, but ruled out the possibility of a terrorist attack on the state's carrier's plane.
A female flight attendant who was pulled alive from the plane's wreckage died later at a hospital, airline security official Mohammed Iqbal said.
A PIA emergency department official who identified himself with the single name, Bashir, said the dead passengers were 33 men and eight women, all Pakistani. They included two army brigadiers, two judges of the High Court in Lahore and the head of a state-run university in Multan. Two male pilots and two air hostesses also died, he said.
President Gen. Pervez Musharraf expressed grief over the crash and ordered an investigation to determine the cause, state-run Pakistan Television reported.
Bashir said flight PK-688 took off normally on a flight to Lahore, the capital of eastern Punjab province, at around 12:05 p.m.
"Whatever happened to it was after takeoff," he said. "The plane has burned completely."
Plane debris, newspapers, cold drink bottles and clothes littered the crash site, about three kilometers (two miles) from Multan airport. Emergency workers wore face masks to protect against thick black smoke and the smell of burning oil and flesh.
After firefighters doused the fire, rescuers pulled bodies from the smoldering wreckage. The fire left the plane's fuselage a blackened hulk and its seared tail lay on its side.
Fifteen bodies were recovered and taken to the morgue at state-run Nishtar Hospital in Multan, said Mohammed Irafan, a doctor with Edhi Foundation, a Pakistani charity that responds to emergencies.
About 500 relatives of the dead gathered at the hospital to claim the bodies of loved ones for burial. Grieving women wept in anguish and beat their chests as they attempted to identify bodies from clothing and other belongings.
At least five bodies have been claimed by relatives but many were burned beyond recognition, said Dr. Gul Nawaz.
Mohammed Nadeem, a jeweler who lives near the crash site, said the plane was rotating sideways in the air before it hit the ground and went up in flames.
"There was a huge explosion after the plane hit the ground," he said.
Another witness said the plane hit the ground with a huge thud and its wreckage caught fire and caused a fire at a nearby power line.
"The plane begin to come down abruptly. Then it hit the ground. Then there were flames and dust," said Arshad Gujjar, 35, who had been cutting a tree in a nearby orchard.
At least eight fire trucks helped put out the blazing wreckage. Police and army troops shouted orders at hundreds of onlookers from nearby villages to stay away to allow emergency workers to do their job.
The crash could put PIA's safety record under close scrutiny.
The airline has reported a number of emergency landings in recent years and in December 2004, several passengers on a domestic flight were injured when one of its jets suddenly dipped, fearing a midair collision with another plane.
In August 1989, another PIA Fokker, with 54 people onboard, went down in Pakistan's Himalayan north on a domestic flight. The plane's wreckage was never found.
In September 1992, a PIA Airbus A300 crashed into a mountain in Nepal, killing all 167 people on board. Investigators found the plane was flying flying 1,500 feet (500 meters) lower than it reported as it approached Katmandu airport.
In February 2003, a Fokker F-27 of the Pakistan Air Force crashed in mountains near the northwestern city of Kohat, killing 17 senior officials including the then-air force chief Mushaf Ali Mir.Güncelleme Tarihi: 20 Eylül 2018, 18:16

From flickering fireflies to lowly dung beetles, insects are vanishing
As a boy in the 1960s, David Wagner would run around his family's Missouri farm with a glass jar clutched in his hand, scooping flickering fireflies out of the sky.
"We could fill it up and put it by our bedside at night," says Wagner, now an entomologist.
That's all gone, the family farm now paved over with new homes and manicured lawns. And Wagner's beloved fireflies – like so many insects worldwide – have largely vanished in what scientists are calling the global Insect Apocalypse.
As human activities rapidly transform the planet, the global insect population is declining at an unprecedented rate of up to 2% per year. Amid deforestation, pesticide use, artificial light pollution and climate change, these critters are struggling — along with the crops, flowers and other animals that rely on them to survive.
"Insects are the food that make all the birds and make all the fish," said Wagner, who works at the University of Connecticut. "They're the fabric tethering together every freshwater and terrestrial ecosystem across the planet."
It's easy to think insects are doing OK. After all, they're nearly everywhere — crawling through rainforest canopy, burrowing into soil, skimming freshwater ponds or, of course, flitting through the air.
On the biological "tree of life" — which classifies organisms to describe their evolutionary and genetic relationship to one another — insects fall under the branch, or phylum, called Arthropods, one of the 40 branches of the Animal Kingdom.
In terms of diversity, insects are unrivaled, representing two-thirds of the world's more than 1.5 million documented animal species with millions more bugs likely still undiscovered, scientists say. By comparison, there are roughly 73,000 vertebrates, or animals with a backbone from humans to birds and fish — these represent less than 5% of the known Animal Kingdom, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Their importance to the environment can't be understated, scientists say. Insects are crucial to the food web, feeding birds, reptiles and mammals such as bats. For some animals, bugs are simply a treat. Plant-eating orangutans delight in slurping up termites from a teeming hill. Humans, too, see some 2,000 species of insects as food.
But insects are so much more than food. Farmers depend on these critters pollinating crops and churning soil to keep it healthy, among other activities.
- Insects pollinate more than 75% of global crops, a service valued at up to US$577 billion per year, the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) says.
- In the United States, insects perform services valued in 2006 at an estimated US$57 billion per year, according to a study in the journal BioScience.
- Dung beetles alone are worth some US$380 million per year to the U.S. cattle industry for their work breaking down manure and churning rangeland soil, the study found.
With fewer insects, "we'd have less food," said ecologist Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex. "We'd see yields dropping of all of these crops."
And in nature, about 80% of wild plants rely on insects for pollination. "If insects continue to decline," Goulson said, "expect some pretty dire consequences for ecosystems generally — and for people."
Describing a stroll through Costa Rica's Area de Conservacion Guanacaste rainforest, evolutionary ecologist Daniel Janzen in 2019 wrote: "Gone are the spiderwebs that decades back entangled those leaves. Gone is the nighttime sparkle in the leaves reflected from thousands of lycosid spider eyes."
The world has lost 5% to 10% of all insect species in the last 150 years — or between 250,000 and 500,000 species, according to a February 2020 study in the journal Biological Conservation. Those losses are continuing, though estimates vary due to patchy data as well as uncertainty over how many insects exist.
In the tropics, insects can be "extremely hard to identify, because there are vastly more species than (we) are used to," Janzen, a University of Pennsylvania professor, told Reuters. "There are more species within 100 kilometres of my dwelling in a national park in northwestern Costa Rica than in all of Europe."
Not knowing exactly what's out there makes it harder to detect trouble. One April 2020 analysis in the journal Science suggested the planet is losing about 9% of its land-dwelling insect population each decade. Another January 2021 paper tried to paint a clearer picture by synthesizing more than 80 insect studies and found that insect abundance is declining around 1% to 2% per year. For comparison, the human population is growing at slightly less than 1% per year.
"Even at the low end of 1% a year, after just 40 years you're down more than one-third of species and one-third of individuals — a third of the entire tree of life lost," said Wagner, who led the 2021 metastudy, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
But the reality is likely worse. Wagner's team offered an "incredibly conservative" loss estimate, he said, noting that many insect studies are conducted in protected areas such as nature reserves. Degraded farmland or cities would likely reveal far fewer insects.
The demise of insects can't be attributed to any single cause. Populations are facing simultaneous threats, from habitat loss and industrial farming to climate change. Nitrogen overloading from sewage and fertilizers has turned wetlands into dead zones; artificial light is flooding out nighttime skies; and the growth of urban areas has led to concrete sprawl.
"Until recently, loss of land was the single greatest driver" of the decline, Wagner said. "But climate change is becoming a far more severe and ominous threat by drying out parts of the planet that were chronically wet. And that is absolutely catastrophic for a lot of insects."
The introduction of non-native plants, which can dominate new environments, has also hurt insects. Because many insects have evolved to feed on or fertilize a single plant species, the disruption of the plant world can have an outsized effect. For example, the Tegeticula moth species pollinates California's famed Joshua trees, while the succulent is the only food source for the moth's offspring. If Joshua trees were to disappear, so too could the moth. And vice versa.
While the situation is bleak for insects at large, a few types of insects are thriving.
"It's generally the pest insects that are thriving because they're the ones that breed faster and are favored by human conditions, like all the waste we produce for them to lay their eggs in," said Sussex's Goulson.
Climate change is also giving some nuisance species a boost. Rising temperatures are driving major outbreaks of mountain pine bark beetles, which in two decades have decimated roughly 100,000 square miles (260,000 square kilometres) of North American forest. And with warmer, wetter weather, two disease-spreading mosquitoes Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are expected to expand in Asia, North America and Europe, putting an additional 2.3 billion people at risk from dengue fever by 2080, a June 2019 Nature Microbiology study estimated.
As insects go, so go their predators.
In North America, nearly all songbirds feed insects to their young. But since 1970, the number of birds in the United States and Canada has fallen by 29%, or roughly 2.9 billion, which scientists theorize is tied to having fewer insects in the world. Some research also has linked insecticide use with declines in barn swallows, house martins, and swifts.
"Nature is just eroding away very slowly," Wagner said. As insects disappear, "we're losing the limbs and the twigs of the tree of life. We're tearing it apart. And we're leaving behind a very simplified and ugly tree."

Opuntia consolea falcata
Cultivation and propagation: Consolea falcata is a much decorative cactus seldom found in cultivation. It is a tropical summer grower species that offers no cultivation difficulties. This cactus can be grown as a shrub or miniature tree and may look attractive as it. Its green joints and yellow-orange flowers provide a striking accent for an otherwise dormant cactus garden.
Soil: It will grow in any kind of drained soil, and will resist droughts, but prefers regular waterings. In pot culture use a draining substratum, as it is sensitive to rottenness when in presence of humidity and low temperatures. Let the soil dry out between waterings.
Repotting: Repot in the spring, when their roots become cramped. Generally, they should be repotted every other year in order to provide fresh soil. After repotting, do not water for a week or more.
Water: In summer, during the vegetative period, it must be regularly watered, but allowing the substratum to completely dry up before irrigating again (but do not overwater); In winter, it's to be kept dry. Preferable not to water on overcast days, humid days or cold winter days.
Hardiness: It is not a frost resistant cactus, hardy to -2° C or less if very dry. However, in cultivation it is better not to expose it to temperatures lower than -5° C, even if in an aerated and protected location, in order to avoid the formation of anti-aesthetic spots on the epidermis. In presence of high atmospheric humidity avoid any frost as it is particularly sensitive to root rot. It can handle extremely high temperatures in summer.
Exposure: Outside full sun or afternoon shade (but adapts to shade too), inside needs bright light, and some direct sun.

2. Domain authority and page authority. Next, you should learn about domain authority and page authority, and how they predict your site's search rankings. Here's the basic idea; your site's domain authority is a proprietary score, provided by Moz, of how "trustworthy" your domain is. It's calculated based on the quantity and quality of inbound links to your website. The higher it is, the higher all your pages across your domain are likely to rank in organic search results. Page authority is very similar, but page-specific, and you can use it to engineer a link architecture that strategically favors some of your pages over others. Authority depends on the authority and volume of inbound links.
What's the authority of your website or webpage, or any other page on the internet for that matter where you're attempting to gain visibility? Authority is an important component of trust, and it relies heavily on quality links coming from websites that Google already trusts. Authority largely relates to the off-page optimization discipline of SEO that occurs away from the webpage as opposed to the on-page optimization that occurs directly on the webpage.
These 3 step milestone shows how your reach out to your market, turn them into loyal customers and use them to promote your business and get new customers. This is a long process because you need to build a brand and reputation. You also need good risk management plan to avoid any issues that could destroy your company and eventually push customers away. Despite the difficult, this is the cheapest and most reliable marketing strategy any business could apply. After all, an authentic feedback from customers is a more powerful tool to grow your business than sales pitch even from your best salesperson.
Example: A blogger John Doe writes a very interesting article about a sports event. Another blogger Samantha Smith doesn't agree with John's article and writes about it in another article for an online magazine. She links to John's article, so that her readers can understand both point of views. John's blog gets a valuable backlink. On the other hand, Samantha's article gets popular and many other websites link to her article. Samantha's website gets many new backlinks. Even though John only got one backlink for his article, the value of his backlink is increased by the backlinks Samantha's article generated.
Just think about any relationship for a moment. How long you've known a person is incredibly important. It's not the be-all-end-all, but it is fundamental to trust. If you've known someone for years and years and other people that you know who you already trust can vouch for that person, then you're far more likely to trust them, right? But if you've just met someone, and haven't really vetted them so to speak, how can you possibly trust them?
While there are several platforms for doing this, clearly YouTube is the most popular for doing this. However, video marketing is also a great form of both content marketing and SEO on its own. It can help to provide visibility for several different ventures, and if the video is valuable enough in its message and content, it will be shared and liked by droves, pushing up the authority of that video through the roof.
Such an enlightening post! Thanks for revealing those sources, Brian. This really has opened up my mind to the new ideas. I have read many articles about SEO, especially the ones in my country, most of them don't really tell how to increase your presence in search engines. But today I found this page, which gave me much more valuable insights. Definitely going to try your tips..
When you comment on a blog post, you are usually allowed to include a link back to your website. This is often abused by spammers and can become a negative link building tool. But if you post genuine comments on high-quality blog posts, there can be some value in sharing links, as it can drive traffic to your site and increase the visibility of your brand.
If you're new to internet marketing and wish to get online as quickly and inexpensively as possible you can start with a social media platform like Facebook - you can create a business Facebook page in less than an hour. However, if you want more control over your online presence, a customized website is more appropriate. Ideally you should have both a website and a social media presence, with each linking to the other.
Video advertising - This type of advertising in terms of digital/online means are advertisements that play on online videos e.g. YouTube videos. This type of marketing has seen an increase in popularity over time.[51] Online Video Advertising usually consists of three types: Pre-Roll advertisements which play before the video is watched, Mid-Roll advertisements which play during the video, or Post-Roll advertisements which play after the video is watched.[52] Post-roll advertisements were shown to have better brand recognition in relation to the other types, where-as "ad-context congruity/incongruity plays an important role in reinforcing ad memorability".[51] Due to selective attention from viewers, there is the likelihood that the message may not be received.[53] The main advantage of video advertising is that it disrupts the viewing experience of the video and therefore there is a difficulty in attempting to avoid them. How a consumer interacts with online video advertising can come down to three stages: Pre attention, attention, and behavioural decision.[54] These online advertisements give the brand/business options and choices. These consist of length, position, adjacent video content which all directly affect the effectiveness of the produced advertisement time,[51] therefore manipulating these variables will yield different results. Length of the advertisement has shown to affect memorability where-as longer duration resulted in increased brand recognition.[51] This type of advertising, due to its nature of interruption of the viewer, it is likely that the consumer may feel as if their experience is being interrupted or invaded, creating negative perception of the brand.[51] These advertisements are also available to be shared by the viewers, adding to the attractiveness of this platform. Sharing these videos can be equated to the online version of word by mouth marketing, extending number of people reached.[55] Sharing videos creates six different outcomes: these being "pleasure, affection, inclusion, escape, relaxation, and control".[51] As well, videos that have entertainment value are more likely to be shared, yet pleasure is the strongest motivator to pass videos on. Creating a 'viral' trend from mass amount of a brands advertisement can maximize the outcome of an online video advert whether it be positive or a negative outcome.
Was reviewing some competitive data and thought this was pretty interesting. I ran a batch analysis on Ahrefs of competitors. See attached screenshot. With just 603 backlinks, Our site is ranking up there with sites with 2x, 3x, 10x the number of backlinks/unique ips. Guessing some of this authority is coming from the backlinks program and general good quality of those links. Hard to speculate but nice to see. Ben R.
A backlink is a reference comparable to a citation. The quantity, quality, and relevance of backlinks for a web page are among the factors that search engines like Google evaluate in order to estimate how important the page is.[2][3] PageRank calculates the score for each web page based on how all the web pages are connected among themselves, and is one of the variables that Google Search uses to determine how high a web page should go in search results.[4] This weighting of backlinks is analogous to citation analysis of books, scholarly papers, and academic journals.[1][3] A Topical PageRank has been researched and implemented as well, which gives more weight to backlinks coming from the page of a same topic as a target page. [5]
If you're using SEM as a strategy, you'll need to test and evaluate your keywords. A good rule of thumb is that for every 100 clicks you get, you'll get between 3 and 10 enquiries. So, to conduct an efficient test, you'll want to test around 1,000 clicks. That means setting your budget for Adwords at 1,000 times the cost of the click. If you find that this is going to cost too much, you'll need to find other keywords or a different marketing strategy.
As an Internet marketing strategy, SEO considers how search engines work, the computer programmed algorithms which dictate search engine behavior, what people search for, the actual search terms or keywords typed into search engines, and which search engines are preferred by their targeted audience. Optimizing a website may involve editing its content, adding content, doing HTML, and associated coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and to remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines. Promoting a site to increase the number of backlinks, or inbound links, is another SEO tactic. By May 2015, mobile search had surpassed desktop search.[3] In 2015, it was reported that Google is developing and promoting mobile search as a key feature within future products. In response, many brands are beginning to take a different approach to their Internet marketing strategies.[4]
This will help you replicate their best backlinks and better understand what methods they are using to promote their website. If they are getting links through guest blogging, try to become a guest author on the same websites. If most of their links come from blog reviews, get in touch with those bloggers and offer them a trial to test your tool. Eventually, they might write a review about it.
The development of digital marketing is inseparable from technology development. One of the key points in the start of was in 1971, where Ray Tomlinson sent the very first email and his technology set the platform to allow people to send and receive files through different machines.[8] However, the more recognisable period as being the start of Digital Marketing is 1990 as this was where the Archie search engine was created as an index for FTP sites. In the 1980s, the storage capacity of computer was already big enough to store huge volumes of customer information. Companies started choosing online techniques, such as database marketing, rather than limited list broker.[9] This kind of databases allowed companies to track customers' information more effectively, thus transforming the relationship between buyer and seller. However, the manual process was not so efficient.
Baseline ranking assessment. You need to understand where you are now in order to accurately assess your future rankings. Keep a simple Excel sheet to start the process. Check weekly to begin. As you get more comfortable, check every 30 to 45 days. You should see improvements in website traffic, a key indicator of progress for your keywords. Some optimizers will say that rankings are dead. Yes, traffic and conversions are more important, but we use rankings as an indicator.
There is no secret that getting hiqh-quality backlinks is your website's way to better ranking in Google. But how to differ good link from the bad one? Carefully choosing backlinks is a very tremulous and important task for everyone who wants to optimize their sites. There are a lot of different tools which can help you to check whether your backlinks are trustful and can bring your website value.

Many people with businesses that they run out of their homes wonder how to find clients. Having a solid client base for any business is a surefire way of earning a good profit and ensuring that you'll have business security throughout the months and years that you operate your company. Customers who experience a quality business interaction are more likely to come back as repeat customers and can even tell their friends about the company as well.

1. Set Your Company Apart
Before you even begin to find clients for your at home yoga business, it's crucial that you make sure your company stands out from others around it. Research other business models and home yoga studios, and make sure that yours offers something that the others don't and which may help to draw in clients. This can be a more affordable yoga session package, a unique setting, or any variety of other options. This will be an important hook that you can use to help draw in interest to your business.
2. Take Out Local Advertisements
Once your company is ready to go and your yoga studio is prepared, you should work to spread the word about your company. A good way to do that is to take out advertisements in your local media. Depending upon your budget, there are a number of different things that you can do. Newspaper advertisements are a great option, for one. You can also take out ads in local special interest magazines, if there are any in your community. If your budget is somewhat larger, a television or radio ad can get your message and your company name to a much wider potential audience as well.
3. Take Advantage of Free Advertising Opportunities
Familiarize yourself with the different yoga communities in your area. If there's a local newsletter, inquire as to whether you can contribute a piece in order to help highlight your practice. You can also post messages on local bulletin boards and even write notes in online message communities for your area as well.
4. Offer a Discount
One of the best ways to get people interested in your yoga business from the beginning is to offer a special introductory package. Give a discounted rate for yoga sessions or provide special training of some kind. You can even consider offering a free piece of merchandise, like a company water bottle or a yoga mat. This is a great incentive to get people interested in joining your yoga studio.
5. Spread the Word
Word of mouth is a final step to getting clients. Tell all of your friends and encourage them to tell all of their friends as well. This will generate a buzz that can mean many more clients for your yoga business.

Hello there!
Im looking into converting some old projects (read: completly remaking them ) in UE5 and i am planning to use world partition.
I have a 40x40km landscape that used to be tiled up in world composition before and each landscape tile has its own unique mask for the material to use. (and its own material instance).
Is there any smart way of doing this in world partition? i dont know if i am blind, but i cant find a separate material slot for each grid or am i constrained to use a extreme resolution texture for the entire world partition as a single mask.
also a suggestion: can we PLEASE keep the filenames of the original tile data somewhere as reference ex: XXXXMAP_X0_Y0.r16 i would love to keep some reference of the X and Y number of the tile if possible.

Don't call. Please.
Thank goodness for Google. I was scrolling through endless news snippets of little importance, when I my eyes jittered to a halt.
The information I read finally gave a name to a disease I've been struggling with nearly all my life.
I have TELEPHOBIA.
More:Better politics, smarter government; return congressional town halls
My condition started a long time ago; from the first time I stuttered self-consciously into a handset that connected me to another human.
All it took was a "hello" on the other end. I was immediately stricken with an inability to form coherent sentences. The words I had planned to use jumbled into Jabberwocky gibberish.
More:Robyn Garrison Leach: That first kiss
Boyfriends mumbled declarations of "like" and my brain suddenly froze. Of course, I had many clever responses ready — ones I'd rehearsed a million times, just in case I needed them.
I had planned to chuckle throatily and lower my voice to a whisper. I wouldn't act excited or surprised. He liked me, and I had to convey my teasing amusement.
"OHhhhh. GOOood." I squealed like a cat whose tail had been rocked over.
More:Local poet releases collection of truths and memories
Now, I can converse just fine if I see eyes. If a person is in front of me. Animals are easy to talk to. Even objects, if they make me mad.
The tin can phones we made as kids didn't bother me, because I could still see my brother down at the end of the string.
But put me behind a remote device and ask me to respond to a disembodied voice?
I'm an idiot with bad grammar and halting words that give the impression of an impending stroke.
As you can imagine, this has caused years of embarrassment and an extreme avoidance for phone calls.
When my phone rings, I panic. Who? What? Why is someone calling me? Who's forcing me to TALK to them about something?
More:It depends what you're looking for
I tried to make the sound of the ring more calming by changing the trill to a sweet little tune. But when it plays, I always assume it's an emergency. I scramble toward the phone as if dismantling a smoke alarm.
Whether it's an unknown caller, a friend, or a relative. Doesn't matter. I am traumatized by the prospect of interacting remotely.
As you can imagine, Telephobia makes it uncomfortable to pitch my column to newspapers. And even though I write a mean email, complete with samples, I pray they won't call me on the phone.
I imagine the newspaper editors who do sometimes call are sitting behind mahogany desks, dressed in formal wear, and filing their fingernails as they wait for me to answer.
"How can she write coherently," they must think. 'Her words are tumbling out like mixed-up Scrabble tiles."
More:A call for elected officials to help restore civility to Congress
I think receptionists must be exhausted from calling customers and relaying information all day. It's important that I make their days better by giving them succinct answers and have any account numbers, birthdates or blood types memorized and ready to pronounce.
Why is my brother calling? Did somebody die? We just texted last night. And he must KNOW I'd rather communicate that way. WHAT DOES HE WANT?
I usually answer with "What's wrong?" instead of "Hello." My racing heart prepares for trauma—either from bad news or just from having to talk on the phone.
There is evidently no cure for Telephobia. I will be afflicted as long as I have a voice. But knowing it has a name? Somehow, that makes it easier to endure.
Maybe my cellphone is ping-ponging radiation all around my brain. Maybe it's slowly learning my shopping habits, gaining clues to my Social Security number and trying to track my oft-forgotten passwords.
But I don't care. It's scary enough just to answer it.

Legendary Singer and Songwriter RL Has Upcoming Music Projects In The Works
Legendary Singer and Songwriter RL remains a prominent and vital talent to the music industry in which he has made his mark. Whether it's songs that he has written for himself or for others, the profound power behind his writing and vocals are still loved, admired, and needed to this day. RL has written for powerhouse music icons such as Luther Vandross, Jamie Foxx, Ginuwine, Keith Sweat, and many more. RL remains a humble, and multitalented sought-out creator.
Hustle and Soul Magazine got an exclusive interview with RL. We take a dive into his epic career, his take on the state of music today, what he has in the works, and more as we give flowers to the Minneapolis native who has touched our hearts for decades with his creativity.
Tammy: RL, you have such a successful career as a singer and songwriter. When you first got into the entertainment music industry what impact did you intend to make?
RL: To be honest, I just wanted to make an honest living doing what I always dreamed to do. I wanted to continue the legacy of my city's heritage. My mother grew up with Prince and Philip Bailey from Earth, Wind, and Fire so I really wanted to just represent.
I didn't want to go to college though I had a scholarship offer. Back then it wasn't as attainable to become an artist and there weren't the resources that we have now. I graduated high school early which gave me a little bit of time to pursue my dreams and it worked out.
Tammy: It definitely worked out for sure. When you're in the studio, cooking up your masterpieces what are some items you must have to get in your zone?
RL: When I was younger, and manish I don't know why, but I would have adult films playing on the TV. Now, I just need peace and no stress. I just need to be in a mind frame where I can just really think back to things absorbed from others.
I have my man cave where I can go work. My daughter will come down there sometimes as soon as she gets out of school. She'll run down the stairs to come to give me a hug and a kiss or sit on my lap for a minute. Then she'll be like, "Alright, I'm out" because she knows that her Daddy has to work. I just need to be in a space where I can have the freedom to not have to worry about anything but the task at hand.
Tammy: It's mental health awareness month. What are some self-care practices that you use to balance being a dad, being in the industry, and having your own self-care time?
RL: I've dealt with mental health and low self-esteem issues since I was a young kid, I tried to commit suicide in my senior year in high school. What I realized is you have to have the right people around you that will uplift you, and pour into you. It's funny because I used to hate being alone then I realized this was because I hated who I was alone with. Once I started to truly love myself, I became a hermit. I rarely go anywhere.
I do think it's about your circle. Even if it's one person that you surround yourself with and your faith. I'm a Christian. I was raised Baptist. Whether you're Hindu, whether you're Muslim or whatever it is just believe in a higher power that things will get better as long as you continue to push forward.
Tammy: You've written for so many people including Usher, Luther Vandross, Jamie Foxx, Keith Sweat, and many more. Is the process easier when you write for yourself or for other people?
RL: I just like creating. There used to be a time when I would create records and be like this is mine, this is my baby. That ended really fast because "Just in Case" and "Anything" I wrote those records for me.
Jaheim was family, KayGee from Naughty By Nature discovered us and we were all a crew. We all slept on the floor in KayGee's back house on air mattresses together. So when he hit me and requested to have those two records, it was a no-brainer because we're family.
Early on in my career, I realized that if you create a great record and you're a great creator, you can create another one. I have faith in myself and how hard I work, and the gifts that I've been blessed with to feel like I could do it all over again, or I could do it better next time. So I don't mind giving records away.
Once you give something to somebody, it's theirs. It's not about how you did it or would do it. I've been in the studio with writers that wanted me to sing the record the way that they sang it. I would be thinking to myself if they wanted the record the way that you did it, you'd be the one with the record deal.
I'm saying nothing against writers but there used to be a time when want to be artists or cats that hadn't made it yet as artists would try to make you do the record as they do it. I've learned to take the ego out of it once I give you the record.
Lil Duval and Ty Dolla Sign "Pull Up" record we wrote and produced that, but we're different types of vocalists. So you find a way to bring the best out of somebody so that the song becomes theirs.
Tammy: Your pen game and your vocal game are serious! Speaking of the best, let's talk about the iconic song "The Best Man I Can Be" from "The Best Man" soundtrack which includes you, Tyrese, Case, and Ginuwine. What was it like being a part of the song and making the video?
RL: That was pretty much my first taste of being solo outside of the group. There were so many other moving parts and layers to that because that was done by Jimmy and Terry, who were my idols. Let me tell you something funny, they had an opportunity to sign us. We used to go to Flyte Time to sing for them. They decided not to sign us, they signed a group called Solo instead. It hurt us so badly and I always had a chip on my shoulder and I felt like they didn't think I was good enough.
So when I had the opportunity to go to the studio with the guys I was nervous because I'm with these three powerhouse solo artists and I'm the guy from the group. I'd just gotten off tour with the guys and I had to literally land to go straight to the studio because I lived there, they all flew in.
At the beginning of what we recorded, I was talking and doing all these adlibs because I was making that stuff up trying to impress Jimmy and Terry. Now fast forward to 20 something years later, I jumped in on an interview that big bro Jimmy Jam was having. He took like five minutes to talk about me.
All these years I had a chip on my shoulder for no reason. He said that we did those guys a favor. The interviewer was like, what do you mean? Jimmy said that they were in a crazy situation with the label and that they really wanted to sign us but they knew we were too talented and they didn't want to mess our careers up with the messed up label situation at that time. They knew we'd get a better situation.
Then he went on to talk about how I coached these powerhouse artists for The Best Man record. Jimmy said that I was the glue and I was the guy that really was like Okay, do this, or try it like this. I didn't even know that he noticed.
When I got in there with the guys I had so much respect and love for them that it wasn't about me trying to show them up or show them that I belong. It was more about me just wanting to fit in and say you know what, you should sing this part or do it like this.
I really didn't know Jimmy noticed it but he said I helped orchestrate the record and he gave me all these props. I literally was in tears. I had to sit down because all these years I've had this animosity and this chip on my shoulder because I felt like my idols didn't believe in me but the truth is them not signing us was a labor of love.
Being able to do the video with these guys I've cultivated relationships. Tyrese, he's a movie star now, Case, we just saw each other in Chicago last weekend. I've written like six records for Ginuwine on another project. He's always looked out, hit me up, and check on me. When I talk to Ginuwine he's always like, "I love you, man". They're some of the best men that I know in the industry.
Tammy: What are some other memorable moments in your career for you that you're so proud of?
RL: My best memories aren't the awards and all the accolades, because I've always been the type of guy that when all of the congratulations is going on, I'm in the studio trying to do some more work. I just work, I can't help it. I just want to continue to work. That's the joy for me. Some of my best memories are doing for others.
I've been able to surprise my sister and mom with a brand new car. I remember when my brother and I lived in the Bay Area when we were younger, and the curves were super high. So we're riding our bikes and he flipped and his face on the concrete. His teeth were messed up all through high school, and they started to rotten. I was able to drop like 20 and get his mouth fixed.
The accolades and all that's cool, and awards can sit on a shelf or on the wall somewhere, but seeing my brother's smiling, I can take pride in that more than anything.
Tammy: Giving back to others, especially through your songwriting, and giving it back to your family who supported you from day one is so beautiful.
What is your take on R&B today, what's missing?
RL: I can't say that anything is missing but I wish there were more ways for artists like myself to get heard. People will say just post on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook but my core audience is not going on social media for new music, they're not streaming like that. So we don't have a way to get our new music marketed and promoted to our audience.
There are no record stores anymore, and things like that. There's a lot of new artists and talent, but the differences are that their audience streams. They're on YouTube listening to new music. For artists like myself, it's disheartening to know I can do a sold-out tour, and everybody in the audience is on their feet the whole night but they don't know about any new music I put out.
Executives and different people will come by my house to hear new records and say this is amazing. So I keep plugging away and making music. I'm blessed to have publishing and the discography to where I can continue to make a living. But everybody doesn't have that. With Covid, and not touring, times are hard for everybody. I'm not in nobody's pockets, but I can only imagine for the people that don't necessarily have those ASCAP checks coming every month.
Tammy: What can we be on the lookout for and what are you looking forward to?
RL: KayGee from Naughty By Nature discovered us. Naughty by Nature are our big brothers. I think the final thing you'll hear from Next unless God has other plans will be this Next By Nature project that we're putting together. It's a labor of love for me. Honestly, if KayGee hadn't reached out to me, I wouldn't have done it but Kay is one of those people that is the reason I'm able to feed my family. So there's nothing I wouldn't do if he called me.
Besides that, me and a few friends of mine started messing around with some records like seven years ago, and it happened to be on Instagram live. Some label heads came in the room and heard us playing these records. They reached out and put the batteries back in our back.
We're working on an EP right now it's called Give It Up For Love. The group is WQRL which is Wingo of Jagged Edge, Q Parker from 112, and myself. We're readying the EP right now and we're excited about it. We're mixing everything and putting on the final touches, but the records are done.
We'll continue to record because we realized that it's a great touring mechanism. Not only do we feel like we have great new music, but you basically get three groups for the price of one, and you get the hits. It's a good business decision as well. We're all friends, we know each other's families. I'm so proud of Wingo especially because people don't realize how talented he is. The twins are super dope so they're going to overshadow pretty much anybody. But for him to get the opportunity to let the world know how talented he is, I think is the most exciting aspect of WQRL. I'm like a proud brother to watch him. It's going to be really amazing. I really love it!
Tammy: During these unprecedented times that we're in, though things are starting to get back on the right track there are people who aspire to be a singer or a songwriter, and get their name out there. They may not have the resources or the connections or may feel discouraged. What words of encouragement would you have for them?
RL: Well, let me say this, I am 24 years in the game and I get discouraged. With the climate of how music is and where we are right now, I honestly feel like it's easier for new artists to be heard than seasoned veterans sometimes. So my words are to use that discouragement as fuel. That's what I do.
Don't doubt yourself! You can become discouraged but that other "D", you don't need that. Don't doubt your gift because that discouragement is something that can prove other people wrong. Sometimes you have to prove yourself wrong.
There's always somebody, somewhere that sees you. I don't care where you are, it can happen. It's not just the tour bus or sneaking backstage, you could be anywhere. It could be karaoke night, you just never know.
Also, remember to treat people right. It's not what people say when you're in the room. It's what they say about you when you're not in the room. So if you treat people right, and people know you're dope you will be good.
