Tips & Tricks To Resurrect Your Youtube Channel And Get Massive Traffic - Real Fast Results, #47

by Daniel Hall

0,99€ + 10% CARD

 Today we’re going to talk about how to take that "thing" that you’ve had forever and actually create an asset without doing a whole lot of extra stuff. We’re talking about that YouTube channel that’s been sitting on the back burner, that’s kind of collecting dust, and right now, it could be collecting more leads and more sales.For me, personally, I use YouTube to drive sales, to build a list, and to really get great results. This is something that I’ve been doing since 2007, and I’ve been doing it just kind of matter-of-factly. I’ve seen these results. I’ve seen traffic to my website. I’ve seen sales, and I thought, "How can we improve upon that?" Really, what I have studied in the past 8 months is really all around that. The promise is:How to take your YouTube channel, drive more traffic to it and convert the traffic into leads/sales. And ultimately create an asset that is valuable and important to your business. One of the great things about YouTube videos is that you can put them up and people can access them, so you have this ability to cast a wider net. You can reach out and connect with people who have never otherwise heard of you.Not only can people access the information, not only can you provide a huge, valuable resource for other people, but other people that don’t have any idea who you are can find those videos. Right now, if you were to search for "Apple Branding," my video ranks #1, and then, all of the other videos on Page 1, the first 10, they’re two years old, they’re three years old, and I think, like, the sixth video is 10 years old.Imagine really having the foresight to build a channel out. Not just to think, "Hey, YouTube is where I stick my videos. That’s my video hosting," but to build a channel, and to be able to drive views that can bring people on your list, or to sell products, or to really gain that exposure and authority. To me, that was one of the reasons why I wanted to dive in. I couldn’t think of any other platform that would allow me to drive traffic year after year, like YouTube can and does.

New Media And Women Empowerment - A Study On Women Internet Users

by Monica Hepzibah Pushpabai

~~1,31€~~ 1,18€ 10% OFF

 Thesis from the year 2009 in the subject Communications - Multimedia, Internet, New Technologies, , course: Ph.D, language: English, abstract: Imagine a world where digital access unlocks potential, yet deeply entrenched societal norms cast a long shadow - this is the reality for many women in Tamil Nadu, India. This compelling exploration delves into the transformative, yet often paradoxical, role of the internet in shaping women's empowerment within this culturally rich and complex region. Challenging conventional narratives, this study meticulously examines how new media technologies, specifically the internet, intersect with existing gender dynamics, literacy levels, and socio-economic realities to either propel or impede progress towards gender equality. Through insightful analysis and rigorous research, the book uncovers the multifaceted ways in which internet access influences women's access to employment opportunities, political participation, and overall agency in Tamil Nadu. Beyond the local context, the narrative broadens to encompass a global perspective, drawing comparisons with diverse countries - from the United Kingdom and the United States to Ghana, China, Nigeria, Jordan, Latin America, Somalia, Cambodia, and Canada - to illuminate the varied impacts of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) on women's lives worldwide. Readers will gain a nuanced understanding of the challenges and opportunities that digital connectivity presents, including the amplification of marginalized voices, the rise of online activism, and the persistent digital divide that threatens to exclude the most vulnerable. Discover how the internet acts as both a catalyst for change and a mirror reflecting deeply ingrained societal inequalities, offering crucial insights for policymakers, academics, and anyone passionate about fostering true women's empowerment in the digital age. Explore the intricate relationship between internet usage, new media, communication technologies, and the empowerment of women, and understand how these factors contribute to gender equality in the specific context of Tamil Nadu. Uncover the status of women in the region, their literacy rates, and their political representation, and understand the role of the internet in their lives. This book provides a robust analysis of women's empowerment, offering a new perspective on the interplay of technology and social change.

Influence Of Behavioural Change Communication On Vaccine Hesitancy

by Iyanuoluwa Ogunleye

~~1,31€~~ 1,18€ 10% OFF

 Bachelor Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Communications - Multimedia, Internet, New Technologies, grade: B, University of Lagos, course: Mass Communication, language: English, abstract: Health pandemics are a regular occurrence in many nations around the world that often necessitate some form of behaviour change to save the lives of citizens leaving government and health bodies like the National Centre for Disease Control to spend billions to communicate behavioural change messages that can persuade recipients to adopt new healthy behaviours. This study studied the influence of behavioural change communication methods employed by the Federal Government and other bodies during the COVID-19 pandemic on vaccine hesitancy with a focus on undergraduates of the University of Lagos. The study employed questionnaire surveys with questions that sampled the perception of over 400 students of messages intended to persuade them to take the COVID-19 vaccine. The study discovered that respondents who got behavioural change communication messages were persuaded in favour of the vaccine. However, the need to pay attention to the BCC message design process that included choice of medium, the role of the influencing audience as well as relatedness of the message were discovered as inhibiting factors to the effectiveness of BCC messages.

 Bachelor Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Communications - Multimedia, Internet, New Technologies, grade: 1,3, University of applied sciences, Cologne, language: English, abstract: This thesis aims to realize how influencer marketing performs and its impact on the Cx. Therefore, the research addresses the following questions: How powerful are influencers these days? What is different about influencer marketing, and why is it a successful strategy? How do people perceive information shared by influencers, and which factors are decisive for potential customers to purchase products advertised by influencers? What impact does an influencer have on the overall Cx?The internet has been fully integrated into people's daily lives worldwide over the past years. The percentage of the world's population with access to the internet has doubled from 32% in 2011 to 63% in 2021. 90% of people from developed countries access the internet in 2021. At the same time, the number of social network users is increasing. These networks have the purpose of connecting with friends. In 2022, 5 billion people have access to the internet worldwide, and 4.7 billion people use social media (SM). Ultimately, 93% of those with internet access own at least one SM account, that is more than half the population worldwide. Through time, companies found new marketing strategies which reached active people on SM. These platforms are necessary to reach Generation Z, people born in the late 1990s. They are different and cannot be reached in the same way as they watch Netflix instead of TV or listen to Spotify instead of the radio, for example. Influencer marketing became a $10 billion industry in 2020. Influencers share their lives on SM networks. Due to their high reach, they receive offers from companies for cooperation. Influencers' followers admire and trust their recommendations due to their personal and authentic representation. While advertising products, influencers show how to use them, where to buy them, and give their opinion. For higher sales, influencers often receive promo codes for a discount or free products for each order.

Peer-To-Peer File Sharing. Music And Copyright In The Internet Age

by Sebastian Just

17,95€ + 10% CARD

 Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Communications - Multimedia, Internet, New Technologies, grade: 2,3, Humboldt-University of Berlin (Institut fur Musikwissenschaft und Medienwissenschaft), language: English, abstract: The objective of this paper is to take a closer look at the development and behavior of Peer-to-Peer based file sharing networks while especially considering intellectual property law to assess the impact this disruptive technology had on the music industry. To do that this paper will first look at the shift from analogue to digital audio, which entailed significant changes for both the music industry and the consumer. Then it will focus on the first real Peer-to-Peer file sharing network "Napster", especially on why it came into being, how it worked and to what extend it interfered with copyright law. Afterwards it takes the period after "Napster's" shutdown in 2001 in consideration, in which various new Peer-to-Peer networks even more copyright-resistant emerged. It will be examined how these networks functioned compared to their predecessor, how the music industry and the state tried to take on these "digital enemies" and how Peer-to-Peer affected the music business. Eventually we will take a look at how the industry managed to adapt to the internet, treating it as a profitable platform rather than a dystopian technology. On the 3rd of April 1993, the World Wide Web was made available to the public. By connecting people all over the world, this technological milestone initiated drastic changes to how we are able to consume visual and acoustical entertainment. In 1999, the first ever file sharing network called "Napster" launched and illicitly enabled users to exchange copyrighted music for free. This was accomplished by using a peer-to-peer system, which takes advantage of the vast availability of the internet and the resultant high number of peers . Users register to the network and declare which files from their computer they are willing to share, enabling others to download the files directly from them rather than through a central sever. This sort of file transfer posed a challenge for the music industry, as their music was made publicly available with no one paying for it. In addition, Peer-to-Peer systems conflicted with the idea of intellectual property, which grants an author certain rights over his or her work in form of a copyright.

Linguistic Analysis Of The Usage Of Emotes In Twitch Chat

by Janne Siebertz

18,02€ + 10% CARD

 Seminar paper from the year 2022 in the subject Communications - Multimedia, Internet, New Technologies, grade: 1.7, University of Bonn (IAAK), language: English, abstract: This paper aims to provide clarity and a sense of understanding of the usage of emotes in chats on the platform Twitch.tv. It can be assumed that emotes are used to either build on the meaning of the message, in terms of providing what facial expressions provide in face-to-face conversations, to indicate irony or in other ways to add meaning to the message, or as a mitigating function as illocutionary force indicators. The paper will accomplish this by first giving an oversight of previously done research related to the topic. Then it will explain how the data was collected and how it is going to be used for this paper. A summary of the results gained from processing the data will be presented before those results will be discussed. Lastly, the paper will conclude with an evaluation of the accuracy of the hypothesis. During the pandemic, the need for entertainment that was easy to come by and accessible from home was at an all-time high. Many platforms offering video on demand (VOD) services profited greatly from this newfound demand. But not only did the demand for platforms offering VOD services grow, but also the need for live entertainment. For many, the solution was the live streaming platform Twitch.

New Media And Cultural Hybridisation. A Study On The Influence Of New Media Technologies On The Youth Of Silchar, India

by Sayan Dey

45,02€ + 10% CARD

 Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2019 in the subject Communications - Multimedia, Internet, New Technologies, Assam University, language: English, abstract: The topic of this research work propose to understand the impact of New Media Technologies on the undergraduate students of an urban area of North East India, to test if these technologies are having any cultural implications in terms of juxtaposition of multiple cultures. The thesis argues that New Media Applications have brought in a sense of hybrid culture among the youth by affecting the perception and consumption of cultural indicators among college goers. In this age of New Media, it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish between virtual and real these days. With the burgeoning of technology enabled communication, interactional transactions have become heavily dependent and concentric upon webbed web. Be it social, political or cultural - every aspect of contemporary human sustenance has gone for a toss and a state of interweavements has been attained. In the present day a gamut of digital communication, online tools, applications and technologies have become part and parcel of everyday affairs and even more so in the realms of communication. It is quite obvious that new communication networks empowered with digital technologies and internet are foremost tools which have enabled the enterprise of completely new representation of information production and dissemination, cultural production, management and control.

Law And Ethics For Web Designers. The Legal And Ethical Regulation Concerning Web Accessibility

by Nerea Eschle

15,77€ + 10% CARD

 Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Communications - Multimedia, Internet, New Technologies, grade: 1,0, , course: Media, Professions and Society, language: English, abstract: This thesis is dedicated to accessibility laws, voluntary guidelines, and professional regulations and how they interact with web designers. So the research question asks: How do web accessibility laws and professional codes of ethics affect the web designer's profession and working life? To answer this question, the first part outlines the extent to which web design is a profession and how it has evolved. In the second part, the concept of accessibility, disability, and approaches to accessible design are discussed, then the legal regulations and professional ethics are considered, and finally accessible design in practice. In the end, a conclusion is drawn to summarise the findings and provide an outlook. The World Health Organization estimates that about 6 to 10 out of every 100 people live with a disability. It is estimated that a total of 135 million people in the European Region have a disability. This number could increase in the coming years as the population ages (WHO Regional Office for Europe). All of these people will most likely face significant barriers when it comes to information and communication technologies (ICTs), such as poorly designed websites where graphics cannot be read by screen readers or information that can only be accessed with a mouse instead of also with a keyboard. This is fatal at a time when information and communication technologies are becoming increasingly important in our everyday lives. A so-called "digital divide" between people with access to information and those without, could emerge due to rapid technological progress. This potential development makes accessibility such an important issue so that people with disabilities also have full and equal access to information. Accessibility is not just about information. It's about enabling people with disabilities to live empowered lives and participate in the online environment where engagement and participation in contemporary politics, culture, and media take place. In that regard, a change has been taking place since the last decades, and disability is more and more recognised as an important part of society, of the public and private sphere, and daily life.
