Weird Questions People Ask Google Assistant

Image
  Where Am I? What time is it? Where am I? How are you? These are just a few examples of questions people ask Google. We often do a quick search to double-check something we are unsure of and in the meantime, Google is busy collecting all that information. Questions about Today Worldwide searches on Google often feature questions about today, such as: What day is today? Is today a holiday? What is the weather like today? While it’s quite intuitive to know why people want to know what kind of weather to expect during the day, it’s interesting to see how easy it can be to lose track of time and having to check what day of the week it is or if a holiday we had forgotten about is magically happening today and we don’t have to go to work. Questions about Social Media The most commonly asked questions about social media are not about how to use them but how to delete profiles: How to delete an Instagram account How to delete Snapchat account How to delete a Facebook account How to deactivate

BEST SEO TOOLS FOR WEB DESIGNERS

There’s a lot of overlap between SEO tools, which is why it can be so difficult to figure out which is the best to use. To simplify things, I’ve selected the 4 SEO tools that will seamlessly integrate with your design workflow and won’t break your budget. You already have a ton of tools in your web design toolbox which is why I’m reluctant to write this post the way I would for copywriters and SEO pros. Why? Well, because there are literally dozens of SEO tools you could add to your workflow. Unless you’re promising clients that their websites will go to #1 in search results for every keyword they want to win, there’s no reason to add that kind of complexity to your life. That said, you can’t completely ignore SEO. No one is going to shell out money for a web hosting plan, domain name, and professional web design services and not expect results in return. But before your client’s website can start capturing leads and sales, it needs organic search traffic — which is why you’ll need som

6 WAYS TO HARNESS SOCIAL MEDIA FOR YOUR BRAND

Image
Social media has become a constant in modern daily life. By now it’s not uncommon for grandparents to have their own profiles on Facebook. This means that marketing on social media is beginning to have fewer limits on possible target demographics, and increasingly greater reach as the number of users on major social media sites rises. That said, the social media marketing realm is as dependent on the constant change as the social media landscape itself. Designing a successful online brand depends not only on compelling ideas but equally on adaptability. Without a dynamic brand, users of new and up-and-coming, or even outdated social networks will be outside the reach of your brand.

3 SUCCESSFUL WAYS TO GET PAID BY A CLIENT WHO HAS “NO MONEY”

Image
Every freelancer has heard the pitch from clients about “no money now, but there will be later”, “help start my business and you’ll be my ‘go-to’ person in the future”, or “when things get going, you can charge more and make up your lost fees”. These promises are of course lies! Every business has money. The trick is, getting them to part with it. Here are some handy ways of creative billing and other methods for turning a cheapskate into a great client… who pays your invoice! A new client or another douche? The great thing about businesses that demand free work is that they usually don’t realize, in the end, that they have no rights to the copyrighted work you have created. Free work followed by broken promises can be followed by legal suits to pay you for the rights they never legally had. That, of course, is not a good way to do business in the long term, but the idea is on the table if you’ve been screwed in the past and never signed over the copyright for your work. A letter warni

Do you ever get bored with design projects? Feel like you keep designing the same things on repeat? This collection of trends – from fun angles to illustrations where you wouldn’t expect them to cool three-dimensional concepts – is sure to help you think a little more out of the box. It might be just the right inspiration to cure some of that design boredom. Here’s what’s trending in design this month.  1. Angles for Attention Working with angles is a fun technique because you can essentially point website visitors to what you want them to see on the screen.

This trend can look a lot of different ways, making it a versatile option for designers. Each of the three examples here takes a different approach to angles. Bake Inc  uses various angles with imagery and whitespace to draw the eye past the visual elements to the brand name at the bottom of the screen. If you
