A Challenging Venture: My Way to Japan — 4

All About Japan — 2

Religion

In Japan, Shintoism and Buddhism are embraced by most of the people.

Shinto is polytheistic and revolves around the kami (“gods” or “spirits”), supernatural entities believed to inhabit all things.

Four Affirmations of Shinto

Tradition and the family .

. Love of nature : Holding nature sacred.

: Holding nature sacred. Ritual purity: Ritual bathing to spiritually and physically cleanse yourselves before entering a shrine to worship the kami.

to spiritually and physically cleanse yourselves before entering a shrine to worship the kami. Matsuri: Worshipping and honoring gods and ancestral spirits.

Itsukushima (Miyajima) Shrine is one of the most famous ones. It was founded more than 1400 years ago and was registered as a World Heritage site in 1996.

Tradition & Culture

One of the symbols of Japanese tradition is Geisha:

Geisha, geiko, or geigi are a class of female entertainers from Japan trained in traditional styles of performing art, such as Japanese dance and singing. Their distinct appearance is characterized by long, trailing kimono, traditional hairstyles and the oshiroi make-up. Contrary to popular belief, geisha are not prostitutes.

The only difference between them is where they come from. In Kyoto, these women are called geiko whilst in Tokyo, they are known as geisha. To put it simply, a maiko is an apprentice geiko/geisha.

Kyoto, Gion Geisha District, Kyoto:

I short, what a Geisha does is: They are professional entertainers who attend guests during meals, banquets and other occasions. They are trained in various traditional Japanese arts, such as dance and music, as well as in the art of communication.

Tea Ceremonies are another symbolic tradition. It is really taken seriously. There are ways and rules to follow.

Gardening

Japanese trees are very famous. They are commonly good gardeners.

Ginkgo: This one with bright yellow leaves can live up to 2500 years. Name is originated from Chinese “silver” and “apricot” words. This totally unique species is used to cure Alzheimer disease and symbolizes infinity and holiness.

The one with spectacular red leaves: Acer japonica (Japanese Maple): Used for producing syrup. Also very common in the US and Canada. (can be seen in the flag of Canada)

Bonsai: Tray planting is a Japanese art: Bonsai tree grown in pot, can live up to 150 years if taken good care. Very old style of art which can be seen in ancient paintings in the museums.

Fashion

I should not skip how Japanese style is impressive. We shouldn’t be surprised “Kenzo Takada” is from Japan.

Of course, what we immediately recall is:

Kimono.

The rest of the series will come soon..

Stay tuned, stay safe.
Distracted by trends | Juwon Ogungbe

Fads and trends come and go, surfacing, going under and then resurfacing as time passes. It is tempting to get distracted by the bobbing and weaving. Remaining tuned in to what’s going on is necessary for many folks.

Reading the memoirs of a wordsmith of my parents’ generation, I was struck by some cultural attitudes and practices that have prevailed through the ages.

Upholding timeless values is easier for some people to focus on than it is for others. Those who have the talent for bending to suit the whims and caprices of fashion should make the most of their attributes.

Dedicated individuals often reap dividends further down the line.

Dk is the next biggest rapper from NC
Tags: Trends, Nc, Rap

Everyone needs to watch out for Dk! The 17-year-old, North Carolina Bred rapper, that’s creating a serious buzz for himself during the last quarter of 2020. After deleting all his previous songs in September and deciding to go 100% in with rapping, he has not let his foot off the gas. Accumulating almost 300,000 streams in four months with cosigns from Promoting Sounds, Sauce Only, and Patrick cc, Dk is proving why he could be the next big thing out of North Carolina.

Every song he comes out with is better and the fans have seen his progression. Whether it’s his catchy flows, versatile melodies, or addictive lyricism, he pulls the listener in more each song! There’s been a trend of people comparing Dk to Polo g but we feel like he has a unique style. According to him “It’s a blessing for my name to even be brought up in conversation relating to one of the goats in the rap industry right now so the comparisons don’t bother me at all.” With Dk’s consistent hits we feel like he will be mainstream in only a matter of time.

His latest song “Life Isn’t Fair” is doing amazing. Being aired on the local radio station (K97.5) on the “drive at 5 Dj mix” people are starting to hear his name in the communities around him. With Promoting Sounds & Sauce only posting the song on their Youtube channels, the song already has over 70,000 views. “Life Isn’t Fair” really shows the fans how skilled Dk is and how advanced his flow is from his peers.

I suggest all of you go check out Dk’s music and follow him on Instagram (@officialdariusking) to see the talent the kid has before he goes mainstream. He is going to be a force to be reckoned with and it’s only a matter of time till people know his name.

Email marketing trends 2021
By: Mykhailo Glodian
Tags: Trends, 2021 Trends, Email Marketing, Email Marketing Tips, Email

Email marketing remains the attractive lead generation source, as it gives subscribers a choice to read or not to read the emails, or read them later.

In the world where messages ‘burn up’ immediately — ad banners or ads in messengers lost instantly — the email will remain an outpost, you can always read in peace when it’s most comfortable for you.

Emails remind me of real letters, it feels nice to open them, and most importantly they are unintrusive, no one forces you to read them up right away. I believe the emails will follow the path of generating maximum relevant content automatically.

As for trends for 2021 and the next decade, I think, there will be 3 major directions:

1.Personalization

This means not only using the subscriber’s name and birth date but rather aligning the content that users get with their preferences: what the particular person is interested in, when he or she reads emails, and so on (this is where AI should step in).

2.Automation

This is another point where AI will play a major role, as it’s AI that can modify email content depending on the subscriber’s reaction to the first message.

Do long and detailed emails work best for a particular subscriber or they prefer a visual format?

An email chain will be unique for every person. AI will be enriched with data about the user from other sources to ensure maximum content personalization and automation.

3. Precise segmentation

This is a logical continuation of 2 previous thoughts. Segmenting the audience into men and women doesn’t work anymore. The deeper segmentation we do — the shorter email lists we get.

An email marketer should not experience “claustrophobia” — being afraid of shortlists. It’s way better to send 100 greatly targeted emails than 10 000 of too general “mass destruction bombs.”

I believe, providing content with maximum relevance will go almost without any handiwork. Every subscriber will get the emails with individually picked content — and at the moment when it’s most convenient to get and read it.
1 Month with silicon M1 macbook pro
By: Lakshan Bandara
Tags: Trends, Review, Apple, Experience, Mac

My experience with apple silicon m1 macbook pro .

m1 macbook

I bought a macbook pro 512GB with apple silicon m1 chip on November 2020. The reason I wanted to share my personal opinion is the different stories and warning I got from people before buying it.

I am javascript developer and a college undergraduate who is reading for IT degree. I use my macbook for both my studies and work. And also love to play computer games in free time. So I will break my experience in to 3 parts.

Software Development

I mainly use Visual Studio Code as my IDE. There are no big difference while using the IDE. But the possibility of crashing the IDE is higher. (2–3 times crashes for a day). There is a ARM native Visual Studio Code under Microsoft insider program and I tried that as well. But that visual studio code is still a nightmare. It is full of bugs and crashed every 3–5 minutes.

Even though there is nothing wrong with the web applications, there is still huge issue on mobile applications. Still I can’t use my laptop to develop android applications. Every time I get a react-native task I have to pass it to one of my colleges due to this issue.

Gaming

fortnite

When comes to gaming macbooks always sucks at this. To try out the gaming experience I have downloaded Fortnite a couple of days ago. Carefully read this line “ If the game got loaded you can play it without an issue even in high graphic settings”. The reason I asked to read the line carefully, there is no guarantee that the game will load everytime. Even the game got loaded it will crash when you are closing the game.

Hopefully these issues will get fixed in the near future.

College works

When comes to creating documentations and other stuff this is a regular macbook. There is no special ground breaking things.

About the RAM

Most people complain about the 8 GB RAM. I don’t know why. In my experience I never got in to an issue with RAM. I do so much multitasking at my work with this mac and never got in to an insufficient RAM issue.

The 8 GB RAM is more than enough.
GRETTTAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!

TRANSCRIPT

A Chinese instructor was suspended because there’s a word that sounds like a racial slur in Chinese, but it’s a very common word.

“Like in China. The common word is tha tha tha. So in China, it might be nega..nega, nega, nega. So there’s different words that you’ll hear in different countries…”

The students got outraged because he kept saying a word in Chinese that happens to make *them* think of a racial slur. They’re the racists!

That’s the irony of this whole thing. But he gets suspended. And now, all these teachers are scared to death to teach because of these hypersensitive students.

A lot of people thought we’re living in this dystopian, Orwellian state, like 1984, where the government surveils you. Or, Animal Farm with this oppressive Communist-like regime.

But the reality is — we’re living in Lord of the Flies, where the children are in charge.

We have rooms of executives, sitting around, pathetically going…

“Oh, man, I wonder what Millennials and Zennials and Zoolials and Boollials…”

You know, whatever made up words that they have.

“What are they gonna buy??” “What are they gonna think of this campaign?”

45 year old dudes looking at TikTok videos.

“Oh, my God, I wonder what these kids will like!?” “Hey, let’s sign this one up as an influencer!”

He’s 12! He’s 12!!

It is so sad that instead of teaching kids, we’re putting them up on a pedestal.

“Greta Thunberg said…”

Who cares what Greta Thunberg says??

I believe in climate science. But if you’re going to hide behind a child, who’s not a scientist, I will laugh at you.

If you are truly on the right side of things, figure out a way to bring people to your side, to make them understand what’s in it for them to do the right thing, to be pro-climate and green solutions and all that.

But hiding behind a child… To exalt them as symbols of purity that we must honor, and God forbid anyone says anything bad.

You’re using them as human shields! Of course, they’re gonna say something bad. Because you’re hiding instead of standing up for what you believe, what scientists believe.

Where are the scientists??

We have crafted an insane society.

They say I can’t but I want to
Tags: Trends, Life, Love, Love Letters, Sister

They say I can't love

Anyone other than myself

They say nothing last

Forever

They say nothing is ever

Perfect

They say everything dies

At last

They say nothing stays

Forever

They say learn to adapt

They say learn to live

They say learn to love yourself

Love yourself first

Never let them break you

Never let them break you it into pieces

That you can't find yourself in it

That you can't even collect them all

But even I know what they say is correct

I know they are not wrong

I know I can't love others than myself

I know nothing stays forever

I know nothing is permanent

I know nothing is perfect

I know everything dies

I know everything has to die

But it doesn't Mean you can't do it

That doesn't mean you have to do everything

They say

That doesn't mean you have to do everything

That meant to do

Cause

Life is unpredictable

And we humans don't do everything

That meant to happen

That what we have to do

And we don't listen anyone

I know it hurts

And what they say is correct

But

The one thing I craved for my whole life

The one thing I wanted most in life

The one thing I thought I am not gonna have

The one thing I keep asking my mom

Even when they provided everything

With what they have

And I met you suddenly and I had it

I have you in my life now

And I love you more than myself

I love you most of everything

Even if it hurts

Even if it consumes me

Even if it's gonna break me

Even if it's gonna kill me

Because you are not just my love

You are my life

I am not gonna stop it just because

You don't like me the same

I am not gonna stop it just because

You don't love me the same

I am not gonna stop it just because

I am jealous 😜

And i don't need any reasons

To love you

because I love you

And that reason is enough

Fashion Trends on the Rise
Tags: Trends, Style Guides, Fashion Trends, Fashion, Style

Most fashion trends are a recurrence.. I mean its not like today's society is birthing new ideas LOL. With this noted, its not a surprise that turtlenecks are slowly weaving its way into modern fashion. Turtlenecks made their grand appearance in the early-mid 1900’s and after fading away, are slowly rising to the surface. Only now, do I think people are truly recognizing the beauty in layering- that is, layering with turtle necks. Turtle necks are hot paired with a band tee, and are awfully cute layered with a denim jacket, over sized flannel, or winter coat.. Perhaps the mere potential of the turtleneck is what makes it so.. appetizing.

Another fashion trend, surfacing today after its showcase in the 90’s are the skater pants. Yes, that’s right. I believe the modern version of these 90’s skater pants stemmed from mom jeans, a recent and huge trend. I mean come on, people love mom jeans, and the skater style is also loved by many. So, now we have the baby of the two trends… skater pants. These pants are baggy and loose and look like cargo pants five sizes too big… hey, we were all thinking it. Although they may appear ugly on the shelf, people pull them off surprisingly well. These pants are often paired cropped tops, baggy t-shirts, skin tight body suits, sports bras, Nike sneakers, turtlenecks… ya know, the works. Like turtlenecks, these pants are paired with anything and everything, and look bomb while doing so.

I would say that baggy t-shirts are starting to surface, but they already are trendy! However, I can say that I believe people are starting to realize the beauty in an old, vintage baggy t-shirt. Although they may be popular they seemed to “fly under the radar” for a while, and are now getting the recognition they deserve. These t-shirts are comfy but stylish. They allow you to show uumph while tucked away in the comfort of soft fabric. Maybe the sense of comfort and stylishness is why baggy t-shirts are loved by many.

These three pieces I believe are on the rise today, but who knows where society will choose to go within the fashion world. Hopefully to Urban outfitters, to buy a new turtle neck, t-shirt, and a pair of skater pants..

The Pulse by EllisX: Tech & Business Trends Worth Writing About — Dec 21
By: Leia Ruseva
Tags: Trends, Creators, Business, Cryptocurrency, Technology

Here we are in the final days of December. In what is typically a slow month, we’ve seen a whirlwind of activity this year, with exciting new trends catching our eye week after week. We don’t know if this will hold throughout Christmas and the New Year (who’s ready for 2021?), but continue monitoring the tech and business landscape for anything interesting. If we don’t spot anything interesting, this will be our last Pulse for 2020, and we want to take a moment to wish you a happy and healthy holiday season.

And without further ado, here are the trends that caught our attention during the past week:

Cryptocurrency may be moving into the mainstream

On December 16 Bitcoin’s price rose to more than $20,000 for the first time and is now on its way to $23,000. The cryptocurrency had been deemed worthless multiple times in the past and its price has been very volatile over the last couple of years. In addition, crypto exchange Coinbase filed to go public next year and is expected to be among the first IPOs of 2021. Coinbase was most recently valued at $8 billion and its IPO, together with Bitcoin’s doubling in price this year, signal that investors may finally be ready to embrace crypto, elevating its status as an investment opportunity.

Can the Passion Economy help creators earn sustainable income?

The Creator Economy has been credited as a way to uplift people and offer a path into the middle class for those who aspire to create and cater to specific audiences. We’ve seen many prominent journalists leave established publications to launch their own Substacks, but as Josh Sternberg of The Media Nut wrote a few month ago, the reality is that the majority of them are not able to make a living out of their writing. While this year has seen an uptick in creator tools, the majority of creators still struggle to generate sustainable income. However, according to Li Jin, we’re just scratching the surface of the Passion Economy’s potential, and if we put the right support systems in place, it provides a solid pathway to a primary or secondary income stream that would uplift and empower the majority of creators.

Is Big Tech under a threat?

The idea of breaking up Big Tech has become quite popular with regulators in the last couple of years. This year alone the CEOs of Twitter, Facebook and Google were called to testify in front of Congress. And the EU has been leading its own fight against Big Tech. This trend is set to continue into 2021. Last week, Texas filed a lawsuit against Google, accusing the behemoth of anticompetitive behavior. Google is also under a lawsuit from the DOJ for the same reason. In the meantime, Massachusetts filed a complaint against trading platform Robinhood. While Robinhood is not quite a Big Tech company, this goes to show that large unicorns are not immune to regulators’ scrutiny — something that might become more common next year.

And if you’re writing a story about any of these trends, you can always find qualified experts available to comment on them here.
What’s your personality like based on your birthday

What’s your personality like based on your birthday

Many believe that your birth date could determine whether you have certain facial features or personality traits. Unconvinced yet..?

Zodiac signs and astrology have been used by many cultures for centuries and recently have seemingly become more popular. I guess it has its similarities to fate but do you believe that the stars can determine these things?

My earliest memories of being introduced to astrology was from a hair dresser we used once- the once is a necessary detail due to her cutting my hair so awfully we had to go to another- and I have to admit her hair dressing skills matched her advice on astrology and side job of tarot card reading. This, rightfully so, lead to me to believe astrology was a massive scam from the beginning but I always kept a sneaky interest, although I would never admit to it for feeling it a bit of an embarrassing belief, but I now think that even if it is false or a bit ‘silly’ it is quite a fun pass time to learn more about.

So, the basics: The signs are ordered into 4 different elements… Fire signs: Aries (Mar 21-Apr 19), Leo (July 23-Aug 22), Sagittarius (Nov 22-Dec 21) Air signs: Gemini (May 21-Jun 20), Libra (Sept 23-Oct 22), Aquarius (Jan 20-Feb 18) Earth signs; Taurus (Apr 20-May 20), Virgo (Aug 23- Sept 22), Capricorn (Dec 22-Jan 19) Water signs: Cancer (Jun 21-Jul 22), Scorpio (Oct 23-Nov 21), Pisces (Feb 19-Mar 20)

Here is a hilariously blunt explanation of the signs created in 1979:

4. Juicy Couture

I think we can all agree that Juicy Couture has been iconic since the 90s but the last few months they’ve been selling out almost everywhere for the first time since the early 2000s. In particular the Juicy track set has been one of the most popular; selling out on JD, Urban Outfitters, Amazon, and many other sites!!

3 Clothing Trends you need to try this Fall/Winter

We know that every season, the way we dress and the trends change a lot. I will show you 3 clothing trends you need to try this Fall and Winter if you want to be stylish. For Men and Women.

The Puffer Jacket

I started with the puffer jacket because i think it’s an essential and it’s really trendy since last year. This piece of clothing will add a touch of extravagance to your outfit and at the same time will keep you warm during Fall or Winter. If you’re searching for something useful and stylish the puffer jacket is perfect and very trendy. You can find the puffer jacket at Jack and Jones, The North Face, ASOS, Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren, Columbia and many others. Whatever your budget is, the puffer jacket can be very affordable or really luxurious, everyone can get it.

2. The Flannel

The flannel is quietly reemarging and it’s an essentiel during Autumn and Winter. It can be the clothing that makes the difference and add colours in your outfit. It’s also very trendy and budget-friendly. You can find it at Zara, H&M, ASOS, Urban Outfiters and many others.

3. Chelsea Boots

Chelsea boots are not very popular because of the sneaker movement but people are wearing these very frequently these days. I think it’s great for Autumn and it’s very comfortable. Chelsea boots are great for lifestyle (go to work, walking in the street, travel, etc.) and they add a touch of elegance to your outfit. You can find these in practically every shop online like ASOS, Urban Outfiters or Oliver Cabell. Very trendy for men and women.

Ethical rules you might not know.
Tags: Trends, Knowledge, Ethics, Improvement, Reading

Do you think you are doing everything right in your life? Here are some less known rules that may change your point of view:

No matter who you are-president, doctor, etc-whenever u join a room with people YOU have to say “Hello” first. A man shouldn't carry a women's purse. On the street, the man must walk to the lady’s left. Only servicemen can walk from the right to be ready to perform a military salute. A lady may not take off her elegant hat and gloves in the room, but not if the gloves and hat are winters. If someone invites us to come over, we should never reply with “Who else will be there?”.It's ignorant. If u are welcoming guests or if you are a guest, it is not cultural to talk on the phone for more than 2–5 minutes. Do not ask for the bill while the partner is still eating. Reporting important events via SMS is indecent and immature. Always observe confidentiality. Do not read other people’s letters, do not look at the monitor, when someone writes in the chat, talk about it, when a person enters the parliament. Do not overuse the “Send” button. Dividing the long communication into pieces, we only complicate the mutual understanding.
Tinder’s 2020 Dating Trends Are In — & They’re Full Of Tips
Tags: Trends, Tinder, Relationships, Online Dating, Dating

By Nick Levine

We all know that online dating is a minefield, so it’s always interesting (and helpful) to see how everyone else is doing it.

Tinder has just released its 2020 trends report and it’s filled with insights into what people have actually been talking about on the dating app this year.

For the first three months of the year, travel was the most used term on Tinder. This coincides with borders around the world being closed due to COVID-19 and staycations becoming the defining travel experience of 2020.

Meanwhile, Tinder says that support for Black Lives Matter became “a must” for matches in 2020. In fact, there were 55 times as many mentions of the BLM movement on the app than in the previous year.

There were also 122% more mentions of the NHS in May than at the beginning of the year, reflecting the UK’s growing appreciation of the role frontline health workers have played in combatting the pandemic.

Mentions of TikTok grew massively year-on-year as online daters starting sharing more links from the video-posting platform. The most popular song on Tinder was “Blinding Lights” by The Weeknd, but “WAP” by Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion wasn’t far behind.

Tinder daters also fully embraced the government’s rather belated advice to wear a mask to help halt the spread of COVID-19. Mask mentions were up tenfold year-on-year and there were five times as many mentions of “wear a mask” in July than in June.

And perhaps inevitably, Tinder says people switched up their chat-up lines to reflect the pandemic lives we’re living in. Some of the most groan-worthy examples included “Let’s be like COVID and catch each other” and “wash your hands so you can hold mine”.

In a way, it just goes to show that for some daters, a cheesy chat-up line never goes out of fashion.
A Self Portrait:. A Self Portrait:

A Self Portrait:

I have told my story about one hundred different ways, with one thousand different colors. Pieces of it are in frames that decorate the hallway, and others are under magnets tacked onto the fridge. Sometimes if I am lucky, part of it is hanging somewhere nice, but most of it is jammed under my bed or in my closet. This is my first attempt at painting it all into words.

I was in first grade when I received my first blue ribbon. In silver print, written in big letters, was the word “participation.” One usually would not consider a participation ribbon to be a life-defining moment, but I knew then that I wanted another. My story is in my artwork, and during these past few years of high school, I have received my fair share of participation ribbons. I would be lying to you if I said I still happily accept them. Over the years, I have definitely grown to prefer a different kind of blue ribbon, but in time, I have learned that the participation ones hold the most value.

My biggest competitor as an artist has always been myself. My next piece always has to be ‘better’ than the latter, and for a while, I let the words on my ribbon determine how successful I was. The only flaw in my system was that I failed to realize that art is subjective. Although it is unfortunate that I took so long to understand this, I am thankful for the time that I fell short to, because with every unwanted ribbon came a greater determination. I know now that nothing other than myself can define my worth, but during the time I had not known so, I learned to approach my endeavors with humility and persistence.

During my freshman year, I won the state art competition. At the time, that was the best award to ever happen to my high school art career. The next year, I poured all my time and heart into a new piece expecting the same results. I did not even make it to the second round. That was undoubtedly my least favorite participation ribbon. I felt so betrayed by a piece of fabric. I had created something that exceeded my expectations for myself. It was absolutely my favorite piece I had ever made, and I had never felt more disappointed in myself. That ribbon nearly slapped me in the face. I had become so dependent on that award that I missed out on my accomplishment. I was letting success drive me instead of passion.

Though I still happily compete, I have learned to paint because it is what I love. Now I am my own judge, and in my time doing so, I have found the most success. The most important lesson I learned during my time at Arlington Heights High School is that the destination does not matter as much as the ride. Although that participation ribbon was my least favorite, it taught me more than any first place one ever has and reminded me of why I began creating all those years ago. Going forward, I plan to continue my story with gratitude, passion, modesty, and the intent of taking none of it for granted.

Periodontal Surgeries(Gum and Bone Treatment)
By: Sonam Gupta
Tags: Trends, Thinking, Streaming, Health Foods, Men

This part covers the treatment of gums and the bone surrounding the teeth. Bone loss is an important sign of deteriorating oral status leading to loosening of teeth and development of voids in the region of supporting structural area (surrounding the teeth and jaw bone). Maintaining a healthy oral status includes a healthy gingival (gums) and bone status. Any instability in this status leads to various oral issues which ultimately damage the normal oral status of an individual. We at SMILE DESIGNERS provide all the periodontal surgeries (bone replacement and gum surgeries) to achieve the normal healthy status again. Gummy smile correction by LASER, any tissue abnormality, mobile teeth treatment (loose teeth), bad breath, all treatment facilities are available at our center. Surgical and non-surgical intervention, both the means of treatment and therapy are available.
💭 Which social network is the best to choose for brand #advertising?
By: Cpa Telegraph
Tags: Advertising, Trends, Social Network

Advertising is an important part of brand promotion. The most common platform today is social networks: here it’s easier to reach your audience, and you can do it at minimal cost. Today we will look at the advertising opportunities of the three most popular networks:

◾️ When it comes to #Facebook or #Instagram, then Ads Manager immediately 🙌🏻 comes to mind (aka Facebook advertising account). It’s what allows you to work with advertising: create campaigns, set targeting settings, work with audiences, make ads with different formats and analyze statistics and results.

◾️ Instagram, targeting and advertising from bloggers. #Instagram, with its ever-increasing audience of active users 👨‍💻, is a convenient platform for implementing your brand’s advertising. In addition to the features of targeting advertising (setting up ads, retargeting, the ability to find a similar audience using look-alike, low cost per lead), which we talked about above, there is an opportunity to buy advertising from bloggers. Here there are advantages (loyal audience, low cost per subscriber, brand recognition and image, non-standard format of presentation).

▫️The advertising opportunities of #TikTok ⚡️This is a fairly new social network, and at the same time — the only platform that offers a complete advertising tool, affecting 100% of the audience (more than 800 million users 👤). The main types of advertising in TikTok are hashtag challenge, native advertising from bloggers and targeted advertising.

In future posts, we’ll develop this topic: we’ll tell you more about creating commercial masks, promoting tracks, maintaining a personal profile, and much more.
