It is also one of the most popular ways for search engines to rank websites. In knowing this you now know that when you are developing your website there is core factors that you need to pay careful consideration to.The first critical point of creating your website for link popularity is the design. When you receive a request for you to host someone else’s link or making a link for a link exchange you need to be sure to check over the website thoroughly. Most generally the first things that you should take a look at would be the layout of the site as well as the theme of the site. If you find sites that have a general theme or topics that are in close relation to yours should definitely be put into consideration for making them a link partner. This is a great way to gain targeted traffic to your site.One thing to remember is if you looked at someone else’s you can surely bet that they will take a look at yours. To avoid being turned down for poor content you need to make sure your site looks good. You need to make sure your theme and layout relate to the content of your site in detail. Make sure that you do not go overboard in doing this.The next thing you need to do is be sure to check the links and the resource section. If the site that you are looking at has these things are they easily accessible and easy to find? Are their rules of linking easy to read and follow? Do they accept links from other sites in their topic field or do they pick and choose only certain ones? When you become a part of a sites link program it can become very beneficial to you and your site.Just like with the theme discussed above the same goes for your links. If you were a visitor to your site would you be able to find your links easily? Is it easy for someone to navigate their way around the site? Do you have too many graphics which can take the attention away from the links? Is it pleasing to the human eye? Does your information seem to you to be organized in a manner that looks appealing and is easy to read? You will want to also have somewhere on your site a short note whether or not you will exchange links. It is a good practice to except link exchanges as it will increase your traffic popularity. You need to also put in the short note what types of links you are willing to accept on your site. These sites should relate to your content.Your source code is also a very important step in your web design. The source code is what the search engines read and if you do not do this correctly you will not succeed in your business. There are certain components that are crucial to your source code which include the following. Does your website contain any frames? Do you have headers, titles, as well as Meta tags? Does your use of keywords seem to be relevant where placed as well as optimized enough to be noticed by the web crawlers? These are all very important components to your source code portion of your site.The next important step in designing your site would be the content of the site. The information you place on your site is just as important as the design. Sites that have high link popularity and the more popular sites in the search engines have valuable information and resources that is important to the reader. Whatever the topic is in your website be sure that you have relevant and valuable information for your reader to read. They will stay and read and keep coming back when you do this.When you take time to create a great web design with valuable content you will gain link popularity. This link popularity will get you noticed by the search engines and your traffic will explode as a result. </p><div class="mads-block"></div>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://otmicms.info/how-to-make-your-website-link-popularity-friendly,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Business & Technology Crack</title> <link>https://otmicms.info/business-technology-crack,html</link> <comments>https://otmicms.info/business-technology-crack,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 27 Mar 2023 15:19:12 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://otmicms.info/?p=51</guid> <description><![CDATA[Many people say that the business drives the technology whereas some people say that the technology drives the business.

It is really unknown that which is really responsible for what and I must say that the emergence of the information technology has really made it even more complex. All the people who are involved in the business as well as the technology are really in dilemma that which theory is correct. However I have different ideas. I feel that sometimes the technology drives the business and sometimes the business drives the technology. In fact it is right to say that the business and technology are interdependent. I would like to prove the same with the help of this article.Just think that when it was decided that each company should have a board of directors. I must say that this is really a very old practice. Even the ancient Romans too had this in their administration. I really feel that this indicate that the technology came afterwards and hence business need lead to the evolution of the technology. For example the telegraph became famous because of the Reuters. In deed it was the biggest news agency in the world which first used the telegraph for their work. There are many more examples.The industrial revolution which brought about the great change in the field of the business was ignited due to the invention of the steam engine. This really made the world of business grow fore fold throughout the world. This gives us the indication that the technology played an important role for business to become global. In fact the technology is responsible for the globalization of the business.But this does not mean that the technology drives the business. Yes, you can say that the technology increases the speed at which the business activities are performed. But saying that the business is driven by the technology is still not correct.Let me explain you another side of this topic. You know why the telegraph was discovered. Yes this happened because the world of business needed this. The Reuters were the first to use the telegraph and they become the best in the world. Hence can we say that the technology works as the cutting edge so that one business leads over the other? Yes this is really the truth and this time we are absolutely right. This is really the main thing about the relationship between the technology and the business.One can only say that with the help of technology you can win the race which is on among the rivalry businessmen. Let’s think about the issue of the first paragraph and I am quiet confident to say that sometimes the business is driven by the technology and sometimes the technology comes into vicinity because of the business needs. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://otmicms.info/business-technology-crack,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>How to Recognize a Troubled Portfolio</title> <link>https://otmicms.info/how-to-recognize-a-troubled-portfolio,html</link> <comments>https://otmicms.info/how-to-recognize-a-troubled-portfolio,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 23 Mar 2023 06:38:06 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://otmicms.info/?p=49</guid> <description><![CDATA[Project portfolios are important tools, but they can be hidden sources of trouble and can even doom new projects before they even get off the ground.

Developing an accurate, positive project portfolio is important, but it can be harder to do than many might think.<br />Signs of Portfolio Trouble<br />There are many different signs of a failing portfolio. For one, if your organization sees more than a 30% failure rate in new projects, chances are good that your portfolio is actually responsible. If the portfolio isn’t supported by upper management, there’s a reason for this (trouble). If there are resource allocation problems, blame your portfolio troubles. Low KPIs can also be signs of trouble in your portfolio. Where do these problems come from, though?<br />Incorrect Portfolio Management<br />When an artist builds his or her portfolio, they don’t shove every single piece of art they’ve ever created into the bag and hope against hope that their failures will outweigh their successes. That’s not what a portfolio is for. Artists cherry pick the pieces in their portfolio, showcasing a variety of styles and techniques, media, subject matter and more. Your project portfolio management needs to take a similar tack.<br />You might think that a troubled portfolio is the result of already troubled projects (and it can be). However, it’s just as likely that your projects are troubled because of problems within the portfolio that gives birth to them. They’re doomed from the outset, so to speak.<br />Steps of the Portfolio Manager<br />Your portfolio should have a manager whose responsibility it is to ensure that everything’s managed and organized properly. If this isn’t the case, there’s the majority of your problem right there. What else should a portfolio manager do, though?<br />First, they should ensure portfolio control and monitoring by providing clear KPIs and outline measurements. They should also determine steps required to approve project investments and define the process and guidelines that directly affect management of the portfolio. Finally, they need to communicate with senior management and get approval for managing the project portfolio. That’s quite a bit of responsibility, but it’s essential.<br />Building Better Portfolios<br />There are things that project managers can do to help improve the project portfolio within their organization. One of these is to ensure that all takeaways are clearly outlined and detailed. This applies to all projects, whether they were successful or not. Takeaways embody important knowledge that should be added to the growing pool within the organization to be accessed by other PMs, as well as stakeholders and senior management.<br />Portfolio managers can also take steps to ensure they build the ideal portfolio. Part of this is identifying and selecting the right projects. As mentioned, not all projects should be included, just as not all works of art are included in an artist’s portfolio. Objective selection and prioritization norms must be chosen to ensure the best possible portfolio for the organization.<br />With these tips, you should be able to better manage and organize any project portfolio.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://otmicms.info/how-to-recognize-a-troubled-portfolio,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Here’s a Concept – Take an Infantile Approach to Project Management</title> <link>https://otmicms.info/here%e2%80%99s-a-concept-%e2%80%93-take-an-infantile-approach-to-project-management,html</link> <comments>https://otmicms.info/here%e2%80%99s-a-concept-%e2%80%93-take-an-infantile-approach-to-project-management,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 23 Mar 2023 06:32:10 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://otmicms.info/?p=47</guid> <description><![CDATA[Sometimes in research for my blog posts I get stopped by a headline that makes me want tor read more.

Such as this one from the CobaltPM blog that proclaimed, “Run Your Project Like a Baby Would.”</p><p>Initially that reminded me of the old joke, “I slept like a baby last night. I wet my bed and cried because I was hungry.” (Nowhere did I say it was a good joke.) Then it got me thinking more of “Everything I Need To Know I Learned in Kindergarten.”</p><p>The CobaltPM blog says you should do these four things to be better a better project manager:</p><p>Smile a Lot<br />Trust People<br />Do What Feels Right<br />Show Your Emotions<br />The simple advice of “Smile a lot” is a good one. As the writer observes, “If you start to smile more often in your projects then you should find that other people around you start doing the same, which has got to be a good thing.”</p><p>Smiling can even have benefits beyond the office. According to Dr. Mark Stibich, the longevity expert at About.com, smiling helps the immune system work better. He says, “When you smile, immune function improves possibly because you are more relaxed. Prevent the flu and colds by smiling.” A smile has to be less painful than a flu shot (at least for most people) and it helps make your work relationships healthier.</p><p>Trusting people is going to take, well, a lot of trust on your part if that’s not your personality. It can be difficult to suddenly put your faith in others. It’s not as ingrain for adults as it is for infants. The CobaltPM blog says, “… you should look to let the people you work with earn your trust. This is a two-way process and if you are open to doing it then you should find that you both benefit from it.”</p><p>There is a caveat, though. Let’s say someone does something and loses your trust. Kids are good at giving second chances. Be like a kid in this regard but trust your adult instincts.</p><p>Forbes.com has a good article on why trust is important in the workplace. Among its findings, teams that trust each other get better results than teams that don’t, according to the HCI study, Building Trust 2013: Workforce Trends Defining High Performance, which was based on a survey of business professionals. Forbes.com also found employees will stay at an organization longer and be more engaged when there is a high degree of trust. “These high trust organizations earn loyalty from all stakeholders including employees, customers, suppliers, distributors, and investors,” the article said.</p><p>“Do what feels right” can make some managers nervous. After all, what feels right to one employee might feel dangerously wrong to an organization. The CobaltPM blog says, “If you have stopped trusting your instincts then it is time to get back to them again and see how it helps. If you still have nagging doubts then look to back up these gut feelings with hard facts as well.”</p><p>Dr. Cara Baker, writing at The Huffington Post, says, “Very simply put: We do not trust our instincts. We forget we are hard-wired for well-being and success.” Remember to document when your intuition was right instead of focusing on when it was wrong, she adds. That will make you trust your instinct more.</p><p>Finally, the last piece of advice is “Show your emotions.” Now, you may not want to stamp your feet and cry if things don’t go your way. But, the CobaltPM blog says, do show your emotions when things are going right. “It can be easy to get caught up in a tough project so much that you don’t let people see when you are happy with something which has been done and this is definitely something you should think about doing more often,” the blog says.</p><p>So, the next time you get upset by a screaming baby on a plane, just remember this. Those little wailers are actually bastions of good advice that could help your project management career go more smoothly.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://otmicms.info/here%e2%80%99s-a-concept-%e2%80%93-take-an-infantile-approach-to-project-management,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Lead with Optimism</title> <link>https://otmicms.info/lead-with-optimism,html</link> <comments>https://otmicms.info/lead-with-optimism,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 23 Mar 2023 06:20:57 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://otmicms.info/?p=45</guid> <description><![CDATA[Project managers are leaders.

There are many different leadership styles out there, but one of the most effective options for PMs is to lead with optimism. What does that mean and what does it offer? It takes a little explaining to really drill down to the bedrock here, but you’ll learn more below.<br />Optimism vs. Pessimism<br />Are you a glass half-empty sort of person? Lots of folks are. In your private life, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. However, in a leadership position, your pessimism will leach into your team and color their perceptions of the project and even you as the project manager. Even the most optimistic team member will have trouble staying optimistic in the face of a pessimistic leader.<br />Optimism vs. Aggression<br />Aggressive management techniques have long been touted as some of the most effective. However, there are a few good reasons to consider ditching your outright or passive aggressive methods for optimism. First, while aggressive management certainly helps you get things done, it can also rub many team members the wrong way. A lot of people dislike abrasive, pushy leaders, and that’s often how you come off if you lead in an aggressive manner.<br />When Bad Situations Arise<br />Unless you’re very lucky, you’ll experience a negative situation or two during your project. Hopefully, those are minor and short-lived, but you’ll still need to deal with them. Handling them in an aggressive way might seem like the right move, but it’s not, particularly if you’re being pushy toward team members who are also having to deal with the negative repercussions of the problem. Optimism works better, and it can also help foster a better sense of teamwork and even offer hope to team members downtrodden by whatever negative event happened. Hope is important. Teamwork is vital.<br />If you’re a negative-style manager (pessimism), you’ll find that your mode of operation here actually makes things worse. Even if you’re trying to correct the situation, your management method will make your team members negative, which makes forward progress difficult, if not impossible. Optimistic management methods, on the other hand, infect your team members with optimism and a sense that anything can be accomplished.<br />Why Do You Need an Optimistic Team?<br />Why does having an optimistic team matter? It actually impacts a great deal within your project. A sense of optimism leads to the feeling that your team can do anything, as mentioned. That’s important, because it can be easy to become discouraged if problems mount during your project. Optimism equates to better performance under pressure. In short, your team will be more effective and your project more successful.<br />Leading with optimism is important, but it can be difficult to do. Take the time to evaluate your management style. Do you let problems and setbacks turn your outlook negative? Do you then transfer that outlook to your team? If so, you might be sabotaging your own success.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://otmicms.info/lead-with-optimism,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>An Inside Look at the Importance of a Smile in Sales</title> <link>https://otmicms.info/an-inside-look-at-the-importance-of-a-smile-in-sales,html</link> <comments>https://otmicms.info/an-inside-look-at-the-importance-of-a-smile-in-sales,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 18 Oct 2022 06:26:13 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Auctions]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Audio Streaming]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Banner Advertising]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Blogging]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Businesses Online]]></category> <category><![CDATA[E Books]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Ecommerce]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Forums]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Internet Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Link Popularity]]></category> <category><![CDATA[List Building]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Podcasting]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Publishing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Search Engine Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[SEO]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Site Promotion]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Social Media]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Social Networking]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Traffic Building]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Video Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Design]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Development]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Web Hosting]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://otmicms.info/?p=32</guid> <description><![CDATA[If you’re in sales, then you’ve probably heard all sorts of advice, from “don’t oversell” to “focus on solving problems.” However, one of the best pieces of advice that many forget is to smile!

After all, your smile is one of the first features people notice about you, and it plays an essential role in the first impression you make. Keep reading to learn all about the importance of a smile in sales (as well as how cosmetic dentistry can help!).</p><p>Smile: Your Sale Depends on It!</p><p>Knowing your product and knowing your audience are key in sales. However, you don’t get far if your client doesn’t trust you or believe you. That’s why it’s so important to make a good first impression! Here are a few ways a smile can help:</p><p>• Smiling is more powerful than you might think – One study found that smiling has the same effect on our brain as $25,000 in cash!</p><p>• Smiling communicates your state of mind – Smiling is a non-verbal cue that you are happy to be where you are, that you are confident in your product, and that you are ready and willing to help.</p><p>• Smiling creates a ripple effect of positivity – Have you ever seen a friend yawn and done the same? Or seen someone take a sip of water and immediately realized you’re thirsty? Thanks to the mirroring neurons in our brains, we naturally mimic the behavior of those around us.</p><p>But What If You Don’t Like Your Smile?</p><p>If you don’t like your smile, don’t worry – that’s where cosmetic dentistry comes in. Whether you’re struggling with misaligned, misshapen, cracked, or otherwise imperfect teeth, your smile goals aren’t out of reach. The first step? Scheduling an appointment with a skilled cosmetic dentist. For both my father and myself, providing high-quality, personalized, and judgment-free dentistry is a passion. There’s truly nothing better than seeing someone walk out of our office with a dazzling, confident smile! So, don’t wait to make your dream smile a reality – it could make all of the difference when it comes to your personal and professional life!</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://otmicms.info/an-inside-look-at-the-importance-of-a-smile-in-sales,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>The Best Job In The World?</title> <link>https://otmicms.info/the-best-job-in-the-world,html</link> <comments>https://otmicms.info/the-best-job-in-the-world,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 18 Oct 2022 06:25:21 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Adventure Travel]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Airline Travel]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Aviation Airplanes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Budget Travel]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Camping]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Car Rentals]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Charter Jets]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Outdoors]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Sailing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Travel and Leisure]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Travel Planning]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Vacation Homes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Vacation Rentals]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://otmicms.info/?p=30</guid> <description><![CDATA[1999 was probably the worst year of my professional life.

Unsatisfying office jobs followed by long periods of unemployment and claiming benefits. I’d also missed out on an opportunity to train as a Microsoft certified programmer because I was unable to find a placement. The dream of making my way into the world of employment had turned into an absolute nightmare, at times I felt like a total failure.</p><p>Towards the end of 1999 an opportunity arose for me to work in a casino. I’d always loved card games after seeing the glitz and glamour of casinos in James Bond movies. Dissatisfied with life in Northern Ireland, at the age of just 20, I packed a couple of suitcases and ended up going to the Isle of Man to train as a croupier (casino dealer) in January 2000. 18 months later I was working on my first cruise ship, and 18 months after that I was boarding the QE2 (the most famous ship of them all) to do a world cruise.</p><p>For a young man from a housing estate in Antrim, Northern Ireland this was beyond even my wildest dreams. On a ferry from Belfast to Liverpool in 1997, I’d once seen a pontoon table and croupier and dreamt what it may be to work as a casino dealer on the high seas.</p><p>Everything aboard the QE2 was as you would expect, starting with Captain Ron Warwick, who looked exactly what the captain of the QE2 should look like (Google the name if you don’t believe me). Passenger facing crew were immaculate in their appearance. I could probably have shaved with the crease on my pressed tuxedo shirts, and on a number of occassions when I had been sunburnt in port, I could feel the creases cutting into my tender skin as I dealt the cards that evening in the casino.</p><p>The great thing for croupiers on cruise ships is that they only work when the ship is in international waters, in port, the casino must close, and casino staff are free to do pretty much whatever they want. Casino staff have a cabin steward who cleans their cabin and takes away their dirty laundry and brings it back fresh each day. We did a 103 day world cruise which included stops in places like Hong Kong, Sydney, Cape Town, Hawaii, Mauritius, Nagasaki, Tahiti and Singapore to name a few. I managed to do some amazing excursions like diving in the great barrier reef, quad biking in the Namibian desert, and dining in all sorts of fine restaurants, trying delicacies like Springbok, Kangaroo, Crocodile and Kobe beef. We made stops in 5 continents, crossed the equator and even experienced living a Tuesday in consequetive days when we crossed the world timeline. Imagine that, you go to bed on Tuesday night, wake up the following morning and its Tuesday again, but this was far from groundhog day.</p><p>The role in the casino was not about taking passengers’ money like in a land-based casino, it was about providing them with fun and entertainment. The passengers were friendly and pleasant, many of them being extremely successful people (I understand the lowest cabin cost for a world cruise on the QE2 was about $50,000 in 2003). A lot of the passengers had never played in a casino and were fascinated to learn and experience the one onboard. Just getting to know some of these people was an experience in itself, and a large part of the role in the casino was simply to entertain them whilst they were in the casino.</p><p>There were also celebrity passengers. We would finish work and go to the crew/members bar where we would have guest entertainers like the late Des O’Connor and the magician, the late Paul Daniels down to have a drink. God bless them both.</p><p>Was my job the best job in the world?

Well.. in order to limit this there are some things you as a Realtor can look for while showing the home to your client that are definitely red flags, and at least could be brought up so the client isn’t surprised by a bad report. As a home Inspector and owner of SafeHome Home Inspections (www.safetulsa.com) the easiest thing to look at for somebody who is not trained is a bad electric panel.</p><p>A “Bad” electric panel in the eyes of any home inspector means “unsafe” or less safe than other panels. It has been determined by studies, lawsuits, etc that these panels are not desirable.</p><p>Here is a list of bad panels that are very common in the Tulsa area. These panels are likely present in your local market as well, and every or nearly every home inspector will call them out in the report as in need of further evaluation for replacement: Zinsco, FPE (Federal Pacific Electric) Stab-lok, Challenger. These are the most common “bad” panels that I run into here in Tulsa.</p><p>You don’t need to do very much work to identify these panels, oftentimes they are labeled somewhere in plain sight. A word of caution though, the access door is fairly easy to open most of the time but you should never open the deadpan front cover, It’s dangerous and would require tools anyway and you might as well leave something for the inspector to do .</p><p>I could go into detail about why these electric panels are dangerous and the different studies that have been done about them over the years but why bore you with that? If you want more information you can do a quick google search on any of these brands or look up one of the main studies by Mechanical and Materials engineer Dr. Jesse Aronstein titled “Hazardous FPE circuit breakers and panels: Information for Homeowners, Inspectors, and Electricians”</p><p>While you may not have to avoid a home like this completely, letting the buyer know in advance will at least prepare them so there isn’t a shock on the report, and who knows, maybe a seller will still be willing to change out the panel “in today’s market”. If so, that’s a major win for the customer and a great value to your client.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://otmicms.info/avoiding-a-bad-home-in-advance,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Microsoft Excel to Power BI: Why you should migrate your data and reports.</title> <link>https://otmicms.info/microsoft-excel-to-power-bi-why-you-should-migrate-your-data-and-reports,html</link> <comments>https://otmicms.info/microsoft-excel-to-power-bi-why-you-should-migrate-your-data-and-reports,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 18 Oct 2022 06:23:49 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Auto Loans]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Budgeting]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Commercial Loans]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Credit]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Credit Tips]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Currency]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Debt Management]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Finance]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Home Equity Loans]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Loans]]></category> <category><![CDATA[PayDay Loans]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Personal Finance]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Personal Loans]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Property]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Student Loans]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Trading]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://otmicms.info/?p=26</guid> <description><![CDATA[Microsoft Excel comes to mind when considering a suitable reporting tool for businesses.

Excel has been a natural choice for years because of its data organization and analysis capacity. However, as systems change and the demands for data analytics become more complex, it has become clear that the software has some limitations, hence it is necessary to shift from excel to power bi.</p><p>For organisations, Microsoft’s Power BI provides robust analytics and reporting features. Power BI delivers significantly more insight than Excel thanks to faster experimentation with visualisations, statistical functions, and calculations across large datasets and the capability to derive answers instantly through the quick recombination of fields.</p><p>Listed below are a few advantages of moving from excel to power bi:</p><p>Excel to Power bi – Accessing and Storing Large Quantity of Data</p><p>Microsoft Excel can perform simple and complex arithmetic operations and functions. However, its effectiveness wanes when you have enormous amounts of data that cannot be opened. This makes it less than ideal.</p><p>You can view, analyse, and visualise the more significant data sets that Excel struggles to manage with Power BI’s impressive comprehension capabilities. Not only are these things possible, but your files can also be stored and analysed using only 50 megabytes. To import and cache your data inside a .PBIX file, Power BI makes use of robust comprehension algorithms.</p><p>Efficiency is one of the most apparent reasons why Power BI is such a valuable tool. It eliminates the need to aggregate or reduce the size of large datasets to show a more comprehensive analysis. Instead, all the most minute details and summaries can coexist in one file and be evaluated through drill-downs.</p><p>In addition to having a massive amount of storage space, you can also edit and prepare your data. Many tasks are made simple by Power BI.</p><p>Excel to Power bi – Data Protection</p><p>Any business has always placed a high priority on data security. For all kinds of organisations, big or small, the growing threats of data theft, unauthorised access, and invasion by foreign entities have become major concerns. Excel has features that safeguard your data. Excel limits access to files, sheets, or any worksheet as part of security measures.</p><p>The user can keep any document locked to prevent unauthorised personnel from accessing the data. The read-only option prevents external parties from editing or otherwise altering the document. Excel does provide security features, but they are basic and lack more sophisticated features.</p><p>In contrast, Power BI offers data protection features that are highly dependable, scalable, and responsive to current business requirements. Power BI has the industry’s best built-in security control. Role-based authentication, cloud security, risk monitoring, risk identification, and network security are a few of the security features that Power BI offers.</p><p>Compared to Excel security features, Power BI’s data security measures are unquestionably more detailed and trustworthy.</p><p>Excel and Power BI provide analytics features, but in comparison, Power BI’s presentation of the visuals and analytical results is much more thorough and appealing. Excel offers basic analytical features, whereas Power BI provides advanced, business-focused analytical features.</p><p>Although some of the more recent charts are available in Excel, they cannot connect to the data model. Excel’s portfolio does not currently include some of the newest trending charts at the application level. It only has restricted access to the data model as a result.</p><p>However, Power BI has all the features necessary to satisfy customers’ new demands interactively. With the help of Power BI, an organisation can access real-time dashboards, performance indicators, and an alert system. Using data from the past, the organisation can visualise the present and future data.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://otmicms.info/microsoft-excel-to-power-bi-why-you-should-migrate-your-data-and-reports,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Seven Tips For A Long And Healthy Life</title> <link>https://otmicms.info/seven-tips-for-a-long-and-healthy-life,html</link> <comments>https://otmicms.info/seven-tips-for-a-long-and-healthy-life,html#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 18 Oct 2022 06:23:16 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Acne]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Anti Aging]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Beauty]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Cosmetic Surgery]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Diabetes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Drug Abuse]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Health and Fitness]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Massage]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Meditation]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Nutrition]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Personal Training]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Popular Diets]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Skin Care]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Spa and Wellness]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Speech Pathology]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Weight Loss]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Yoga]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://otmicms.info/?p=24</guid> <description><![CDATA[However great as current clinical innovation may be, it can never save you from the issues brought about by a way of life that is unfortunate.

The following are seven hints on the best way to carry on with a long and sound life. Moreover, the very way of life that assists you with staying away from disease additionally assists you with shedding pounds.</p><p>Get Sufficient Activity<br />In the past individuals needed to involve their actual bodies throughout their typical work. Be that as it may, today somebody might get up, go to work in a vehicle, then plunk down, get up to return home in the vehicle and while showing up at home, plunk down again until the end of the day. In such a daily existence there is no actual work. This actual latency is one of the fundamental explanations behind a large group of infections. Sport, running. strolling and different things should be added to our life in the event that our ordinary work doesn’t expect us to truly strive. I</p><p>Fall asleep when you feel drowsy<br />This might sound straightforward, yet many individuals keep awake until late in any event, when their body is letting them know that the time has come to rest. Yoga and Ayurvedic specialists additionally say that dozing in the evening and be dynamic during the day is better. Notwithstanding, individuals, for example, understudies will take espresso and energizers to concentrate until quite a bit later. Others foster the propensity for staying dynamic around evening time and dozing during the day. While we can do this, it in the long run negatively affects wellbeing. Elective wellbeing specialists say that this sort of unnatural living is one of the contributing variables in the causation of malignant growth and different sicknesses</p><p>Eat when you feel hungry<br />This is likewise a basic thought, yet by and by we frequently conflict with the messages of the body. Assuming you eat without much forethought or because of prevailing difficulty at specific time, in any event, when you have no genuine hunger, then you won’t process your food appropriately. Sharpness and heartburn start, and this adds to the probability of other more intricate infections flourishing. Having a craving is really an indication of good wellbeing, however in the event that you have no hunger you ought to stand by a little and, eat. (On the off chance that you have no craving even in the wake of anticipating a sensible measure of time, then, at that point, you ought to counsel a specialist since something is off-base.)</p><p>4.Fast on a Normal, Deliberate Premise</p><p>Assuming you would request that any individual work 365 days out of each year with no rest, they would whine and say that they should have some rest or probably they will separate. Be that as it may, we have never tried to get some information about our stomach related organs which we urge to work a large number of days without a rest. They can’t fight the manner in which an individual would to his chief, however they really do give us flags that they can’t work relentless. At the point when we overlook those signs regardless constrain them to work, those organs separate. For that reason intermittent fasting is fundamental. Cease from eating for one complete day. This gives a rest to your stomach related organs and furthermore helps in the disposal of squanders from your body. Standard fasting permits an individual to acquire additional time for scholarly or otherworldly pursuits. Fasting isn’t so much for loners in a cavern, however is a reasonable practice that anybody can rehearse.</p><p>Wash with cool water prior to heading to sleep<br />As referenced above, appropriate rest is fundamental for the upkeep of wellbeing. On the off chance that you wash your significant engine and tactile organs (hands, arms, eyes, legs, mouth, private parts) before rest utilizing cool water, this will loosen up you and set you up for profound rest.</p><p>Perform contemplation consistently<br />Your body is connected to your brain. Large numbers of the sicknesses of this period are psychosomatic. Stress and nervousness negatively affect our actual wellbeing. Contemplation is a psychological activity which, in addition to other things, permits you to disengage yourself from the concerns of life. Become familiar with a straightforward procedure and do it consistently.</p><p>Rise and shine early consistently<br />Yet again the old precept, “Right on time to bed, ahead of schedule to rise makes an individual solid, well off and savvy.” I couldn’t say whether it will make you rich, yet it will positively make you sound. Your body needs barely sufficient rest, not to an extreme and not excessively little.</p><p>Follow these tips and you can’t turn out badly.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://otmicms.info/seven-tips-for-a-long-and-healthy-life,html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel></rss> If you would like to create a banner that links to this page (i.e. this validation result), do the following:
