Unlock Video SEO: Boost Your Website's Visibility and Rank Higher

Image
Can you define VSEO in a few words? VSEO stands for Video Search Engine Optimization and refers to the practice of making videos visible and referencing oneself through videos. VSEO will enable you to improve your positioning and make your content appear both on video hosting platforms, such as YouTube or TikTok, and on traditional search engines. Where can video content appear on Google? When a search is performed, videos can appear in a number of ways. Internet users can exploit the filtering system offered by search engines and ask to obtain only video results, in the same way as for news or images. It's also possible that Google deems that for a specific query, it's relevant to display videos in an insert, which appears in the top or bottom corner of the screen. But this varies enormously from query to query. Video content may appear every time, or it may never appear at all. What's more, the system is constantly evolving. There was a time when videos were frequent...

How to Know if You're Blocked on Snapchat: Expert Tips

Image
Snapchat doesn't tell you if you've been blocked. If someone has blocked you on Snapchat, this means that they are preventing you from accessing the content they publish on the platform and forbidding you from getting in touch with them. Blocking a person is done discreetly, and Snapchat doesn't send a notification to the blocked user. However, there are a few things you can do to find out if you've been blocked by one of your contacts. But first of all, it's important to remember that blocking social networks is a security measure. There are many reasons why a user might activate it: a personal dispute, discomfort in a conversation, a feeling of insecurity, and so on. So it's vital to respect your contact's decision and not insist on getting back in touch.

LockBit Ransomware Falters Post-Cronos: Remedies for Business Survival

Image
In the digital arena, where cybercriminals and law enforcement agencies clash, Operation Cronos recently sounded a thunderclap. Like an action scene from a Hollywood movie, this operation targeted the notorious LockBit ransomware organization. But should the end of such an organization also mean the end of good practices in preventing cyberattacks? LockBit's survival dilemmas As in any good thriller, the villains have more than one trick up their sleeves: LockBit's leaders, dodging the clutches of justice, remain elusive shadows to this day.
