Press Release from Dragon's Domain:
Dragon's Domain Records presents a new release of PRISON. PRISON features music composed by Richard Band and Christopher L. Stone for the 1987 horror film directed by Renny Harlin (DIE HARD 2, CLIFFHANGER, CUTTHROAT ISLAND, THE LONG KISS GOODNIGHT), written by Irwin Yablans and C. Courtney Joyner, starring Lane Smith, Viggo Mortensen and Chelsea Field.
Released in 1987, PRISON revolves around a death row inmate named Charlie Forsythe (Mortensen) who was sent to the electric chair for a heinous murder he did not commit. Ethan Sharpe (Smith), a prison guard who attended the execution, was aware of Forsythe's innocence but kept it to himself. Years later, after the condemned prison is reopened by the state, Forsythe's enraged spirit is awakened and begins slaughtering inmates and guards with the intention of getting his ultimate revenge against Sharpe.
PRISON was filmed almost entirely on location in Rawlings, Wyoming at the former Wyoming State Penitentiary which had been vacated since 1981. The producers approached the state of Wyoming seeking permission to film on location within the jailhouse walls. Since the building was slated for demolition later that year, the state granted production a carte blanche license to do anything they needed to do to the building.
The plot for PRISON revolves around a death row inmate named Charlie Forsythe (Mortensen) who was sent to the electric chair for a heinous murder he did not commit. A prison guard named Ethan Sharpe (Smith)—who attended the execution—was aware of Forsythe's innocence yet kept silent. Thirty years later after the condemned prison is reopened by the state, the enraged spirit of Forsythe escapes, slaughtering inmates and guards with hopes of seeking his ultimate revenge against Sharpe, who is now the warden.
Richard Band was born in Los Angeles on December 28, 1953. He is the son of film producer-director-writer Albert Band (THE RED BADGE OF COURAGE – screen adaptation), brother to producer-distributor Charles Band and uncle to young rock star Alex Band of the rock group 'The Calling'. Shortly after his brother Charles had formed his first movie company, Richard decided to take a break from music and began to work as an assistant director on some of his films. He then went from assistant director to production manager, to associate producer and finally producer on over 13 films. Richard has since gone on to score over 75 feature films, including METALSTORM: THE DESTRUCTION OF JARED-SYN, GHOST WARRIOR, RE-ANIMATOR, FROM BEYOND, THE RESURRECTED and more and many television productions including multiple episodes of STARGATE SG-1, WALKER: TEXAS RANGER, MASTERS OF HORROR and Disney's SING ME A STORY series.
Richard has composed the music for more than 10 interactive computer/video games over the years and has had many soundtracks that have been released of his film works. Richard has also scored many documentaries including the award-winning series' MOST DECORATED, BRUTE FORCE and WEAPONS OF WAR and has also contributed much music to other series' like THE REAL WEST, CIVIL WAR JOURNALS and BIOGRAPHIES. His experience over the years has brought him to record over 22 film scores with internationally renowned orchestras such as THE ROYAL PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA, THE LONDON SYMPHONY and THE ROME PHILHARMONIC. He has also had his music recorded in Prague, Romania, Croatia and Munich.
Christopher Stone began his musical education at the age of 5, in Los Angeles, when he taught himself to play the piano by placing his hands on the keys of his father's Ampico Player Piano as they moved up and down. He quickly began creating his own compositions. He went on to study piano with Sergei Vladimirovich Tarnowsky, and conducting with Ivan Boutnikoff, Principal Conductor for the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo. At the age of 15, Stone moved to Paris, France and had the honor of studying composition with Nadia Boulanger who influenced generations of young composers from Aaron Copeland to Phillip Glass. Stone completed his formal music education at the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst in Vienna, Austria. Stone has composed music for over 20 feature films including PHANTASM II, TICKS, PHANTASM III: LORD OF THE DEAD, FIST OF THE NORTH STAR and THE STUPIDS and hundreds of television episodes for Disney, Universal, CBS, NBC, and HBO including SWAMP THING, BIOGRAPHY (1994-1998) and WALKER, TEXAS RANGER. Stone also earned the distinction of composing the very first orchestral video game scores for DRAGON'S LAIR (1983) AND SPACE ACE (1983).
Dragon's Domain Records presents a new release of PRISON, with an album sequence that closer matches the music as it is presented in the film, along with new mastering, thanks to James Nelson at Digital Outland, with liner notes written by author and composer Brian Satterwhite, with the participation of the composer.

Activity of Antimicrobial Peptides and Ciprofloxacin against Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilms
Muhammad Yasir*, Debarun Dutta, Mark D.P. Willcox
Optometry & Vision Science Research Group (OVSRG)
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is increasingly resistant to conventional antibiotics, which can be compounded by the formation of biofilms on surfaces conferring additional resistance. P. aeruginosa was grown in sub-inhibitory concentrations of the antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) melimine and Mel4 or ciprofloxacin for 30 consecutive days to induce the development of resistance. Antibiofilm effect of AMPs and ciprofloxacin was evaluated using crystal violet and live/dead staining with confocal microscopy. Effect on the cell membrane of biofilm cells was evaluated using DiSC(3)-5 dye and release of intracellular ATP and DNA/RNA. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of ciprofloxacin increased 64-fold after 30 passages, but did not increase for melimine or Mel4. Ciprofloxacin could not inhibit biofilm formation of resistant cells at 4× MIC, but both AMPs reduced biofilms by >75% at 1× MIC. At 1× MIC, only the combination of either AMP with ciprofloxacin was able to significantly disrupt pre-formed biofilms (≥61%; p < 0.001). Only AMPs depolarized the cell membranes of biofilm cells at 1× MIC. At 1× MIC either AMP with ciprofloxacin released a significant amount of ATP (p < 0.04), but did not release DNA/RNA. AMPs do not easily induce resistance in P. aeruginosa and can be used in combination with ciprofloxacin to treat biofilm.

The Rising India Summit 2019 brings together the finest names of Indian politics, business, and sports among other spheres to discuss the path forward for the nation's development. On Monday, the opening panel discussion began with Baba Ramdev and Sadhguru who engaged in a conversation with Prasoon Joshi. Union Ministers Ravi Shankar Prasad and Piyush Goyal conversed with Shereen Bhan, the editor of CNBC-TV18. MP Chief Minister Kamal Nath, Suneeta Reddy, managing director of Apollo Hospitals and SpiceJet Airlines' Ajay Singh among others were also present. And finally, Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived to deliver the keynote of the summit. His session was titled 'Beyond Politics: Defining National Priorities'. Read on for the best excerpts of his speech.
"Since you are journalists, I will opt for your favourite way to describe things. Before 2014, things that were supposed to rise were on a downfall, and vice versa," the Prime Minister began his speech saying, as he was set with a list of statistics.
"Let us talk about inflation. We all know that prices of commodities should be low. But they were increasing. Journalists would remember that 'Mehengai Dayan Khaye Jaat Hai' was a phrase, used frequently in shows. Back then, it was 10 percent. Now, it has come down to 2 or 3 per cent," he said, referring to the inflation that India suffered during UPA rule, that caused the economy to weaken.
Income slab up to Rs 5 lakh was recently exempted of income tax. The PM reminded us of that as he said, "The middle class used to ask for rebates but they were never spared. Our Government first exempted income till Rs 2.5 lakh. Then we taxed the rest till Rs 5 lakh on 10%. Now, we have exempted anyone who earns up to Rs 5 lakh, of tax".
He also emphasised that the UPA Government had taken India one of the five most fragile economies in the world. Now, India is one of the five fastest growing economies of the world. Even in business ranking, India had slipped down to 142 from 132. "We are now on 77, we have elevated by 23 spots," he said.
e kept introducing schemes for people and the money is now straight transferred to their bank accounts. Our Government has sent out almost Rs 6 lakh crore rupees to people's bank accounts. And I am proud to say that unlike before, they don't receive 15 paise out of 100 paise. They receive the full amount," he said, explaining how the primary motto of introducing bank accounts was to eliminate the middlemen.
In his speech, Modi also attempted to explain how linking AADHAR, bank accounts and mobiles proved particularly beneficial for many and helped the Government combat corruption. "When we linked general accounts, Aadhar cards and mobile numbers, too many fake documents were exposed. If your channel has 50 such people who receive their salaries every month but they don't exist, how will it survive? That's what was happening in our country. People who were never born were receiving money. Almost 8 crore fake bank accounts have been sealed and we saved Rs 1,10,000 crore that earlier went to the middlemen or to people who were not authentic. That is what has irked everyone. All the corrupt people who would earlier eat their share of the cream are now jobless," he said.
"Do you know the two words of bad luck in the country? You take up any work, they will ask you, 'Mera Kya' (How's it my problem)?' 'Mera Kya' and 'Mujhe Kya' are what caused the country's downfall," the PM chuckled.
Unemployment- a myth or a reality?
Here's what the PM said, rubbishing reports stating India was suffering from major unemployment.
"India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Without new employment and opportunities, how is that even possible? 4 crore people have drawn loans for the very first time, for their own small ventures. Is it even possible that these people were sanctioned loans but earned nothing? In the last financial year, more than 7 lakh cars have been sold. Many crores are people are consuming the aviation service today. I know that all is still not done and more work needs to be done on the job sector. That's why I am running around. I am confident, we will emerge to be a global example in terms of employment soon".
"Be it a media professional, a lawyer, a saint or anyone else, it is everyone's responsibility to point out the lackings. I am grateful to you all for fulfilling your responsibility. But let us all engage in constructive criticism," he concluded.

Cantabrians could be in the firing line for a deadly flu strain coming from the Northern Hemisphere.
Plans are under way to counter the life-threatening influenza A H3N2 strain, which has cause carnage in Europe and the United States.
Ironically, the strain is dubbed Aussie flu, where it originated.
It has touched New Zealand previously, but has missed Canterbury, meaning people here will be less resistant to it this winter.
The Canterbury District Health Board and Canterbury Primary Response Group have formed a task force to plan ahead.
Last year, the flu affected more than 230,000 Australians, killing 73, before it spread to the Northern Hemisphere.
About 150 people have died in the United States and United Kingdom respectively from the virus.
Dr Schroeder said Cantabrians and the elderly were most vulnerable to the strain. There were suspected cases in the North Island last year, but it had never reached the South Island.
The task force was preparing by monitoring trends overseas and in New Zealand, as well as encouraging flu vaccination, and that people go to their GP before hospital.
Flu centres would be ready if there was a pandemic.
"But we are only hoping to do that if absolutely necessary," he said.
Age Concern Canterbury chief executive Simon Templeton said it was "very concerned".
Dr Schroeder said the flu vaccine was the most important way to prevent a potential outbreak. This year's vaccination was updated to include Aussie flu.
Vaccination is $35 from a GP and free for people over 65 or pregnant women.
This includes developing a specialised website to be launched next month and approaching organisations like schools and workplaces directly, he said.
CDHB general manager for older persons health, orthopaedics and rehabilitation Dan Coward said the ward would have 20 additional beds for winter.
"The key messages are that people should get immunised as their best protection against flu," he said.
It's also free for people with a compromised immune system and also asthmatics I believe.

Multiple Parity Checks Making up a Hamming Code Thus each bit takes part in a different combination of parity checks. When the word is checked, if only one bit is in error, all the parity bits that use it in. Hamming code is a set of error- correction code s that can be used to detect and correct bit errors that can occur when computer data is moved or stored. Hamming code is named for R. Hamming of Bell Labs. a) Yes, the bit 3 ( d1) from left is wrong. The original data is 0110, and the correct code word is 0110011. This is the problem I have: Compute the Hamming code with odd parity for the memory wordpts. In your solution, mark the parity bits as in the following example, where. A parity bit is a bit that is added to a group of source bits to ensure that the number of set bits ( i.

Umm, the code in the questionand the code in your commentare exactly the same. So step 1 would seem to be to find a couple examples of codes where you actually know the correct answer. – user3386109 Nov 6 ' 15 at 4: 52. flash lights so the operators could correct the problem. which is the bit in error.

Break message stream into k- bit blocks. Add redundant info in the form of ( n- k) parity. Forward error- correction ( FEC) coding adds redundancy to the original data message that allows for some errors to be corrected at the receiver. The error- correction capability of the code is dependent upon many factors, but is usually improved by increasing the amount of redundancy added to the message. The parity- check matrix of a Hamming code is constructed by listing all columns of length that are non- zero, which means that the [ [ duacode of the Hamming code is the shortened Hadamard code. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search In telecommunication, a Hamming code is a linear error- correcting code named after its inventor, Richard Hamming. This feature is not available right now. Please try again later. The first thing we will do is split the byte into two Hamming code data blocks, 10. We expand the first block on the left to 7 bits: _ _ 1 _ 0 1 1. The first missing bit ( bit 1) is 0, because adding bits 3, 5 and 7 gives an even number ( 2).
Show that Hamming code actually achieves the theoretical limit for minimum number of check bits to do 1- bit error- correction. Example Hamming code to correct burst errors. For example, 1011 is encoded ( using the non- systematic form of G at the start of this section) intowhere blue digits are data; red digits are parity bits from the [ 7, 4] Hamming code; and the green digit is the parity bit added by the [ 8, 4] code. The green digit makes the parity of the [ 7, 4] codewords even. For quadruple repitition, we need to depict this as a tesseract ( a ' cube' in 4D). Hamming Distance ( more advanced geekery) The above examples show the extreme case of moving from one vertex of a graph to the other ( inverting all the bits). Richard Hamming' s code is one of the solutions to the problem. It' s perfect code ( at least, according to Hamming' s definition) that can expose and correct errors in transmitted messages. The above example created a code word of. Suppose the word that was received wasinstead.
Then the receiver could calculate which bit was wrong and correct it. This code has 15 bits of data, plus 5 of redundacy ( parity), giving a total of 20 bits per encoded symbol. To decode each symbol you need 20 bits. 2 Hamming Codes The most common types of error- correcting codes used in RAM are based on the codes devised by R. In the Hamming code, k parity bits are added to an n- bit data word, forming a new word of n k bits. correction and this code is also easy to implement. Because of the simplicity of hamming code, they are widely used in computing memory, data compression &. This PC matrix defines a code over GF( 17) with minimum distance 5.

Hamming code example Dr J. Vaughan February 11, 1 The Problem Calculate a Hamming codeword that can correct 1- bit errors in the ASCII code for a line feed, LF, 0x0a. We will examine the modulo- 2 division process later.
The common notation for this structure is Golay [ 23, 12], indicating that the code has 23 total bits, 12 information bits, and 23- 12= 11 check bits. To detect d errors, you need a distance ( d+ 1) code because with such a code there is no way that d- single bit errors can change a valid code word into another valid code word. The Hamming distance in this case is 4. Using the ( 7, 4) Hamming Code Sheet, we will compute all the Hamming distances for the received message 1111010. The codes that Hamming devised, the single- error- correcting binary Hamming codes and their single- error- correcting, double- error- detecting extended versions marked the beginning of coding theory.

US Quiz November 2020
A 68-year-old female patient presented with nonspecific abdominal pain and early satiety. Laboratorial tests revealed normal liver function and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (Ca19.9), as well as an elevated serum amylase (163 U/L). The patient had a prior history of hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia. An abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan showed a pseudonodular area measuring 12x11mm (axial), with arterial phase hyperenhancement, located in the anterior part of the transition between the body and tail of the pancreas (Fig. 1).
Figure 1. CT scan (axia showed a pseudonodular area of 12x11mm (axial), with arterial phase hyperenhancement, on the anterior part of the transition between the body and tail of the pancreas.
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) identified a hypoechoic, homogeneous, round, vascular, well-circumscribed solid nodular lesion, measuring 10×10 mm (Fig. 2 and 3).
Figure 2 and 3 – EUS identified a hypoechoic, homogeneous, round, vascular, well-circumscribed solid nodular lesion, measuring 10×10 mm.
The lesion did not communicate with the main pancreatic duct. An EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) using a 25G needle was performed with three passes (Fig. 4).

A) Pancreatic metastasis
B) Adenocarcinoma
C) Neuroendocrine tumor
D) Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm
E) Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN)
FNA cytology showed small clusters of cells with salt-and-pepper chromatin nuclei, positive for cytokeratin AE1/AE3 and synaptophysin. The findings were compatible with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET). Immunocytochemistry revealed a Ki67 index <1%. The patient also had an elevated serum chromogranin A (108 ng/mL). Positron emission tomography (PET 68Ga-DOTANOC) confirmed a hypermetabolic nodular lesion, without further enhancements. Considering the size and grade of the tumor, the patient was proposed for surveillance. However, considering the patient individual decision, a distal pancreatectomy with complete resection of a non-functional grade 1 pNET was performed.
Increasing numbers of pNET are being diagnosed incidentally during radiologic or endoscopic studies [1]. EUS with FNA is an effective method to provide an accurate identification of pNET, although contrast-enhanced ultrasonography may improve the diagnosis capacity [2]. Moreover, immunocytochemical studies offer additional information, allow grading of the tumor and support differential diagnosis between other pancreatic neoplasms and metastatic lesions [3]. However, optimal management of asymptomatic, small (<2 cm) and low grade pNET still remains controversial [4].

News WEATHER LATEST
Inspections at Lingfield and Southwell as frost threatens
Temperatures at could dip as low as -3c on Monday night
By Mark Scully 5:38PM, NOV 28 2016
This week's forecast cold weather could lead to no jumps fixtures on Tuesday, with inspections scheduled for both Lingfield and Southwell due to the threat of frost.
At Lingfield, temperatures are forecast to dip to as low as -3C, leading officials to call an inspection at 7.30 on Tuesday. The going on Monday afternoon was soft, heavy in places, with a GoingStick reading of 5.9.
It is a similar story further north at Southwell, where officials will take a look at the course at the same time before deciding whether its seven-race card can go ahead.
Temperatures are forecast to drop to a low of -5C at Southwell on Monday night, before a daytime high of 3C on Tuesday. The going on the jumps course was on Monday good to soft, good in places, with a GoingStick reading of 7.2.
Should the two meetings be lost to the cold, Newcastle's all-weather fixture would be the sole British fixture on Tuesday, with an eight-race card beginning at 1.20.
While no further inspections have yet been called for meetings later in the week, frosty conditions look likely to be a factor across the country, with Catterick set for night temperatures of -2C prior to its meeting on Wednesday.
Ffos Las also has a meeting on Wednesday and officials at the Welsh venue have warned that there is a chance of overnight frost there too.
The focus switches to Sandown at the end of the week, with racing at the Esher track on Friday and Saturday, including the Grade 1 Tingle Creek Chase.
Clerk of the course Andrew Cooper is braced for frost in the early part of this week, and has deployed covers to protect the racing surface, but is expecting temperatures to be milder overnight as the week progresses.

Speaking of safety, there are some recommendations you might want to hear about. The clothes you wear inside the zorb should be warm and comfortable. It's also better to avoid drinking water - you can have the amount of it you want later when your run or hill run will come to the end. However, snow zorbing is not more complicated than water or any other type of zorbing, it's all the same, but the snow lets you gain new speed and new impressions at the same time, which are totally worth to look into the eyes of your fear and try out something new.


What happens when two tremendously talented musicians work on a cover of a classic? Subtle magic. The song Vaseegara may be 18 years old, but it still evokes feelings of tenderness and sensuality in those of us who grew up in the days of Maddy's Minnale. Singer Jonita Gandhi and guitarist Keba Jeremiah have managed to embody those same emotions, years later.
Composed by Harris Jayaraj with lyrics by Thamarai and originally sung by Bombay Jayshree, Vaseegara has been covered plenty of times. So why is this one by Jonita and Keba so special, one might ask.
The simplicity of the cover shines through, Keba's guitar, Jonita's silky voice, her effortless pronunciation of the Tamil lyrics before switching it up to a verse in Hindi, it all works perfectly.

Vertical Systems Group: 1 Million Carrier Ethernet Ports in U.S. by '18
Thursday, September 25, 2014 Ethernet, Research, Vertical Systems
Customer installations of Carrier Ethernet services in the U.S. will reach one million ports in 2018, according to new @Ethernet research from Vertical Systems Group. The projected figure includes all retail Ethernet services at speeds ranging from sub-10 Mbps to more than 10 Gbps.
"U.S. market demand for business-class Carrier Ethernet services is solid. Enterprises and SMBs will make purchase decisions to deploy hundreds of thousands of new Ethernet ports throughout the next several years, facilitated by a range of service options and competitive price points that have never been better," said Rosemary Cochran, principal at Vertical Systems Group. "Following a 26% increase in U.S. customer port installations last year, growth projections are on track to hit the one million mark by 2018."
Vertical Systems Group's latest U.S. Ethernet research quantifies how market growth is being impacted by rising customer demand for bandwidth, coupled with falling service prices. Detailed analysis for six Ethernet service segments shows significant variations in port and revenue projections by access speed. Revenue opportunities by service, as well as the challenges of competitive pricing pressures are also quantified.

Thursday, September 25, 2014 100G, Broadcom, NTT
NTT Electronics began shipping a new 20nm 100G coherent digital signal processor (DSP) for long-haul and metro transport systems.
Broadcom confirmed the device is using its high performance 20 nanometer (nm) signal processing enhanced mixed signal technologies.
Designed in collaboration with NTT Electronics (NEL), the low-power 100G coherent PHY allows the use of a DSP within lower power and smaller second generation coherent 100G modules, including C form factor pluggable (CFP) and compact CFP2 analog coherent optical (ACO) modules.
The Broadcom-enabled coherent physical layer transceiver (PHY) consumes less than half the power of existing long-haul coherent ICs and expands the use of coherent technology to metro and shorter reach links.
"Our collaboration with NTT Electronics has resulted in a game-changing product optimized to deliver the economies of scale and flexibility needed for wide-scale adoption and rapid deployment of 100G over fiber optic networks," said Lorenzo Longo, Broadcom Vice President and General Manager, Physical Layer Products. "Our industry leading 20-nm signal processing enhanced mixed-signal technologies and A0 silicon execution has allowed NEL to substantially reduce power consumption while meeting stringent time to market requirements."
"We are strongly committed to pioneering innovation in the coherent DSP market through our robust partnership with Broadcom," said Haruhiko Ichino, NEL Executive Vice President and General Manager of Broadband System & Device Business Group. "Our novel LP-DSP has already been shipped to more than ten customers, who are designing their product families. We look forward to deployment of our product in early 2015 thereby providing value to the end customers by maximizing the number of 100G ports per system."

How to make money on Instagram
Charu Mitra Dubey 16-06-2020
Earn from your photos
A platform that was initially built for sharing photos has now become a career for influencers and popular content creators around the world. Yes, that's Instagram for you. However, most people don't know how to make money on Instagram.
Many believe that in order to earn money through Instagram, one needs a massive following.
Yes, you need an audience — the goal is to attract enough people so that advertisers will happily pay you for access to them. But even a few thousand people who are engaging with your posts is enough to make advertisers take notice of you.
Now if you're also one of those people wondering how Instagram pays and how can you earn from it, this article is for you.
4 ways to make money on Instagram
Anyone can start an Instagram account, but it takes dedication to make money from it. Here are four of the most popular ways the pros make money from their Instagram channels.
Doing sponsored posts.
Becoming an affiliate marketer.
Selling their own products.
Licensing their photos or videos.
But before proceeding with the details of how to make money on Instagram, you first need to know how to attract an authentic audience base for yourself.
How to build a following on Instagram
If you think writing a nice bio and sharing pictures from your daily life will attract a huge audience on Instagram, you're on the wrong track. You need to have a strategic approach.
Here's what you need to do in order to grow on Instagram:
Post consistently
It's your words, photos and videos that will serve as the bridge between you and the people you hope to attract. The more often you post, the more likely your audience is to find your profile and follow you.
You must start a relationship with those who are interested in your thoughts and photos.
Also, posting doesn't only mean posts — you may also live stream or add stories or anything that could help you reach your target audience.
Use hashtags
Hashtags are everywhere on social media. But it turns out that Instagram is more hashtag-dependent than any other platform. And because of this, users can even follow hashtags on Instagram.
With the help of the right set of hashtags, you can reach more of the people you're looking for, which is obviously great for your Instagram growth.
Create relationships with influencers
Influencers are the people who have clout over a specific segment of an audience. For example, Deepika Padukone is an influencer — one with 48.6 million followers. Even one mention from her can get you thousands of followers in a short span of time.
Know the peak hours
While there's no best time to post, you need to know at what timing your followers are most active.
It will take some time for you to gain followers (and for Instagram to gather enough data on them) before you will know what time of day they are most often on Instagram.
And that's the time you should be posting.
To learn your peak hours, head on to Instagram Insights and check out the followers section. But there's no need to stay up all hours just to post updates — use one of these tools to preschedule posts so you can go about your life.
Interact with your followers
Engagement is the key and is measured in actions taken — clicks, comments, shares, etc.
Instagram, just like the other social media platforms, promotes posts that have great engagement rates. After all, Instagram wants to show things that people already love to even more people.
If enough people engage with your posts, the posts can get featured in the top posts for various hashtags — or even get featured in the Explore tab. This could be your best chance to gain more followers.
And that's why engaging with your community by liking their comments and replying is essential.
So, these were the most basic ways of building an audience on Instagram. But once you have a devoted group of followers, how can you make money from it?
You may have thousands of followers on Instagram, but those followers aren't going to pay you. To make money through Instagram, you need to explore the most popular ways of getting paid.
1. Doing sponsored posts
When you succeed in building a massive follower base for yourself on Instagram, brands might reach out to you for promoting their brand name or products through your posts. Although the business pays for the post, you create it.
Once you have built a large audience for yourself, you'll be considered as a trendsetter and trusted expert for your audience. By sponsoring an Instagram post you create, the business taps into your influence to spread the word about their products/services and build trust with your audience.
Credible and authentic influencers with a loyal followings can make thousands of dollars with just one sponsored post.
2. Becoming affiliate marketer
Another way to earn through Instagram is by selling others' products. You earn a reward for every sale made through links you add to your posts.
There are many people on Instagram using this tactic to earn a substantial amount from it.
An influencer and affiliate might seem to be pretty similar but there's a little difference between them:
Partnering with an influencer is generally for creating awareness and building trust
An affiliate is for selling the brand's products and earning through commissions
However, to get a steady income from affiliate marketing, you need to have a considerable number of followers and be viewed by them as a trustworthy expert in your niche.
3. Selling their own products
If you're an entrepreneur looking for a way to get new customers, Instagram should be a must-try. Brands like Bed Colors use Instagram as their primary platform to sell their products.
It's similar to starting an Amazon fba or Shopify store, where you use the platform to sell your own products.
You may start with a few products, see if there's a market for what you're producing, and then eventually offer more.
Instagram also allows businesses to sell products directly through Instagram posts and stories. All you need to do is simply tag your products in the posts and that leads your followers to a product page on your website.
Editor's note: Once you're sure people are interested in your product, build your own eCommerce website to sell it from. GoDaddy's Online Store has all you need to sell and ship products anywhere in the world.
4. Licensing their photos or videos
There's a special connection between good visual content creators and Instagram — after all Instagram is basically a photo-sharing platform.
Whether you're a photographer, video creator, artist, or anyone who creates awesome visuals, Instagram can be a goldmine for you. Start with showcasing your best works on Instagram and promote them as much as possible on your other social channels.
Once people start to discover your work and appreciate it, you will start to earn and grow your income with time. Just keep sharing!
Set off as an earning Instagrammer
Instagram has come a long way in the last few years and now it's considered as one of the most powerful social media platforms. Now if you want to start a side hustle and earn a pretty penny, Instagram can be a good choice.
However, just like any other side hustle, Instagram needs consistent effort along with a pinch of patience. And once you excel in both these qualities, you pave your way as a successful earning Instagrammer.
