Real Madrid beat Granada: La Liga title race

Real Madrid swatted aside Granada 4–1 on Thursday to ensure the La Liga title race will go down to the wire.

Substitute Alvaro Odriozola restored Real’s two-goal advantage after 75 minutes and less than 60 seconds later Karim Benzema made it four after latching onto an error from Granada keeper Rui Silva.

Real moved into second place on 78 points, two behind leaders Atletico Madrid with two games left to play.

Real travel to Athletic Bilbao on Sunday while Atleti host Osasuna on the same day, with all matches kicking off simultaneously.

Should Real fail to beat Bilbao, Atletico will be champions if they overcome Osasuna.

“It’s not just about scoring goals. We played well in defense, too,” Real coach Zinedine Zidane said.

“It was a really complete game. We didn’t get overrun at 2–1 and scored quickly after and that shows what character this side has.

“It was a great win against a tough opponent at a difficult place to come to. We are going to give our all in the two remaining games until La Liga is finished.”

PM Modi transfers Rs 19,000 cr into accounts of 9.5 cr farmers; lauds them for record production despite the pandemic onslaught: PM-KISAN Samman Nidhi 8th installment

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday transferred around Rs 19,000 crores into the bank accounts of 9.5 crore farmers across the country under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN). Modi also lauded the efforts of the country`s farmers who created records in agriculture and gardening despite the onslaught of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Farmers from West Bengal will benefit from the scheme for the first time, the Prime Minister said while speaking on the occasion.

“On this auspicious day of Akshaya Tritya, around Rs, 19,000 crores have directly been transferred to the bank accounts of farmers. It would benefit close to 10 crore farmers. For the first time, farmers from West Bengal will be benefitted from this scheme,” ANI reported quoting the PM. He added that the government had purchased 10 percent more wheat on minimum support price (MSP) this year. “Amid the difficult challenges of COVID-19, farmers have made records in agriculture and gardening while the government is also setting new records on procurement on MSP every year. In comparison to last year, 10 percent more wheat has been purchased on MSP this year,” he said. “The government is constantly striving to provide new solutions, new options in farming. Such efforts are to promote organic farming. The cost of such crops is also low, they are beneficial for the soil, are healthy, and can fetch a higher price,” he added.

Under the PM-KISAN scheme, a financial benefit of Rs. 6,000- per year is provided to the eligible beneficiary farmer families, payable in three equal 4-monthly installments of Rs 2000 each.

The fund is transferred directly to the bank accounts of the beneficiaries. In this scheme, Samman Rashi of over Rs 1. 15 lakh crores have been transferred to farmer families so far.

How To Get Paid Online Freelancers - 2021

Some people think that the internet is not a real platform to make a living off of because it appears unreal due to being virtual. Some people might say that PayPal is not available in their country so they can't get paid. Others will stop working because of overthinking things like this.

Don't overthink how you will get paid because if you get an order, you will receive money, whether you link your bank account to the site (or debit/credit card) or choose to use PayPal or Payoneer to get paid. All you need to do is work hard and provide your skills and you'll start earning one way or another.

PayPal allows you to get paid online, but if it isn't available in your country, you can sign up for Payoneer, which is available almost worldwide.

With Payoneer, you can even create a virtual bank account and connect to any service to collect your money.

Setting Up Your Home Office - 5 Things To Keep In Mind

When you set up your home office for the first time there are five simple things you should take into consideration. These things are: space, quiet, lighting, office tools and security. Taking care of these five things can make your office more enjoyable and help you work more efficiently by eliminating distractions. A home office can be a space where you work full time, pay your bills, or finish the work from the office outside your home. No matter how you use your home office it has to function in the same way. Below is a detailed description of the five most important things to consider when setting up your office.

Space Space is very important in the sense that the amount of space we have to work in can create certain feelings and emotions that can affect the way we work. If you have ever worked in a small office cubicle any number of times, you have probably felt caged or cramped at least once in your time there. Feeling cramped can impede your work by distracting you from the task at hand. For most of us, we enjoy enough space to stretch our arms out in front, out to the side, and of course above our heads. You need space to move from your desk to the filing cabinet or bookshelf. You don’t have to have a spacious cathedral-like room to work in, but definitely enough space to be comfortable in. Quiet Your office should be a peaceful area where there are little to no distractions. You wouldn’t want your office next to your child’s bedroom, where they are hollering or blasting their favorite music. You wouldn’t want to be disturbed by Barney’s laugh or carton sound effects from the television. If your office space is to be used for work, you need quiet for concentration and focus that will allow you to complete your tasks effectively and efficiently. If you have a choice, try putting your office in the room furthest from the family room and your children’s rooms. Lighting Lighting can be seriously important for your morale and for the health of your eyes. Poor lighting can cause blurred vision and serious headaches. If you are forced to squint or sit absurdly close to your screen due to the level of light, then it is time you invest in a desk lamp. If you prefer natural light, then place yourself near a window to satisfy your need for an outdoor view. Office Tools If there is one piece of office equipment to invest in it is a comfortable office chair. So many people suffer from back and leg pains due to sitting in a poor office chair. You want to have enough cushions for your bottom, proper support for the back and the arms as well as a chair that can be raised and lowered for proper leg fit. Purchasing a comfortable chair can make hours in the office much more comfortable. And when you are done working for the day, you can leave the office behind instead of taking the pains with you. Security When running a home business you want to be extra cautious of the safety and security of your home. With office equipment such as computers and fax machines, you want to protect these from thieves. Also if you do any work from your home office that contains private or personal information, you want these files or documents protected. You may want to speak to an insurance agent for additional coverage. You may also want to invest in a security system or at least have your home surveyed by a security system company to evaluate your safety risks. In the day and age we live in you simply cannot be too careful. If you pay attention to these five areas when designing your home office you will be saving yourself a lot of stress and frustration. If you feel comfortable and happy when you walk into your home office you will work more effectively and efficiently. Eliminating distractions such as clutter and noise will let you focus on the task at hand and work to the best of your ability.

Bluehost Speed Test Results -2021

The most important performance metric that you should look for is speed. It not only affects user experience on your site, but it also affects your WordPress SEO rankings.

Studies show that a 1-second drop in website speed can decrease your conversion rate by 7%. A 3-second delay can cost you 50% of your traffic.

For a faster website, you will need to choose a fast website hosting company. Keeping this in mind, we created a test site to see how fast Bluehost really is.

Our test site was created using WordPress with the default Twenty Twenty theme. We imported dummy content for theme development including images. After that, we used Pingdom to test the website speed.

Here are our test results:

As you can see, our test site loads in less than two seconds. Considering the fact that our website wasn’t using any caching plugins or speed optimization tips, this result is remarkable.

However, the speed test alone isn’t enough because this test site didn’t have a large amount of traffic.

To test how Bluehost servers would respond with increased traffic, we used a testing tool called K6 (formerly LoadImpact) to send virtual users (VU) to our test site.

We used it to gradually built up to 100 visitors to see how the server would handle increased requests from multiple connections at once.

Here is a screenshot of our results.

The green line is the number of active virtual users on the site, and the blue line is the server load time. As you can see the server load remained stable throughout the test even at peak traffic.

This test indicates that if you are looking for a really fast website, then Bluehost can be a perfect fit for you.

Getresponse Pricing

In this in-depth Getresponse review, I take a look at a well-known email marketing solution and drill down into its pros and cons. Is it right for your business…or should you use an alternative?

Our overall score: 4.3/5

What is Getresponse?

Getresponse is an email marketing app that allows you to:

create a mailing list and capture data onto it

send emails to the subscribers on your mailing list

automate your emails to subscribers via the use of ‘autoresponders’

view and analyze statistics related to your email campaigns – open rate, click-through, forwards, etc.

In recent years, however, Getresponse has shifted its emphasis considerably: the product now aims to be more of an ‘all-in-one’ e-commerce and marketing solution rather than just an email marketing tool.

Accordingly, in addition to email marketing, Getresponse now also provides e-commerce features, webinar hosting, landing pages, and automated sales funnels.

Getresponse has been in business since 1998 and, according to the company, over 350,000 individuals and businesses now use the platform for their email campaigns.

Whilst this userbase is not as big as those of some other email marketing tools (notably Mailchimp), it is large enough to provide confidence that the company is well-established and is not likely to disappear any time soon.

Getresponse pricing

There are four Getresponse plans:

Basic — starting at $15 per month to send an unlimited number of emails to up to 1,000 subscribers

Plus — starting at $49 per month for up to 1,000 subscribers

Professional — starting at $99 per month for up to 1,000 subscribers

Max — negotiable.

As you add more subscribers to your list, the costs increase. At the top end of the scale, you can expect to pay $450, $499, or $580 per month to use Getresponse with a list containing 100,000 subscribers on the ‘Basic’, ‘Plus’ and ‘Professional’ plans (respectively).

Getresponse pricing (2021)

With regard to the “Max” plan, exact pricing depends on requirements and list size — if you’re interested in this plan, you’ll need to contact Getresponse to schedule a demo, discuss your needs and negotiate to price.

Decent discounts are available if you pay upfront for 12 or 24 months of service (18% and 30% respectively).

In addition to the paid plans, a 30-day free trial is also available, which you can access via this link.
