  12. Avatare, virtuelle Personen, sind reine Kunstprodukte ihrer Erschaffer, in ihrem Aussehen frei gestaltet nach Belieben und Fantasie.

    In seinem Science Fiction Roman Idoru2 (japanische Adaption von des Englischen Wortes Idol)
    erzählt William Gibson von der virtuellen Diva Rei Toei,
    Sängerin und Frontfrau der erfolgreichsten Band
    ihrer Zeit, die nur im Cyberspace existiert. Im Jahre des Herrn 2004 hat die Suche
    nach der Schönsten der Schönen eine neue Facette bekommen. Schon heute, im Zeitalter von Computer und Internet, braucht ein Schönheitswettbewerb nicht einmal an einem realen Ort stattzufinden, gebunden an den Geschmack des Kulturraumes und für
    Teilnehmerinnen eingeschränkt durch Landesgrenzen: Avatare
    reisen in Sekundenschnelle im Netz. Im vergangenen Jahr
    hatte der italienische Designer Franz Cerami erstmals dazu aufgerufen,
    virtuelle Schönheiten zu entwerfen und in den internationalen Wettbewerb zu schicken. Der erste digitale Schönheitswettbewerb Miss Digital World war ein Erfolg, 39 weibliche Avatare gingen an den Start und die internationale Presse
    begleitete die neuartige Misswahl mit großem
    Interesse. Untern Teilnehmern waren neben privaten 3D-Designern auch die schmetterlingsbeflügelte Elfe Dawn, ursprünglich von NVidia als Demo für Grafikkarten entwickelt, die Halb-Vampirin BloodRayne, Heldin aus dem
    gleichnamigen Computerspiel von Terminal Reality und
    Majesco, und Webbie, Markenikone der Telecom Brazil.

    area of interest as yours and my visitors would genuinely benefit from a

  20. SEO ist komplex und wird mit der Zeit immer komplexer.
    Es herrscht längere Zeit nimmer möglich, mit langen Keyword-Listen unter deinem Text oder dem Eintrag deiner Website
    in 100 Webkataloge Top-Positionen zu ergattern. Zur Suchmaschinenoptimierung gehört mehr!
    Diese 29 SEO-Tipps solltest du umsetzen, wenn du dein Google-Ranking in 2020 (und
    dazu) verbessern möchtest. Und nicht nur ein Abstufung, sondern deutlich!
    Ein Rich Snippet mit 4 FAQ-Toggles ist ungelogen 253 Pixel hoch.

    Durch die Anzeige dieser Toggles wird dein Suchergebnis größer
    und auffälliger. Danach bei durchschnittlich 4,8%!
    Ich will Ihnen nicht zu nahe treten das ist Bullshit.

    Wenn du mit einem FAQ Rich Snippet rankst, drückst
    du die anderen Suchergebnisse zwei bis drei Plätze herunter.
    Für Google und Menschen zu schreiben ist kein Widerspruch
    (wenn man es richtig macht). Denn Googles Ziel ist es auch nicht, tausende
    SEO-Nischenseiten auf den ersten Plätzen sitzen geblieben, sondern vielmehr Nutzern die
    bestmöglichen Inhalte anzuzeigen und die
    bestmögliche Nutzererfahrung zu bieten.

    your RSS feed to my Google account. I look forward to fresh updates and will share this site with my Facebook group.
