Through the eyes of an intern...

Nestled in the quiet suburbs of Woodbridge, Ontario is the Kortright Centre for Conservation. This 325 hectare land is home to several hiking trails, a large welcome centre, and one of the best sustainable education programs in the province. It is also home to an incredible ecosystem that many animals, birds, and insects call home. With close to 135,000 annual visitors, the Kortright Center serves a variety of environmental and community needs on a daily basis. Their welcome centre and accompanying grounds even host weddings and large family functions. If tall trees seem like a  good backdrop for your special occasion, then this is definitely the place for you! What's even better is that the entrance fees are reasonably priced, and the welcome centre is host to a wide range of activities for children and the entire family. I also love how the trails engage a wide range of skill levels, allowing anyone to explore the beauty of nature at their own pace. You can pack a lunch and have a picnic, or eat at the welcome centre. At the Kortright Centre for Conversation, nature is right in your backyard!

    You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually something which I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me. I am looking forward for your
    next post, I'll try to get the hang of it!

    The country block is one of our most powerful, yet most underutilized blocklisting feature we offer.
    MX Guarddog makes it easy to block email originating from any country.
    Lets take a look at a couple of situations where this powerful blocklisting feature can be used.

    Imagine Charles, he is a plumber working in Ackley, Iowa - a population of
    only 1,589 people! He gets his plumbing supplies from the
    next town over, his family lives within the state and he banks with a local bank
    in his town. Essentially he is a local guy with no international exposure.
    Since all his email originates within the USA he can easily block email from
    China, India and Zimbabwe. If an email comes from these places it is
    going to be spam. In fact, Charles can essentially block
    all countries except the USA and greatly reduce the risk
    of any spam slipping past MX Guarddog into his mailbox.
    Lars is a computer programmer living and working in Berlin Germany, his sister lives in Brazil.


    This can be as simple as clicking on a link, downloading something from your website or making a purchase.
    Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) is the process maximizing the
    percentage of recipients who take a desired action in your emails or
    on your website. Cookies are small files that are stored by
    your browser which contain information that is specific
    to a user. Cookies are used to help webpages tailor experiences directly to a visitor, such as
    remembering your name or login information.
    Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) is the cost to acquire a new customer.
    CPA is calculated by dividing the total spend by the number of new
    customers acquired. For example: if a $1,000 advertising campaign generated
    5 new customers, the CPA would be $200. Cost Per Click (CPC) is
    the amount paid for each click on your link to visit your website or a particular landing page.
    CPC is calculated by dividing the total cost by
    the number of clicks.

    A study by Harvard Business Review found that 56% of customers complain about poor follow-up.
    While 48% of customers that experience a poor follow-up will go on to tell at least 10 people or more about
    their bad experience. Something as simple as a follow-up ruins the entire customer experience,
    which, according to research by Walker2020, is one of
    top factors for doing business with a company. So, to avoid
    customers turning their backs on you, you need to follow up.
    The best way to follow up? There are a wide range of ways you can follow up with your customers.

    You can do it by phone, a letter, or even in person, but
    the most effective way to follow up is by email. Email is
    quick to send, you can easily track comments and feedback, and best of all,
    it’s scalable. Whether you follow up with a
    select handful of clients, or have thousands of customers to contact, you can do it all by simply using good
    old fashioned email.

    Break up sections of content by adding a holiday GIF into the body of
    your email. It’ll keep your readers moving down the
    page toward your call-to-action button. Want your subscribers to read your entire message
    first? Place a holiday GIF after the call-to-action button. 1.
    Don’t overdo it: Use only one GIF per email. 2. Only use
    a GIF if it’ll help your email perform better.
    Don’t distract from the main message. 3. Consider removing
    all other images besides your GIF so that subscribers aren’t overwhelmed with visuals.

    4. Hyperlink your GIF to the landing page you’d like people to visit.
    5. Always test your emails. Most email clients will display GIFs, but there are
    a some exceptions. In these situations, the GIFs will display as
    static images. 7. Your GIF should be relevant to the rest of the content in your email.
    Make sure it supplements your subject line, call to action, and message text.
    8. No matter what GIF you use, make your call
    to action loud and clear. 9. Test a GIF in different
    locations within your email to see where it performs best.

    Email hijacking. This is a type of MiTM attack where cybercriminals
    gain control of email accounts of banks and other financial
    institutions to monitor any transactions that users conduct.
    Cybercriminals may even spoof the bank's email address
    and send instructions to customers that lead them to unknowingly transfer their money
    to the cybercriminals. Wi-Fi eavesdropping. This MiTM attack is one of the many risk factors posed by public Wi-Fi.

    During this attack, public Wi-Fi users get tricked into connecting to
    malicious Wi-Fi networks and hotspots. Cybercriminals accomplish this by
    setting up Wi-Fi connections with names that resemble nearby businesses.
    Session hijacking. Also known as stealing browser cookies, this malicious practice takes place when cybercriminals steal personal
    data and passwords stored inside the cookies
    of a user's browsing session. Sometimes, cybercriminals can gain endless access
    to users' saved resources. For example, they might
    steal users' confidential data and identities, purchase
    items or steal money from their bank accounts. Cache poisoning.
    Also known as Address Resolution Protocol, or ARP cache poisoning,
    this popular modern-day MiTM attack enables cybercriminals who are on the
    same subnet as the victims to eavesdrop on all traffic being routed
    between them.
