The Best Practices for Email Attachment SizeIn Feburary 2016 05,
In Feburary 2016 05,
There are many free email accounts provided by companies with a large Internet presence. These free email accounts include Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail and Gmail. Each free account limits the total attachment size for every email. Hotmail allows a maximum of 10MB to be attached to every email message. Yahoo allows 20MB and Gmail allows 25MB. Attachment sizes should work within each mail system's guidelines. Failure to do so will result in emails not being sent.
Encoding of Attachments
Free email accounts go through a process of encoding. This means that adjustments are made to the files so that other mail systems can read them. The result is adds an additional 33 percent to the original size of the files. Attachment limits provided by free email accounts also include the encoding.Example:
Yahoo Attachment Limit: 20MB
Attachment Size Before Coding on Yahoo: 15MB
Attachment Size After Coding: 20MBIn the above example, Yahoo limits attachments to a total size of 20MB. A file that is 15MB, after coding, is 20MB. In the case of Yahoo accounts, 15MB is the actual attachment limit.
Attachment Limits on Self-Hosting Accounts
Website owners that have accounts with Internet hosting companies also have access to email accounts. These email accounts can be accessed within the cpanel. The cpanel is also known as the control panel and all website additions and adjustments can be made from there.Email accounts through self-hosting companies also have limits on attachments. The size limit varies with each company. Go Daddy has a total attachment limit of 20MB per email, Bluehost has 10MB and Dreamhost has a limit of 40MB.
Understanding Receiving Limits
Even though some mail systems can send larger attachments than others, it isn’t the only factor that limits attachment size. Attachment limits depends on how much the recipient can receive. Example:
Gmail send limit: 25MB
Gmail receive limit: 25MB
Hotmail send limit: 10MB
Hotmail receive limit: 10MBIn the above example, a Gmail account sending to a Hotmail account cannot have an attachment size larger than 10MB. Even though a Gmail account can send 25MB, the email is limited by the recipient’s ability to receive attachments. On many mail systems, the receiving limit corresponds to the sending limit.In the above example, a Gmail account could send 25MB in some situations. This depends on the recipient also having a Gmail account or being able to receive 25MB.
Splitting Larger Files
Some files have sizes that exceed what is allowed by a mail system. One way to get around this is by using a program that will split the file (see Resources). The program takes a large file and splits it into several, smaller sizes. This allows a person to send a large file in smaller portions and to attach it on several emails. The person receiving the files would then re-merge the split files. Before the recipient receives a split file, they need to be informed before hand. If the recipient doesn't have the same file splitting software, they won't be able merge the files back together. Alternatively, the sender can use a compression or zipping program to shrink the file size and send it as an attachment. The recipient would then need to expand the attachment or zipped file.

How to Make Garden Soil Weed FreeIn Feburary 2016 04,
In Feburary 2016 04,
Pull up any weeds in the area where you want to plant your garden. Pull them up by the roots. Do not cut the weeds, as this will just make them grow faster and will not eliminate them from your garden plot.
Rototill your garden plot to turn the soil and dig up any roots that may still be there. Remove any of the roots or runners that you may turn over in the soil to keep them from taking root and growing again. Rototill both horizontally and vertically in your garden to dig up as many of the roots as you can.
Spray some weed killer on your garden plot the year before you want to plant anything to help reduce the reproduction of weeds. Read the directions on the bottle of weed killer carefully before you buy it, as some chemicals are so potent that you should not plant food in that soil for more than a year. Use an all-natural product for best results in a vegetable garden.
Spread a 2-inch-thick layer of mulch over your entire garden plot to help prevent weed growth. Add nutrients to your soil by using dead leaves for mulch if you are preparing your garden plot in the fall for spring planting.
Cover the garden plot area with thick, black plastic to keep any new weed seeds from getting into your garden plot. Use rocks or some other heavy objects to hold the plastic down.
Till the soil again before planting in the spring to turn any mulch that has not completely broken down into the soil. Plant your seeds. Mulch around the plants as soon as you see the seedling emerging to keep weeds from growing around your plants.
Place pieces of cardboard along the pathways of your garden to prevent weeds from growing there and also to retain some of the moisture from rain and watering.

How to Advertise Free in Thousands of Newspapers and MagazinesIn Feburary 2016 03,
In Feburary 2016 03,
Research which trade magazines and newspapers share customer demographics similar to your company's. A simple Internet search typically turns up hundreds of publications. For example, the search 'magazines: vintage recipes' returns more than 2 million results. Use the same method for finding print newspapers.
Check submission guidelines to see how each newspaper or magazine accepts material from the public. You may need to send a query letter to some magazine publishers, while others will accept unsolicited material. Follow the guidelines exactly to increase your chance of acceptance.
Read each magazine's table of contents for the past two years to make sure the publications have not recently published articles similar to yours. Additionally, for both newspapers and magazines, read a few articles from the publications your target audience reads, to learn the publications' writing styles and ideal article length.
Find the editor's name and email address for each publication you're submitting a press release or article to. Newspapers typically print this information on page 2; magazines may print it anywhere within the first few pages or even near the end of the publication. Address your email or correspondence using the editor's full name and title. Since you are contacting a large number of publications, use the 'BCC' (blind carbon copy) option in your email program to streamline this process; BCC also prevents your correspondence from looking like a mass email, even if you simultaneously sent it to multiple recipients. Alternately, you could hire an online public relations firm to send your press release to thousands of publishers at once. However, if you want completely free advertising, use the more time-consuming method of researching and sending the information yourself.
Write a press release about your product or service, keeping the tone of the piece informative and intriguing rather than obviously promotional. State how your company benefits the community or the customer. A well-written 'human interest' press release that follows submission guidelines, as well as the writing style of the particular newspaper or magazine, has a better chance of being published than a sales flyer. Additionally, a time-sensitive piece can more successfully get a newspaper editor's attention, while a magazine editor may need a longer lead time. Create several versions of the press release to appeal to differing submission criteria. The time-sensitive press release could relate to your participation in an upcoming event, while a magazine submission may explain unusual or interesting aspects of your business.
