LISBON Chris Archer Jersey , May 21 (Xinhua) -- The 18-day Flower Festival concluded on Sunday in Funchal, Capital of Portugal's Madeira Autonomous Region in the Atlantic Ocean, which attracted a record 77,000 visitors from both home and abroad.

The city center of Funchal decorated with various species of colorful flowers had been immersed in an air of festivity throughout the festival. Crowds of people flocked there to admire the beautiful flower carpets, flower walls and folk songs and dances.

On May 6 morning, hundreds of children, dressed in beautiful costumes and accompanied by their parent, marched in the streets with flowers in their hands towards their destination Municipal Square. The children in a long queue built the Wall of Hope with flowers to wish for world peace. More than 1,000 doves were released into the air, a symbol also for peace.

The next day's afternoon, a grand parade of flowers, which attracted most of the visitors during the festival, was held at Avenue de Mar just next to the Atlantic Ocean. Thousands of revellers, most of them girls and children, all dressed in costumes and crowns decorated with flowers, sang and danced all along the street.

A retired Dutch couple said that their son recommended Madeira after his March trip. "We choose to visit Madeira during the Flower Festival and really enjoy the happy time the festival is bringing to us," they told Xinhua.

Madeira Island is known as the Island of Flower with its sub-tropical climate best for growth of various species of flowers in the world. The Flower Festival, held annually between April and May is meant to celebrate the advent of the Spring season.

Besides the grand parade of flowers, concerts, traditional songs and dances and classic car show are also held during the festival which is dated back to 1954.

Eduardo Jusus, Secretary of Economy, Tourism and Culture of Madeira Autonomous Region government, said that tourism industry, the pillar of the economy in the Madeira Island, accounts for about a quarter of its economic output.

He said the Funchal municipal government has invested some 420,000 euros for this year's Flower Festival and the hotel occupancy rate in Madeira reached more than 90 percent. The duration of the Flower Festival will be extended for one more week next year, he added.

Jusus said that there have not been quite a lot of Chinese travellers to visit Madeira so far and he hopes that the direct flight between Lisbon and Beijing due to open in July will bring more Chinese visitors to Madeira.

How To Turn Your Internet Marketing Into A Success How To Turn Your Internet Marketing Into A Success January 18, 2013 | Author: Esteban Speegle | Posted in Marketing

Are you informing people about your business by promoting it online? It is something to which you should give serious consideration if you have not already done so. The following article is made to help provide you with internet marketing fundamentals and give you advice on how to create the best online marketing trends .

A site-wide link should appear at the bottom of each page in your website. Many designers place them on the bottom page navigation. If you want your visitors to visit your main page, this link is good to have. As people peruse your site, they will be tempted to click on these easily accessible links. This is then connecting them to the important parts of your site, like your web store or ordering page. Redirect your visitors to the page that contains the information they need by incorporating a menu with site-wide links. Every one of your links should have an easily digestible description. Always organize your menu so your site visitors have an easy time utilizing it.

You should remember all of the things your visitors do not see when building your website. The meta tag reigns supreme. These tags allow search engine spiders to classify your website easily and are one of the first elements of your website that they will crawl. Meta tags that are important to your site should be first, and some alternative tags to help drive traffic can also be added. Never overuse meta tags.

HTML tags are what people use to mark how important a specific text is. Important text is mostly written in bold in order for it to stand out. Titles and important paragraphs should have bold tagging. In addition, there should be tagging throughout the overall text and content of the website. Make sure your main title has the tag, and that you use sub-lines for each separate section of the text. This improves search engine optimization, and makes your site easier to navigate and comprehend. Your page titles should always include your target keywords to give search engines the clearest impression of your website’s focus.

Look for different ways that you can use the internet search marketing strategies to your advantage. Although your usual ways may work for you, trying new ideas can be beneficial. In many cases, a page can go from relative obscurity to the toast of the internet overnight, which is why you should always try to use trends to boost your profits. There is no definite way to tell if something will be popular on the internet. If you work on making something interesting it is sure to work out. Watch the most popular videos on sites like YouTube and Reddit. These sites can give you an idea of which concepts are most effective.
