Global C-Pop star Tia Lee joins forces with NERVO on “GOODBYE PRINCESS” remix and #EmpowerHer charitable movement

Redhill Asia

WASHINGTON, D.C., US - Media OutReach - 6 January 2023 - Tia Lee Yu Fen joined forces with award-winning DJ duo NERVO to release a remixed edition of her hugely successful single “ GOODBYE PRINCESS ” and also enlisted their support for her #EmpowerHer campaign. The global C-Pop star stole the spotlight in late 2022 with her record-breaking pre-release campaign, featuring six animated episodes, surpassing 100 million views worldwide. With the pre-release campaign set to become the most successful engagement campaign ever by a C-Pop artist, her “ GOODBYE PRINCESS ” music video separately amassed over 100 million views on YouTube in the span of 19 days. Tia Lee, with DJ NERVO has now dropped a remixed version of her hit song, and is hoping for a triple success story. In signature style, NERVO's remix of " Goodbye Princess " turns the song's tempo up and deftly weaves together multiple synth layers over Tia's vocals. Twin sisters Olivia and Miriam Nervo are all-time top-ranking DJs and have written and produced global hits for numerous A-List musicians, including Kylie Minogue, Ke$ha, The Pussycat Dolls, Afrojack, Steve Aoki and Armin Van Buuren. They also won a Grammy Award for writing “When Love Takes Over” for David Guetta and Kelly Rowland. As well as producing an incredible remix, NERVO are also backing Tia’s push to support female empowerment around the world. Tia kicked off the #EmpowerHer movement by announcing a partnership with Hong Kong charity Teen’s Key, who will be the first beneficiary of the campaign. #EmpowerHer will see up to HKD3.8 million given to four charitable partners. Olivia and Miriam expressed their excitement at being part of the #EmpowerHer movement and hope that their involvement helps spark a wave of change. “We’ve had a long history working with Asian pop stars so we jumped at the opportunity to remix Tia’s great tune! ‘Goodbye Princess’ is already such a memorable song with a powerful message about empowerment, but we wanted to make the production a bit crunchier for the real dance music fans. We hope everyone loves it as much as we do!” they said.

Cashback-bonus på casino: De beste online casino-tilbudene i Norge 2022

SuperLenny

Er det en ting spillere liker å få på online casino, så er det gode bonustilbud. Det har nesten ingenting å si hvordan selve tilbudet ser ut, så lenge man kan få litt ekstra penger å spille for. Og det er jo noe de beste online casino vet å tilby også. Derfor vil du se at veldig mange operatører gir flere bonuser enn bare cashback, selv om det er fokuset her i denne artikkelen. Her i denne artikkelen skal vi se på cashback-bonus på casino som: Ice Casino Treasure Spins Quick Slot Polestar Raptor Casino Verde Casino Need for Spin Casino De har liknende tilbud til hverandre, men det er fortsatt visse forskjeller man bør vite om og det er jo greit å vite om tilbudene i seg selv ikke minst. Andre bonuser du bør vite om Før vi går nærmere inn på de individuelle bonusene som disse operatørene tilbyr for cashback, vil vi bare minne deg på om at det også finnes andre bonuser. Det er mye å velge mellom og det finnes både for de som er storspillere og for spillere som liker å spille som en hobby. Blant annet kan du velge mellom: Velkomstbonus Innskuddsbonus Bonus uten innskudd Gratisspinn Reload Bonus VIP-bonus Diverse kampanjer og promoer VIP-bonusen er interessant for mange, fordi den ikke tilbys overalt, kun der hvor de har et VIP-program. Og da er det jo også et krav om at man har spilt en stund hos operatøren, for å tjene poeng og komme seg opp i nivå hos casinoet. Men det er kanskje spesielt velkomstbonusen som får mye av fokuset til de fleste spillere, fordi det er det første tilbudet man får etter å ha registrert seg hos en operatør. Men la oss nå se litt nærmere på hva en god cashback-bonus er og hvem du kan få mest nytte ut av. 1. Ice Casino Dette er en operatør som vet hva spillere vil ha og det er mange og store bonuser, i tillegg til et godt spillutvalg. Sånn sett har Ice Casino gjort en veldig god jobb og de tilbyr deg også døgnåpen kundeservice. Deres cashback-bonus er også en av de høyeste vi har sett på markedet så langt. Den ligger på opp til hele 12 % cashback hver eneste uke. Hvor stor prosent du får avhenger av hvilket nivå du ligger på i lojalitetsprogrammet deres, men det kan være alt fra 3 % til 12 %. Det er visse vilkår rundt bonusen du må ta en titt på, og du må være på minst nivå 10 i lojalitetsprogrammet deres før du får cashback. Fordeler: Veldig høy potensiell bonus Skjer ukentlig Ulemper: Har omsetningskrav på x5 2. Treasure Spins Dette er en operatør som vet å sette pris på cashback-bonuser. I så stor grad at de har flere forskjellige varianter, avhengig av hva du liker å spille på! Det er ikke så vanlig at man får og du får det både for individuelle spilleautomater og på live casino. Du må være logget inn for å få alle detaljene, men rent prosentmessig så ligger bonusen på 15 %. Det kan være opptil 3000 kroner eller 2500 kroner, avhengig av hvilken bonus det er snakk om. Fordeler: Hele tre ulike cashback bonuser Høye summer potensielt sett Ulemper: Kan føles litt uoversiktlig for visse 3. Quick Slot Dette er operatøren som gir deg en cashback hver eneste dag! Det ser man ikke så ofte, og det gjør det enda mer fristende å spille der sånn sett. Selve bonusen ligger på 10 % opptil maks 20 000 kroner. Det betyr at du må ha spilt for 200 000 kroner på en dag, noe som er kanskje heller lite sannsynlig for de aller fleste. Men selve tilbudet er jo der og uansett hvor mye du har tapt, så får du altså 10 % tilbake neste dag. Det er ingen omsetningskrav tilknyttet, så du kan ta ut pengene om du skulle ønske det. Fordeler: Ikke noe omsetningskrav God sum på bonusen Ulemper: Gjelder kun for spilleautomater 4. Polestar Nok en operatør som tilbyr denne bonusen kun til sine VIP-spillere. Hos Polestar behøver du kun å være på nivå 3 for å aktivere den, og da får du 5 % cashback opptil 10 000 kroner. Det høyeste nivået er nivå 5, og da får du 15 % cashback på opptil 30 000 kroner. Det finnes et omsetningskrav, men den er kun på x1 før du eventuelt kan ta ut ekte penger. Det er ikke veldig høyt. Du må spørre etter bonusen i live chat eller via e-post hver eneste gang du vil ha den. Den krediteres ikke automatisk, noe som er litt synd. Fordeler: Gode summer å få Lavt omsetningskrav Ulemper: Må være VIP for å få bonus 5. Raptor Casino Raptor Casino er et raskt online casino, som tilbyr en veldig fin cashback-bonus. Den er på 10 % hver eneste uke, og gjelder kun for spilleautomater. Det er ingen grenser, omsetningskrav eller lignende. Du spiller, taper, og får penger tilbake. Det er sånn sett en av de beste cashback bonuser i online casino i dag, og en du kommer til å like. Fordeler: Veldig enkelt å få bonus Gode vilkår Ulemper: Ikke alle spill kvalifiserer 6. Verde Casino Hos Verde Casino kan du få en cashback på minst 3 %, og du kan få høyst 20 000 kroner per cashback. Du må være en VIP hos Verde, med status på minst Leprechaun for å kvalifisere. Du kan komme helt opp til Diamond Overlord, hvor cashback er 12 %. Det er et omsetningskrav på x5 og du har kun 5 dager på deg til å oppfylle kravet. Det fine er at bonusen automatisk deles ut til deg hver eneste mandag. Det er en god bonus, og en du vil få mye nytte ut av dersom du spiller hos Verde Casino. Fordeler: Ganske høy maks bonussum Utdeles automatisk Ulemper: Har et omsetningskrav Er en del av VIP-program 7. Need for Spin Casino Operatøren som kanskje gir deg aller høyest cashback bonus blant alle disse. I hvert fall når det ikke er snakk om et VIP-program. Du kan få 15 % opptil 2000 kroner og det er kun spilleautomater som teller når det gjelder tap og for å få cashback. Det er dog ikke det beste at operatøren har et omsetningskrav på hele x30. Det er veldig høyt, og gjør det veldig vanskelig å få ekte gevinster ut av bonusen. Du må ha gjort et innskudd på minst 500 kroner i uken for å kvalifisere, og du må ta kontakt med kundeservice for å få bonusen. Fordeler: Relativt høy cashback Ulemper: Altfor høyt omsetningskrav Får ikke bonusen automatisk Hva er cashback? Det er penger du får tilbake etter at du har tømt din egen konto ved spilling. Hvor mye du får avhenger av casinoet. Hvordan fungerer det? Du må først gjøre et eget innskudd, spille innenfor rammene gitt for bonusen, og deretter kreve den etter at du ikke har mer penger å spille for. Fordelen med cashback Den største umiddelbare fordelen er at du får mer penger å spille for. Eller, du får penger tilbake, som du også kan ta ut dersom du vil det. Det lindrer eventuelle tap litt i hvert fall. Hvordan kan du kreve din cashback bonus? Dette varierer og er avhengig av hvilken operatør du spiller på. Som nevnt ovenfor så er det visse som krediteres automatisk, mens andre må du ta kontakt med kundeservice for å få. Er det trygt? Så lenge online casinoet du spiller på er trygt, så er også bonusen det. Det er ingenting mistenkelig med en slik bonus, og du kan ta den i mot uten å nøle. Konklusjon De beste online casino tilbudene i Norge har litt av hvert å by på, og som du ser er det greit å utforske alle alternativene dine. Når det gjelder disse tilbudene spesifikt må man også se på dem i sammenheng med alt det andre operatørene eventuelt tilbyr. Men det er klart, når det er et godt cashback-tilbud, så blir det litt lettere å bestemme seg for hvilket online casino man skal spille på. Ingen av dem er direkte dårlige, men kanskje noen er bedre enn andre? Contact Details SuperLenny G. Heathcote admin@superlenny.com

UNC Men’s Basketball, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and Carolina Performing Arts launch “Artists Are Athletes / Athletes Are Artists” campaign

Carolina Performing Arts

University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Men’s Basketball, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and Carolina Performing Arts have partnered to announce a new campaign: “Artists Are Athletes / Athletes Are Artists.” To launch this initiative, the organizations are releasing a video featuring renowned Ailey dancer Michael Jackson, Jr., as well as Caleb Love, the Tar Heels’ versatile junior guard. The video, set to a stirring original score, uses dramatic cinematography to showcase the power and virtuosity of the two video leads. “We launched this collaboration to demonstrate the parallels between our prestigious athletic programs and one of the most iconic dance companies in the world, coming together at our country’s oldest public university,” said Alison Friedman, the James and Susan Moeser Executive and Artistic Director of Carolina Performing Arts. “Greatness comes in all forms of artistic and athletic excellence. This runs through the fabric of Carolina, and we want to illustrate this union in a visual way.” The video makes use of two Carolina landmarks: the Dean E. Smith Center and Memorial Hall auditorium. These iconic venues, both located in Chapel Hill, make the ideal backdrop for the video’s precision sequence of graceful spins and gravity-defying leaps. “When I arrived on Carolina’s campus, I was amazed by the passion for athletics,” said Friedman, who took the helm of Carolina Performing Arts last year after two decades working in Beijing and Hong Kong, making her mark with artistic cross-cultural exchanges. “I knew we had to juxtapose the leading artists Carolina Performing Arts brings to Carolina’s stages and classrooms with the athletic prowess the University is known for to help broaden the audience and appreciation of both artistic and athletic excellence.” “Basketball and dance have much in common. Both are physically demanding requiring strength, agility and skill, and allow us to express ourselves as artists, as individuals and within teams and groups. I encourage our great fans to support Carolina Performing Arts and Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater as enthusiastically as you do our Tar Heel basketball team,” said Caleb Love who led the Tar Heels to the NCAA Championship game last season. “It’s a thrill to leap into the world of Carolina basketball through this video highlighting the skill, grace and power that athletes and dancers have in common,” said Ailey dancer Michael Jackson Jr. “This exciting collaboration will move and connect fans of basketball and the arts, sparking conversations between two sets of passionate audiences. What better way to start our national tour and fulfill Alvin Ailey's belief that ‘the dance came from the people and that it should always be delivered back to the people.’” The video will premiere at the upcoming UNC Tar Heels Men’s Basketball game vs. Notre Dame on Jan. 7, 2023, and will roll out on all partners’ social media platforms the same day.

2023 APP PICKLEBALL PARTICIPATION REPORT REVEALS 36.5 MILLION ADULT AMERICANS PLAYED PICKLEBALL IN 2022

APP

America’s fastest growing sport continues astonishing increase in participation; 2023 APP Pickleball Participation Report highlights include 14% of Americans 18+ have played pickleball in the last 12 months, creating a total national market of 36.5 million pickleball players; Participation rates look set to continue to climb with 45% of those playing pickleball at least once in the last 12 months also saying they plan to play more in the next six months than they did the last six months The Association of Pickleball Professionals (APP) – the original and pre-eminent professional, amateur and recreational pickleball organization in the USA and worldwide since 2019 - has unveiled the 2023 APP Pickleball Participation Report, a study conducted by YouGov on behalf of the APP that shows that pickleball, America’s fastest growing sport, has enjoyed even higher growth than previously thought with 14% of adult Americans (36.5 million people) playing pickleball at least once in the 12 month period August 2021 to August 2022; and 8.5 million people playing pickleball eight times or more in the same period. The rapid rise of pickleball also looks set to continue, with 45% of the 36.5 million total players saying they plan to play pickleball more often in the next six months than the previous six-month period. The 2023 APP Pickleball Participation Report was compiled by YouGov, the international market research and data analytics firm, with the research team polling a sample group of nearly 2,500 nationally representative adults ages 18+ across America. “The first of what will be our annual APP Pickleball Participation Report clearly shows that Pickleball is not only America’s fastest-growing sport, it is growing much faster than anyone really thought. Now, pickleball has to be viewed as one of America’s favorite sports,” commented Tom Webb, Chief Marketing Officer of the APP. “In 2020, a pandemic year, previous reports stated that over four million people picked up a paddle to play pickleball, with that number reportedly growing to over five million in 2021. Those numbers appear to have been conservative, but what the APP’s report shows is that the popularity of pickleball has exploded. Pickleball courts continue to be built and installed nationwide, and people from coast to coast are trying the sport for the first time, and immediately falling in love with pickleball. The APP is honored to represent the millions of people coming into the sport at all levels – from elite-level, professional athletes at the top of the game, players who are rightly gaining in status and awareness as the incredible athletes they are, to the amateur players who are playing such an important role in the growth of the APP and the sport overall, right through to the millions of recreational players who find so much enjoyment from a sport they can pick up easily, which costs very little to play, and which rewards its participants from the first time they play.” “I fell in love with pickleball the very first time I played, and now I have the honor of being able to compete across America, and internationally, in a sport that is so quickly becoming part of our culture,” added Megan Fudge DeHeart, professional pickleball player. “As the sport grows, so does the recognition of what it takes to be a pro, and that’s hugely rewarding. The number of fans at our events increases with almost every competition, and now we know just how big the sport is, that will only continue to increase. I’m excited for the future of our sport – for the players today, for those who will continue to flock to pickleball, and for my children who also love the sport, and have a lifetime of playing pickleball ahead of them.” About the APP Founded in 2019, the Association of Pickleball Professionals (APP) elevates the sport of pickleball by providing elite platforms for the best players in the world, right through to the millions of people picking up a paddle for the first time. Serving professional pickleball players, senior professionals, amateurs and recreational players in the fastest growing sport in the USA, the APP is the first and only tour officially sanctioned by USA Pickleball. The 2023 APP Tour slate has 16 tournament stops planned, in addition to International and Collegiate Series events. The APP also prides itself on developing the next generation of champions through its Next Gen Series and other youth initiatives.

How Successful Collaborations Propelled Samsara Luggage Into The Spotlight

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga The travel industry is still working on rebounding after travel restrictions, airline layoffs, and overall hesitancy to travel became the norm during the pandemic. As travel resumed in the past year, travelers experienced over a million lost bags in the U.S. between January and June. The percentage of lost bags, when compared to 2019, is 30% more. It's clear that consumers are eager to explore again but there is a growing concern among flyers who want to ensure their luggage is safe. Samsara Luggage Inc pioneered a solution to a problem plaguing travelers globally. Awarded a special mention in TIME’s Best Inventions of 2022 by TIME, Samsara Luggage has designed a line of suitcases with a removable Apple AirTag embedded. The suitcase can be tracked by the Find My app on the iPhone. If a bag gets lost or stolen, Samsara’s technology allows customers to always find their bag. The company almost immediately started gaining the attention of huge brand names like T-Mobile, which saw the value of Samsara’s winning idea and wanted to collaborate on co-branded products. Learn more here: Samsara Luggage Is Grabbing The Attention Of Established Giants, Prompting Fun And Unique Partnerships T-Mobile collaborated with Samsara Luggage to create a sleek, magenta suitcase called the Un-carrier On.

Perfect for working on the go, the luggage has a flat-top work surface that can double as a leg or footrest. And of course, the Un-carrier On includes Samsara’s AirTag solution so you never lose your luggage again. The unique partnership was a successful endeavor of two companies working together for the shared goal of improving the travel experience through innovation, connectivity, and convenience. Prior to the Un-Carrier launch, Samsara Luggage made its debut in select Tommy Bahama retail stores around the country. Tommy Bahama is at the forefront of the travel industry with year-round resort wear and travel accessories.

FREELANCER.COM

Freelancer.com (ASX: FLN) (OTCQX: FLNCF), the world’s largest freelancing and crowdsourcing marketplace by number of users and jobs posted, today released its quarterly Fast 50 Index for Q4 2022. The index, which is based on data from 372,000 jobs posted on Freelancer.com between October 1 to December 31st 2022, ranks programming, report writing, and research related jobs among the fastest growing skills on the platform. At the end of the year, many businesses and companies often rely on freelancers to assist with high volume tasks. According to the Q4 data, the leading tasks for the end of 2022 were Report Writing, Research and Technical Writing. These job types were trending as employers were hiring freelancers to support them with compiling 2022 retrospective reports, creating strategic plans for 2023, and writing business reports. Research jobs also spiked as many entrepreneurs aim to start businesses in the new year, increasing the number of market research and business plan projects posted to the platform. Report Writing (up 59.5%, from 3,374 to 5,384) takes the number one spot in the index when ranking the percentage growth of more than 2,000 skills available on Freelancer.com. Coming in a close second is the skill Matlab and Mathematica (up 56.4%, from 1,250 to 1,955), which are separate programming languages used by engineers and scientists to analyze data. Research jobs and Research Writing rank as the third and fifth fastest growing skills, up by 36.3% (from 3,905 to 5,325) and 32.1% (from 7,527 to 9,944), respectively. Top 5 Fast Growing Skills for Q4 2022: Report Writing - up 59.5% Matlab and Mathematica - up 56.4% Research - up 36.3% Web Scraping - up 32.6% Research Writing - up 32.1% A sudden increase in projects for tech and IT related skills on Freelancer is a continuation of the trends observed in Freelancer’s Fast 50 for Q2 2022 and Fast 50 for Q3 2022 - where freelance jobs for software, app and website developers surged as a result of global tech layoffs. In Q4 2022, the data reveals the new trend is employers hiring for programming jobs, as skills specific to programming dominated the rankings. Web Scraping, often used for lead generation and price monitoring, came in as the fourth fastest growing skill, increasing by 32.6% (from 3,891 to 5,162). C Programming and C++ Programming, general-purpose programming and coding languages used to develop systems and applications, increased by 28.9% (from 4,974 to 6,415) and 23.7% (from 4,775 to 5,907), respectively. Jobs requiring skills in Python, a high-level, general-purpose programming language, also grew by 20.7% (from 10,712 to 12,931). Adding to the growth of engineering-related programming Matlab and Mathematica, projects seeking skills in Engineering also increased in Q4 2022 with Electrical Engineering jobs growing by 25.6% (from 2,305 to 2,897) and Mechanical Engineering jobs increasing by 17.3% (from 1,544 to 1,812). “The latest index truly demonstrates the breadth of skills and jobs available on our platform. We have employers turning to freelancers for content jobs, such as writing and research projects, all the way to highly complex jobs like mathematics, programming and engineering. The trend that we continue to see is the surge in tech-related projects as a result of global tech layoffs,” said Matt Barrie, Chief Executive at Freelancer.com. While programming specific skills grew in Q4, other tech-related skills ranked as some of the fastest falling jobs of the quarter. CSS3, an advanced language used to style web pages, ranked as the fastest falling skill and was down by 67.8% (from 1,227 to 395) in Q4 2022. A similar skill for web page development called AJAX also decreased by 51.8% this quarter (from 1,763 to 849) after ranking as the second fastest growing skill in Q3 2022. As both of these website development skills decreased, jobs relating to WordPress and general-purpose scripting language used in web development called PHP increased significantly. Projects for WordPress increased by 12.8% (from 17,275 to 19,499), while projects for PHP increased by 8.1% (from 44,333 to 47,937). PHP also ranks as the second most in-demand skill on Freelancer.com in Q4 2022. Top 5 Fast Falling Skills for Q4 2022: CSS3 - down 67.8% Angular - down 58.3% API Integration - down 55.3% Data Extraction - down 53.2% Blog Writing - down 53% Fast 50 Q4 2022 Trends & Analysis Demand shifts from niche IT skills in Q3 to Programming in Q4 While technical skills have always been sought out on the Freelancer platform, global layoffs are causing increases in niche tech skills and unprecedented fluctuations in demand. In the previous quarter, Freelancer uncovered the trend of employers turning to the platform to hire highly skilled IT and tech specialists to support following mass tech layoffs. Tech-related skills made up 40% of the in Q3 2022, with Android App Development, AJAX and API ranking as the three fastest growing skills. A similar trend was also observed in Freelancer’s Fast 50 for Q2 2022 as Software Development ranked as the quarter’s fastest growing skill, up 47% compared to the previous quarter. This quarter, the demand for tech skills continues with employers hiring Programming related skills. Matlab and Mathematica, Web Scraping, C Programming and Python experienced the highest percentage growth for programming skills in this quarter’s index. Other increases include C# Programming up by 11.2% (from 5,986 to 6,657), JavaScript up by 9% (from 17,439 to 19,010) and PHP up by 8.1% (from 44,333 to 47,937). On the other hand, application development saw a decrease in demand in Q4 2022. Jobs requiring skills in Angular, a platform for building mobile and web applications, decreased by 58.3% (from 1,459 to 608). Projects seeking App Developers dropped by 52.2% (from 1,196 to 571), while projects for Android App Development fell by 49.4% (from 1,948 to 984). “Mass layoffs in tech are causing ripple effects as companies scramble to plug skills gaps within their organisations. We’re observing this in waves. As the tech giants lay off staff, we’re seeing employers lean on freelancers for support with tech-related skills. Last quarter, web and app development was in-demand, but this demand has now shifted to programming with increases across the board for many programming language jobs. In 2023, we can expect to see more demand for tech related skills on Freelancer as layoffs continue and employers look to hire on-demand freelancers,” said Barrie. Generative AI leads to spike in Machine Learning Jobs The second half of 2022 saw significant leaps in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Public access to powerful generative AI tools - such as Stable Diffusion, Dall-E, OpenAI’s GPT-3 and ChatGPT - which are now changing the way designers design and writers write. This is now bleeding into other business areas. Since the release of Chat GPT on November 30th 2022, there have been 26 jobs posted on Freelancer in December that aim to harness the power of generative AI. Many of these projects are seeking AI and Machine Learning experts to help create chatbots, assemble GPT-3 and Stable Diffusion workflows when transcribing video, and integrating Chat GPT-3 to websites. As a reaction to these new technologies, there has been an increase in Machine Learning jobs in Q4 - up by 26.6% (from 2,215 to 2,809). Projects for Machine Learning, AI and Deep Learning are only expected to increase as more businesses become aware of these tools and their potential to integrate them across their business. “There has been an absolutely transformational step that has happened in the last few months with Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Deep Learning. Any creative task man can do, AI can or will be able to do better. Leaps in AI will affect every facet of business. Not just in years, but potentially within months. Companies, businesses and startups are taking notice and exploring ways of harnessing these new tools,” said Barrie. Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) jobs continue surge, Search Engine Marketing (SEM) bounce back from Q3 slump The first expense most companies cut in a downturn is paid advertising. In Q3, Freelancer observed a shift in advertising behavior as employers turned away from paid advertising or SEM projects and began hiring freelancers for more traditional marketing or SEO projects. In this quarter, we’re seeing these companies turn back to SEM and Google Adwords, as well as continue their efforts to improve their SEO. Jobs for Google Adwords increased by 21.4% (from 2,221 to 2,697), while Web Search jobs grew by 15.8% (from 4,111 to 4,763) and SEM-related projects increased by 12.9% (from 1,597 to 1,804). For freelancers, projects relating to SEM are some of the highest paying job types on the platform. On average, Search Engine Marketing jobs pay US$2,231 per project. SEO jobs also pay relatively high on the platform with an average of US$1,704 per project. The areas that did see a noticeable decrease in jobs posted in Q4 2022 compared to Q3 were Creative Design (down by 48.2%, from 1,309 to 677), Content Creation (down by 41.9%, from 1,181 to 686) and Advertisement Design (down by 38.6%, from 1,754 to 1,077). 2022 Fast 50 Reports track major crash in Bitcoin, NFT and Ethereum Each quarterly edition of the Fast 50 Index for 2022 has tracked the rapid rise and fall of freelance crypto and NFT related jobs. At the beginning of the year, the Q1 2022 saw projects for NFTs and NFT-related skills, such as Caricature & Cartoon Design, rank as the fastest growing skills on the platform growing by 30% compared to the previous quarter. During this same period, jobs for Bitcoin were down heavily by 31.1% and jobs for Ethereum began to fall by 23.9%. Q2 2022 saw projects for NFTs shift from the fastest growing jobs on the platform to the fastest falling, with a percentage decrease of 48.9% compared to the previous quarter. Jobs for Bitcoin also fell by 48%, while Ethereum and Blockchain projects fell by 33.9% and 32.9% respectively. Smart Contracts, NFT and Ethereum were amongst the fastest falling in Q3 2022, with most project numbers being cut in half during the quarter. Solidity, high-level language for implementing smart contracts, and Smart Contracts were the top fastest fallers, decreasing by 56.8% and 49.6% respectively.
