My Japanese friend online said it means important and in some translating
sites, I found it means focusing or put emphasis in. They're all similar but
what does に力を入 actually stand for, specifically? Because I can't find any
translation for it. It's not actually a word, is it?

question
meaning
What does this に力を入れていますmean? In what context do you use this?
* ～に: "in/into ～"
  * 力【ちから】: "power", "energy", "effort"
  * を: direct object marker
  * 入れて: te-form of 入れる ("put in")
  * います: progressive marker

So ～に力を入れています means "[I am / We are] putting energy/effort in ～". Depending on
the context, it can mean "[I/We] consider ～ important", but it's not a literal
translation.
