Links- Important Tool for WebPages


Every page which is virtually present wants more & more readers/traffic to visit the page. Usually if the webpage appears in the initial pages in the search results of a search engine, more readers/visitors/traffic it will have. To reach the initial pages of the results the technique a website follow is known as Search Engine Optimization (SEO).


"Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume and quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via "natural" ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results for targeted keywords." (Source:www.wikipedia.org)

To appear in the initial pages or earlier in the search result of the search engine, a page has to have higher "PageRank" (PR). Page Rank determines the page value on the web. It contains a numeric value which influences the importance of the webpage. One of the techniques to increase Page Rank is "Website Linking" which is usually used in regards to SEO. The more links or webpages added to the site, the higher the page rank will be. Each new page linked to the site will add value to the site on the web. But Google does not consider all the links. It filters out the links from link farms. Therefore, care should be taken that a webpage is not creating Link Farm.

"Link Farm:On the World Wide Web, a link farm is any group of web sites that all hyperlink to every other page in the group. Although some link farms can be created by hand, most are created through automated programs and services. A link farm is a form of spamming the index of a search engine (sometimes called spamdexing or spamexing). Other link exchange systems are designed to allow individual websites to selectively exchange links with other relevant websites and are not considered a form of spamdexing." (Source:www.wikipedia.org)

Search engines have identified that reciprocal links influence the search results & such pages are filtered by search engines. Therefore, care should be taken while linking to other sites. Links should be created in such a way where these links are natural to the eyes of the search engines and help in increasing the pagerank. Reciprocal links exchange (only) to will lead to create the page of Link Farm.

Apart from reciprocal link exchange, Webring is another way to linking which is more natural link exchanges in the eyes of search engines. E.g. A (Links to) B (Links to) C (Links to) D (Links to) E (Links to) A. So I can reach the Website E if i have entered the website A. Another linking tool is One Way Linking (Inbound/Incoming Links) which means there are no reciprocal links (No exchange of links). Links can be added to the webpage which can be useful to the readers of your blog or which can provide relevant information with regards to the blog. Link baiting is also a technique where links can be added to the posts or content of the website which is related to the post/content & readers may be interested to read it through.
So try out these linking methods & let me know if it works.

New to Blogging.....

Hi there,
I started blogging some months ago. Blogging gave me a way to express myself. Be it anything. Whenever something forced me to think on it, I wrote about it, be it anything and as I wanted to share it with the worlds so started writing on my blog. There is a long way to go though. In this post of mine I just thought to share my experience with blogging. I hope some points you may enjoy and some may help you if in case you are a new blogger or thinking of getting into it. Let’s begin with my small journey to the world of blogging.

When I started blogging I hardly had an idea about it. Numbers of questions were lingering on my mind like

What to write in my blog?
How to start?
How can I change look of my blog?
How a blogger get so much of content to write?
How to market my blog?
How to get more readers?
Who will read my blog?
What if some other blogger has already written what I want to write?
Will others appreciate my content? What if they don’t?
What if my content is not new and readers are already aware of it?
Will my blog appear nowhere in the crowd of other bloggers?
Who will help me?
Will I able to earn money through my blog? And how?
And the list is long.

But I just thought let’s start with it. Because I realized that to learn it I will have to get into it. And still there are number of things I need to learn. Well, I didn’t give up and started researching. I had already made a blog and I used to keep changing it as whenever I came across something new (I still do that). But content was again something I had to work on. I visited number of other blogs. On those blogs I saw various links of various websites/blogs. Now then I started visiting all those websites to know the purpose they exist and how a blogger can use it. Yes, visiting other blogs gives you tremendous ideas on how you should start a blog. Hence, spending some time on other blogs will help you a lot in making you decide what you should start with and how. And what you should do in the initial stage of making a blog. You can make blog related to one topic or may add various topics (general). But you will have to keep updating it everyday (or as per your convenience but regularly and often) so that readers want to return to your web page the next day to see what new you have to share.

Now the other thing I feel important is how the blog looks. You can make it look interesting so that visitors’ atleast will be anxious to see what is there. Being new to blogging I used one of the best templates available with blogger.com, but when I visited other blogs I realized that I could also make it look different. There I started my search for new blog templates. And I came across number of sites and blogs who have huge collection of beautiful tamplates. So I chose one of them I like the most and now I see the difference. Your template & layout definitely describe you to some extent. In one of earlier posts I have also added some of the links of various websites/blogs where you can download your favorite template for free.

Now I had to decide what to write. I was really circumspect about what I was going to write. Visiting other blogs put me in the dilemma about my content. Bu ti had to start so I went ahead with that circumspection I started posting. The content quality matters a lot and the interest of the visitors’. If the article you have posted is of readers’ interest, they will definitely leave a comment. Comments encourage you. Don’t they? Now I am so much into my blog that some or other things going on my mind and I want to write about it on my blog as soon as possible. You just have to be patient and make quality blog with soothing looks and interesting content.

When I felt that my blog was ready to be shared with the world, now I was a bit fearsome on how to ask people to read my blog and give their comments or suggestions. Joining communities like blogcatalog, mybloglog, technorati etc. helped me in getting to know other bloggers. As per my experience other bloggers will be interested in visiting your site. Therefore, getting in touch with other bloggers is pretty important in initial stage. I also made some blogger friends who visit and analyze my blog and keep suggesting necessary changes to be made. It’s a great help and I really appreciate they take out their precious time to visit my blog and writing to me. Thank you all. Bloggers are ready to exchange links. And as and when you are communicating with other blogger mates, you will get to know new things to be done.

As I said patience and efforts. You will start enjoying blogging. Trust me it is the one best way to learn, to share, to reach out to the world, to express yourself and when you start enjoying blogging you will do the best. What you will learn the best when you will get into it. And a long way to go.....
Enjoy!!!!
Happy blogging….

Links to Blog Templates Sites




When I started with blogging there were number of things I wasn't aware of but learnt steadily when I started devoting time to blogging. One of the important things I am still fond of when it comes to virtual presence is the looks of one's blog. The attractive looks would definitely attract readers more & persuade to stay on the web page for sometime. I had a tough time to understand it. But I would definitely like beginners not to waste time as I did. The very important thing I am talking about is Blog Template. If being a new blogger you are struggling to find out new looks for your web page then let me mention it that there are thousands of websites available which are providing services where you can download template for your blog for free. So now research on it and find out a suitable template for your blog which is going to be more attractive than the basic templates what blogger.com provides. Before you start posting prepare your blog in such a manner where you will not need to do much of changes later. I had made number of posts on my blog & later I realized that there is no limitation of making your blog with limited templates. So I downloaded some of them & changed my blog's look. But I had to face one problem – while changing template all the widgets (text, ads, communities, blog roll, etc.) & HTML changes were deleted & I had to struggle a lot working on it. Apart from this there were number of templates which were not working on my blog. There are number of templates even with 2, 3 and 4 columns you can choose one as per your requirement. You can choose templates which is related to your blog's theme. Number of beautiful color combination. Now it is revealed that we can make our web page with our own style but what we need to do is a little research. While searching for your choice of template you may come across templates which may not work on the blog.

Therefore, I just thought to add some links of various websites to this post of mine which provide beautiful templates. Being the user of blogger.com, most of these websites have specialized templates for blogeer.com users. Which I had used & tried on my blog & I was fortunately successful with most of them. But still new users can just log on to these websites & find out the template of your style & create a beautiful blog without any restriction on looks & templates.

What is Love???


I am coming across number of articles on various blogs talking about love & relationship. Different individual have different opinion about it. Some say people are crazy & waste their time, some say it is a feeling, some says this feeling is hurting, some it is nothing but physical attraction, some say it is better to love and other say it is better to be loved & so on. But could we actually understand what is love? And how one can feel when he/she is in love? What does it mean when we say that we are in a relationship where we are in love with each other?

I have number of stories with me. These are real stories. One of my friends she was in love with this guy from last 3 years but her parents were against their nuptial & decided to fix her nuptial with someone they felt was suitable for her. Now when she met this guy with whom she is supposed to get married, after sometime she felt that she has feelings for him as he gives her all emotional support & everything she was looking for (this happened only in some months time). Now what happened to earlier relationship of 3 years? What happened to that love? I felt this was Strange. Simple, feelings changed or priority changed. She was thinking practically & realized that those 3 years both of them were in dream world & thought that everything may go so easy. And another strange thing now she has started feeling what she does not like in her fiance. I am by no chance blaming her because I know her pretty well & after understanding the situation I am with her in her decision of going for someone else. Which is the right love or feeling in this case?

Another example, my friend she was going around with her boyfriend since quite a long time. After an year or so the guy had to go to out of for his higher studies. Everything was fine till the time she came to know that he is involved with someone else in the other countries. They broke up. After some months this guy calls her & says that he is coming back to India & wants to be with her again. Is this Love?

Yet another strange story, my friend she started feeling for one guy (ofcourse she thought that she was in love with him). Earlier when they had initially met, they used to fight & used to stay away from eachother. But after some time they realized that they can not see eachother with some one else. There they started with their relationship. Strange thing in this relationship was that the guy was already had a girlfriend & girl knew about his girlfriend. but they carried on. And ultimately guy got engaged to his first girlfriend, left this girl in pain & the pathetic situation was when he asked her to be him (in an extra marital affair forever). His words were so what if I'm getting married to someone else I still love you & want to be with you. Don't know from where he got this bravery. But finally girl decided to move on & left him. When was love in this case & who was actually in love?

After talking about others I will tell my story, this happened 5 years ago when I was pretty young, I fell for a guy. He is son of my father's closest friend. We met in a party. I liked him instantly. Steadily we became good friends & gradually we started feeling for eachother. Every thing was going smooth for sometime. We were happy together. All of a sudden he started feeling that I am not the one for him & left. Though even today if I think about the time we were together, I feel happy. But I do regret he is no more with me. It has been 5 years we broke up but after he left I never felt for anyone else so strong. Was it Love?

I have been seeing people in love. They fight, they hang out together, they try hard to spend as much time as they can with each other, they buy gifts for each other, they show their care etc. but after sometime everything gets over. Why? Why this happens when you say that you are in love with each other.
Is love so weak that it does not take time for people to over come it & forget somebody you were so close to? And at that point of time love is over? Then what is this feeling all about?

Ofcourse it is everyone's own choice how they explain this one word or feeling. I feel this could be anything, e.g. when you like someone extremely you may tell yourself that you are in love. E.g. when people say that they are in love with someone but they don't know them personally. May be they have been just coming across them everyday in college or at their work places and so on. They see them in front of them & feel that how much they are in love. But how they can say that they are in love with someone they have never spoken to. Life is totally different when two people love eachother but sometimes they also go away from eachother after sometime. Marriages get over & couples break up.

Feelings change. Too many expectations being in relationship is quite obvious but they can ruin a relation too. But what do we call Love then? I have always failed to understand that. All I have experienced is hurt, sorrow & tears if ever I was in love. I am saying this because now I don't know what I had been through.Was it love or an illusion where I thought I was in love. May be people who were in love & were lucky enough to be together for their entire life can explain. If anyone can expalain me, please do because I am failing to understand when I will come to know that I am in love. Please share your experiences & suggestions too.

Pachmarhi - Truly Auspicious Place

Being daughter of an Army personnel, I was fortunate enough to travel number of places where my father got transferred. Out of them one of my favorite places is Pachmarhi where I spent most of my years of childhood. I still can not forget the feel of the place. One of the most exotic places I have ever traveled. A hill station located in the Satpura Ranges in Madhya Pradesh.
The beauty of the place lies in the fact that the place is blessed with verdant and innocent elegance and which is propitiously unspoiled. It is an auspicious and serene place where time stand vividly still. It is far away from concrete jungle which is unfortunately has become an inextricable part of everyone’s life where natural appearance is almost nil. I personally feel good about the fact that Pachmarhi fortunately could escape from becoming one. The place hasn’t lost it’s simplicity and sanctity at all. I hope it remains the same.

Every place you visit you unfold the spectacular and glamorous sights which are full of radiance. Various work of man and magnificent nature complement the place - pulsating indeed. Years ago, Pachmarhi was the cantonment of the British. Fascinating monuments and Churches define it in an artistic way which were built more than 100 years ago.
I sincerely feel that the beauty of Pachmarhi is beyond words. Red sand stone cliffs, meadows, green washed mountains, valleys filled flowers, red roofed houses which were built decades ago, chirping of birds, cozy weather, clear streams, cascades and waterfalls, safe wildlife, place full of adventure, dense forests, spectacular sunsets, 24 hours blowing breeze, clear sky and twinkling stars, fast moving light clouds, misty mornings, beauty in every stone, pristine vivifying sights, hills, temples, simplicity of people….in short richness of beauty (and yes place is full of Monkeys). Unavoidable indeed and auspicious in every manner. Nature at it’s best. Pachmarhi attracts not only tourists but pilgrims too. Most of the places and temples are devoted and named after Lord Shiva. Number of stories are associated with all thes places which are quite interesting. The interesting journey starts way before you reach Pachmarhi. You don’t reach Pachmarhi directly. The name of the station id Pipariya where you have to reach and then journey continues to Pachmarhi by road. This is again a journey where you experience is out of the world. roads on hills surrounded by jungles. You get to see immense greenery. Nature lovers can’t miss it.

The best time to visit Pachmarhi is through out the year but avois rainy season. It is abundant.
Sites to Visit
- Satpura National Park
- Catholic Church
- Christ Church
- Priyadarshini Point
- Apsara Vihar
- Rajat Pratap
- Raj Giri

So next time you plan to travel a new place…Go to Pachmarhi….Trust me it is worth it!!!!

Recently Broken Up with Your Partner - Do's & Don'ts


If you have recently broken up with your partner, sometimes you may feel desperate & anxious to win them back. I have seen & observed some people around me behaving with a desperation with the expectation that their ex may come back to them. But some reactions may irritate one's ex-partner.
There are certain things which one should not do after break up which are as follows -
  • One should not plead. Stop begging & chasing your ex. Such behavior makes one look foolish & miserable. And such behavior is irritating for your partner which may repel him/her more than building an attraction towards you.
  • If you give your ex a little space, chances are more for him/her to come back to you.
  • Do not give your ex too many phone calls, stop going to their house, do not cry & show that you are depressed. I have also seen people threatening suicide (But I am sure that never happens). Your ex will never ever take such things seriously. These things may irritate him/her more may force more to go away from you.
  • He/she may be there to support you emotionally but it does not mean that you are soon going to get your old relationship back. It happens just because you have spent hell lot time together & he/she still cares (Nothing more than that).
  • If you feel that making them envy by make them knowing that you are dating somebody else, or you are succeeding in your work or prospering may not be of help. Trust me it does not make any changes.
  • Make yourself understand the reason why your partner walked out of your life. There has to be a reason. If because he/she is dating someone else then even if they come back you should not entertain them. But if you have done or said something which forced them to go away then you have to be a little patient.
  • If you feel that you have actually done something which may force your ex not to come back to you then take a little time & stop trying. It may hurt you but you know nothing is in your hand.
  • Remember it is very difficult to make somebody understand or explain certain situations. You end up hurting yourself. You also have right to think about yourself. Don't give yourself much of mental pressure.
  • Give your ex space. Don't chase them. Let him/her miss you & everything you used to do to pamper your ex. Wait. It may lead to a positive result.
  • But don't forget to wish them on their birthday's. But do not lead the conversation where you may again start talking about your old relationship & most of the time conversation end up with a fight which is indeed harmful.
  • If you meet them in a party or market, don't pretend that you are angry. But be polite & just wish them. Let them feel that you handling the situation with a sense of maturity & practically.
I am sure most of us must have experienced such situations or some may have behaved anxiously. Let me know your comments on the post or any suggestions and feel free to share your experiences (if you would like to).

Your Favorite Track Is Not Original...But a Copied One

Another reality of Film Industry. Did you know that most of your favorite bollywood tracks are not original ones. Most of the super hit songs are copied from the tracks composed by some foreigner music Directors. And our Indian music directors are always ready to steal them. They are already waiting for those music directors to compose a new track which will be used by them to be sold in the Indian market. They are getting fame & appreciation because of somebody else's creativity. I was full of anger when came to know that all my favorite tracks are just not original creativity but copied ones. I am sure if you will listen to the original tracks you will be shocked. Our indian music director are just sleeping & with no creativity they make audiences feel how great they are.

Well now I atleast would not spent money in these INSPIRED trackes but will love to listen to original ones.

Real Footage - "Blair Witch"


The other day one of my friends handed over me a CD. He told me that there is a original documentary which he wants me to watch as it is really interesting and scary. The movie starts. The beginning is with the following warning - "In October of 1994, three student filmmakers disappeared in the woods near Burkittsville, Maryland while shooting documentary called "The Blair Witch Project" A year later their footage was found."

Three filmmakers Heather Donahue, Josh (Joshua Leonard) and Mike (Michael William) started shooting for a project. They began with interviewing the local people. Some of them believe in the fact of Witch where some do not. Stories the local residents told reveal the fact that they are still live with fear of the Witch who is responsible for the death of many children. They head towards the woods leaving their car roadside the jungle in search of the Blair Witch. They were really excited to revealing the mystery of the woods. First night they spent in the jungle was peaceful. But they could hear some voices surrounding them. They try to know the truth but could catch nothing in the camera. Second night was frightful which made them feel that it was dangerous staying back for one more night. They decided to get out of the place but lost the map. They still move further in the search of way back home but could not succeed. As if woods did not want them to leave the place. Josh gets separated from Heather & Mike. Another fearful night arrives which they had to spent in jungle forcefully. That night they heard the screams of someone. They decline to believe that it was Josh. Next morning Heather found out the pile of woods which revealed that what has happened last night.

Heather does not discuss with Mike about what she saw. Here comes the last night they spent in the jungle when they disappeared. What happened to them is still a mystery. But the truth is they are no more. The last days of their lives were hell. Frightful. After watching the footage, my belief is strong. Please watch the movie if get a chance. If you don't believe in supernatural things you may start believing or you may still feel that it is fake. You decide.

Are you a Movie Freak...Here is the Truth....

Do you plan to watch Movies every weekend or anytime you get a chance??? How many of them do you appreciate??? I am talking specifically about Bollywood Movies.
The movies I felt worth watching were Chocolate & Rang De Basanti. While just researching on internet came across the link which revealed that most of the movies now a days made in Bollywood are inspired by Hollywood Movies. I was really disappointed by the fact and when I tried to understand what kind of inspiration these Bollywood filmmakers get from hollywood movies, the truth was bollywood movies are exactly the copy of hollywood movies. In some of the movies you may realize that they do not even change the scenes. Bollywood movies are simply remake of hollywood movies. And script writers hardly have to put in thier brains to write a new story. Directors just have to guide the actors a little as they already know what scene they are going to get shot. The list of the so called INSPIRED movies is long. With no creativity or new ideas/concepts. If compared, you may find hollywood movies are much better than bollywood movies. And these copied movies do not leave an affect on audiences which an english movie may leave. These film makers just try to make movie in a way which could be sold in the market and people watch them may be because they do not have a choice. Only glamourous things & activities. Nothing practical & unfortunately not original at all. Just some additions or deletions of the scenes are made as per the requirement but that most of the time does not work. Love stories, life tragedies etc. etc. which irritate me atleast. And ultimately filmmakers are there to do business but (shamefully) with nothing original.
Here is the list of so called Inspired Movies. Please watch the original movies (Hollywood ones) and you may realize the difference.
