Most of us already be familiar with what guest blogging is and how it can help your website succeed. But for those who don’t know yet, guest blogging is a method of contributing content to other websites associated to yours with a link to your website provided in return.
Most websites have previously attempted guest blogging movement to increase the flow of incoming links and juice to their website.
Here’s Google’s view on Guest blogging for links.
Contributing articles to a new website is actually good way to increase your relations and online presence. However, doing this just only for the sake of link is a dreadful idea. Instead of an author’s bio, include your link in the content so you are able to use different anchor text or embed your images and videos in content of your post with links back to your website.

• Make sure all the websites you guest blog on are highly applicable to your website – Keep your website links approaching from niche-related websites to avoid being penalized by search engines for manipulating links.
• Become regular contributors to the websites you guest blog on – You need to be frequently seen on the websites where your content is published to keep readers busy and to establish a strong online presence.
• Use long string anchor text as often as possible – Many guest blogs that I have seen are using keyword based anchor text (short tail and long tail) with both correct match and incomplete match. Which is quite disturbing since Google sees websites with exact match keyword link profile as manipulating their SERP. So avoid using exact match anchor text to keep your site safe from dangers associated with exact match.
Don’ts
• Guest blog all over - Just like over optimization of anchor text and link profile, having plenty of signals coming from different websites even related to yours might cause you problem in the future. Especially if you managed to publish 100 guest blogs in a tiny period of time, and you used exact match keyword.
• Buy links – This has never been a good idea, particularly if these paid links are passing link juice. Link buying to build links is a big no-no and will only punish your website. Just don’t do it.
• Author bio links – Links in bio sections have become very manipulative including being used for exact match anchor text linking to a webpage/website. Although we want to rank for the keyword, it is still not a good idea to use keyword anchor text.
Although guest blogging is still working well for some websites, it is still too early to tell if it will go on to work. Filling your own site with fresh, updated content on a usual basis is still the best way to keep your audience engaged and build your rank.

Photography is the result of combining several technical discoveries. Long before the first photographs were made, Chinese philosopher Mo Di and Greek mathematicians Aristotle and Euclid described a pinhole camera in the 5th and 4th centuries BCE.[8][9] In the 6th century CE, Byzantine mathematician Anthemius of Tralles used a type of camera obscura in his experiments,[10] Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen) (965–1040) studied the camera obscura and pinhole camera,[9][11] Albertus Magnus (1193–1280) discovered silver nitrate,[12] and Georg Fabricius (1516–71) discovered silver chloride.[13] Techniques described in the Book of Optics are capable of producing primitive photographs using medieval materials.

ReplyDeleteDaniele Barbaro described a diaphragm in 1566.[17] Wilhelm Homberg described how light darkened some chemicals (photochemical effect) in 1694.[18] The fiction book Giphantie, published in 1760, by French author Tiphaigne de la Roche, described what can be interpreted as photography.[17]
The discovery of the camera obscura that provides an image of a scene dates back to ancient China. Leonardo da Vinci mentions natural cameras obscura that are formed by dark caves on the edge of a sunlit valley. A hole in the cave wall will act as a pinhole camera and project a laterally reversed, upside down image on a piece of paper. So the birth of photography was primarily concerned with developing a means to fix and retain the image produced by the camera obscura.
The first success of reproducing images without a camera occurred when Thomas Wedgwood, from the famous family of potters, obtained copies of paintings on leather using silver salts. Since he had no way of permanently fixing those reproductions (stabilizing the image by washing out the non-exposed silver salts), they would turn completely black in the light and thus had to be kept in a dark room for viewing.
Renaissance painters used the camera obscura which, in fact, gives the optical rendering in color that dominates Western Art. The camera obscura literally means "dark chamber" in Latin. It is a box with a hole in it which allows light to go through and create an image onto the piece of paper.
