Are you feeling bore? No need friend! Take it easy.

I am trying to provide several unusual ideas that could aid you to overcome that issue. Hoping, you will enjoy great success on your SEO Campaign.

Selecting And Placing Keywords:

The first thing you commonly confirm that you have selected and placed right keywords to your website’s content and it is called rich content. When it comes to adding rich content to your website, definitely you will not like to misplace a keyword. It is always greatly appreciated. However, you could not expect all the people searching for something would be able to type appropriate keywords for search engine optimization. That is why I suggest you to add a few misspelled keywords and of course, in misplace but not too much that make vulnerable your website’s standard as well as reliability.

Adding Images And Maps:

Image is a magnetic asset to attract search engine’s eye. To target the keywords places you should add some images matched to those places. Be sure to add only a few but very necessary images rather than superfluous.

Adding Latest Information:

At this fast time, nobody loves to recite old items and all search engines are fond of recent news, information and contents. So, your website’s substances should be up-to-date as much as possible. You may think starting a recent blog full of a variety of latest articles and information, not matter what are the topics. To drive more and more visitors it is mandatory.

Family budgeting

Dear friend, there is no last technique to improvise your website’s rankings. Try any of them, I wish your success. I am hoping to provide further tips later. Bye.

Impact of keywords in developing an SEO friendly website

Many of us think over the matter how to seo their websites but unfortunately most of them do not know the importance of keywords in title tag. Keyword in the title may reach your website to the highest-ranking position in Google and other search engines because what you write in the title is shown in the search result as your page title. However, you must remember that the keyword should be short and put as early as possible in the title. You may take the advantages of SEO by putting your keyword in the URL itself. Hence, you have to be sure that there are contents related to the keyword too.

Proper keyword density in the document is another factor that plays a vital in upgrading a website. You must check the keyword density and keep them between 3-7% for the major keywords and 1-2% for the minor keywords. You must avoid keyword stuffing because it is suspicious and might bring unexpected bad result to your website.

Other important places you should keep in mind to put keywords are anchor text, headings, in the beginning of a document, in <alt> tag and most important in the Meta tag. Keyword in the anchor text of inbound links is considered as getting a vote from this site. Keyword in the headings contributes a lot in upgrading your website but you must be aware of the fact your page has text about the keyword. As spiders do not read the images rather they read the description in the <alt> tag, you should put keywords in the description of the images. Though keywords in the Meta tag in less important in Google, it plays a vital role in Yahoo and Bing.

You must be familiar with the phrase keyword proximity if want to use keyword phrases instead of single keyword. Keyword proximity means putting keyword phrases together as you designed them. You must not separate them using other word/words while preparing you text document.

 Another wonderful technique of optimization is going for secondary keywords. If you choose secondary keywords, you will certainly face less competition.

  12. List of all the Hindi/indigenous words and the page numbers:  What do you think are the reasons that Rosie and Marco failed to develop any successful conjugal life? Marco’s extreme devotion towards his study and carelessness towards his fascinating young wife is the major reason of their failure. Rosie is also responsible as she makes an illegal relationship with Raju not only for love but to materialize her dream of dancing. Raju also takes the opportunity of the frustration and unhappy mood of Rosie and builds up the relation. When Marco realizes the truth, the relationship between Marco and Rosie ends pathetically.


  1.  Do you think that Raju and Rosie fall in love with each other for the same/similar reasons? What do you think attract Rosie to Raju? As a very attractive person Raju is a romantic who falls in love with Rosie at first sight. But Rosie weakness for Raju is not only for love but for her dancing art. Again Raju possesses all the qualities which Marco lack. Raju’s sense of human psychology  favors him to take the chance. Raju’s caring attitude, his love and passion also attracts Rosie towards him.
  2.  Who seduces who?

Raju seduces Rosie because it is Raju who first persuades  Rosie and allures her to become an artist.

  1.   What is Marco?

Marco is a professional archeologist and always devoted to his study.

  1. How do see Rosie’s relation with Marco before and after her elopement with Raju? Is she a flirt? Or as Raju thinks of her a liar-seducer?

Rosie becomes much careful towards Marco after her elopement with Raju from the sense of guiltiness. She is neither a faithful wife nor a devoted lover. Her intention is not to flirt with Raju but she fails to establish her identity anywhere. It is the problem with Rosie that she does not know what to do. She goes as the events drive her. Still we cannot call her a flirt or seducer.

  1.  What factors operate to develop the breach between Rosie and Raju? Do you think any or both of them are responsible for this separation?

Both Rosie and Raju are responsible for the breach. Rosie’s establishment as an artist is the major cause because she remains hours and hours with artists and actors and becomes careless towards Raju. Again Rosie’s feelings for Marco makes her bored in the profession. This attitude of Rosie creates a sense of inferiority in Raju as he feels afraid. Later on out of his insecurity and jealousy, he commits forgery. This event brings an eternal breach between them and Rosie leaves him to lead an independent life.

 

 

  1. Why do you think Raju goes for forging Rosie’s signature? Is this act logical enough?

Raju’s forgery is an illegal act, which is responsible for the breach between Rosie and Raju. It is a flaw in his character though he does it for his own security. Raju forges Rosie’s signature for not only the jewelry box but also its association with Marco. He thinks that it will prove Marco’s generosity and Rosie will be weaker towards Marco. Moreover, Raju is somewhat greedy to find the box as he waits to receive the parcel by forging Rosie’s signature. Though we feel for Raju who tries his best to keep Rosie with him, his forgery is an illegal act.

  1. Rosie belongs to family of professional dancing girls. What are these girls like?

Though Rosie is a born dancer, she does not grow up as a dancer. She is an M.A. in economics. Professional dancing girls do not treat dancing as an art rather as a way of earning money. Very often, they flirt with many people only for money. Though Rosie has a great affection for dancing, her intention is not to make money but she likes art for art’s sake. Professional dancing girls do not bother about art at all.

  1. Traditionally what does a snake- girl signify? Is Rosie a snake girl?

In Indian context, the idea of snake girl is associated with someone who worships snake. More so, it indicates bad women who follow tricks in order to attract others. Though Raju’s mother and his uncle call Rosie a snake girl, Rosie is not so. Dancing is favorite Rosie for which she leaves Marco. She wants to be free in her profession and finds true love from Raju. Only for this reason, we cannot call her a snake girl.  Again, at the very beginning of their relationship, it is not Rosie who attracts Raju rather Raju attracts Rosie emotionally.

 

  1. Symbols Narayan employs in the novel are mostly indigenous. What do the animal images symbolize?

The  descriptions of animals comes when Raju, Rosie and Marco stay at Peak House. These animals symbolize the instinctual part of human being. This instinct is so powerful that our consciousness becomes defeated to it as it is happened to Rosie and Raju.

  1. Why does Velan’s brother misreport what Raju said about fasting? Do you think this incident is forced?

Velan’s brother is half-witted and the incident is not forced. The boy is a fool that he misinterprets Raju’s message. As he is half-witted, he is not allowed to go to Swami. Getting a favorable chance, he visits the saint and after his return from the saint, everybody asks what the saint said. Therefore, he tells a lie out of his fear that he has talked to the saint about rain. This event is forced but the message of his fasting is misinterpreted with the earlier answer. The irony is that the cause of Raju’s ultimate martyrdom was the folly of an idiot.

Mempi Peak House  

The Peak House was perched on the topmost cliff on Mempi Hills. Marco stays there for one month while researching on archeology in Mempi Cave Pictures.

 

  1. Joseph: Joseph is the caretaker of the Peak House. He is a Christian and very faithful and caring towards Marco. His village is two miles away from Peak House.
  2.  12 days:

As a Mahatma , Raju is called upon to undertake a twelve –day fast so that there may be rain, and the starving villagers of Mangala may be saved.

  1. Pyol:

Pyol is the name of a school where Raju reads at his childhood. In this school there is only one teacher. The students of these types of schools are also from middle or lower middle class family. The teacher is paid one rupee per month for each boy.

  1. Gaffur-The driver:

Gaffur is a minor flat character in The Guide. In the earlier days of Raju’s job as a tourist guide Gaffur was his best friend. Gaffur is a practical man not so romantic and high ambitious like Raju. He knew that Raju was making love with Rosie. That time Raju becomes bored on him. After Rosie’s arrival to Raju, Raju goes for money to Gaffur and Gaffur refuses to give him money and leaves him. The arrival Rosie makes a breach between their friendships.

  1.   Mempi Cave Pictures:

These are some painting on Mempi cave. Again, this is a chapter on the book The cultural History of South India , written by Marco Polo. The caves of Mempi Hills is discovered by Marco and he researches on the paintings. In this chapter, Marco acknowledges Raju’s contribution on his research.

  1.  Room no.28:

It is situated on the second floor of Anand Bhavan Hotel where Rosie and Marco stay. Again it is the room where Raju and Rosie build up an extra-marital relationship in the absence of Marco.

Freedom and Creativity of Women in Virginia Woolf

The central point of Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own is that every woman needs freedom-something men are able to enjoy without question. To create something women must be free financially as well as from all kinds of prejudices. Therefore, the room of women stands for many larger issues, such as privacy, leisure, and financial independence. Not only economic facts but also she emphasizes on an unprejudiced state of mind of women to show creativity. A room of one’s own is a mighty proposition for women’s independence in creative endeavors. In the past women were not allowed into particular universities and libraries-let alone given the opportunity to creatively express themselves. We will analyze Woolf’s insight towards the necessity of financial freedom of women first in the essay.

For this, Woolf gives reference to the history where women had no money of their own. She gives information how the buildings of Oxford University have been constructed. When the age of faith was over and the age of reason came in the 18th century, merchant class and manufacturer were the patrons of the universities. At that time women had no money to contribute to the Oxford and Cambridge. That time universities founded by the industrialists.

A room of one’s own is a mighty proposition for women’s independence in creative endeavors. In the past women were not allowed into particular universities and libraries-let alone given the opportunity to creatively express themselves.

Much of ‘A Room of One’s Own’ is dedicated to an analysis of the patriarchal English society that has limited women’s liberty. Woolf reflects upon how men, the only gender allowed to keep their own money, have historically fed resources back into the universities and like institutions. These help they gain power in the first place. In contrast, the women’s university, the narrator stays at had to scrap together funds when it was chartered. Woolf presents that women are not even allowed in the library at the men’s college without special permission, or to cross the lawn.

Woolf repeatedly insists upon the necessity of an inheritance that requires no obligations and of the privacy of one’s own room for the promotion of creative genius. Without money, women are slavishly dependent on men; without privacy, constant interruptions block their creativity. Freedom of thought is hampered as women consume themselves with thoughts of gender. Woolf insists, “A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to right fiction.” Especially she holds that a woman should have 500 pounds per year and a room with a lock on the door. For her own money, Woolf relied on an inheritance from her aunt; she claims it was give to her “For no other reason than that [she] share[d] her name.” The sum was 500 pounds per year, for the duration of Woolf’s life; the same amount she insists is vital to any woman wishing to write.

For the narrator of ‘A Room of One’s Own’ money is the primary element that prevents women from having a room of their own, and thus having a room of their own, and thus, having money is of the utmost importance. Because women do not have power, their creativity has been systematically stifled throughout the ages. The narrator writes, “Intellectual freedom depends upon material things. Poetry depends upon intellectual freedom. And women have always been poor, not for 200 years merely, but from the beginning of time…” She uses this quotation to explain why so few women have written successful poetry. She believes that the writing of novels lends itself more easily to frequent starts and stops, so women are more likely to write novels than poetry: women must content with frequent interruptions because they are so often deprived of a room of their own in which to write. Without money, women will remain in second place to their creative male counterparts. The financial discrepancy between men and women at the time of Woolf’s writing perpetuated the myth that women were less successful writers.

Virginia Woolf’s attention is drawn to a cat without a tail. The oddly jarring and incongruous sight of this cat is an exercise in allowing the reader to experience what it might feel to be a woman writer. Although the narrator goes on to make an interesting and valuable point about the atmosphere at her luncheon, she has lost her original point. This shift underscores her claim that women, who so often lack a room of their own and the time to write, cannot compete against the man who are not forced to struggle for such necessities.

Women have to free themselves from self-hatred and anger against men in order to show their creativity. Men always write negatively and rich men feel threatened that women can seize their power. Women have no confidence, as they are imprisoned. The sense of inferiority destroys their self-confidence and kills all the potentialities. They start to hate themselves. Therefore, Virginia Woolf’s point is that women have to come out from such mental barriers. They have to free their minds. As they are colonized in the world of men, they have to decolonize their minds first. It is a way towards real freedom.

Virginia Woolf gives reference to Elizabethan age where there was no women writer to show her creativity. They had freedom only in fiction and plays of Shakespeare. Shakespeare transcends about women’s freedom by creating Rosalind and Celia. In literature all these characters are created by male, women in literature have much strength and potentiality. In reality, they are slavish, dependent, and self-sacrificing character. Male writers upon them impose all these qualities. As women have no freedom represent them, men represent them in wrong way.

Giving importance to women’s freedom Woolf has made an imaginary sister of Shakespeare with equal genius like her brother. Judith Shakespeare is just as talented as her brother is, but while his talents are recognized and encouraged by their family and the rest of the society, Judith’s are under estimated and explicitly deemphasized. She writes but she is secretive and ashamed of it. She is engaged at a young age; when she begs not have to male, her beloved father beats her. She eventually commits suicide. Woolf invents the tragic figure of Judith to prove that a woman has talented, as Shakespeare could never have achieved such success. As women are maltreated in patriarchal society, they cannot flourish their creativeness.
