SEO Ranking Research Tools

  Introduction SEO is a complex topic that requires a lot of research and work. Not only do you have to work hard to get to the top of the SERPs, but you have to work hard to stay there, as well. But how do you know if your efforts are really working? If you’re targeting dozens, even hundreds of keywords or more, how can you possibly keep up with whether or not your rankings are going up, staying the same, or even slipping? Think about this: Let’s say you’re trying to lose weight. You go on a diet and start exercising, but you have no measuring tape and no scale to track your results. You might see occasional signs that you’re actually losing weight, like your pants fitting a bit looser, but without real results staring you in the face, you’re likely to lose motivation. You might even give up entirely. The same thing can happen in SEO. You might see occasional signs that your rankings are improving, such as jumps in traffic, but that could be due to anything from getting a post on ...

Top 6 cameras for macro photography


While DSLRs are the best option for macro photography, here’s a round-up of point and shoots that come very close to a DSLR in terms of quality and accuracy. You may have come across the term macro photography and though this type of photography can be understood in a variety of ways, the most common notion associated with it is shooting close-up images of different objects. In this type of shooting, you can also expect to get the best amount of detail of the object in focus and a shallow depth of field of the background that can make some truly artistic shots. Shallow depth of field is not the only advantage of macro shots, in this mode, you will also find a lot of detail in the image which is basically the essence of any photograph. 
Aperture is important for good macro shots and is denoted by F-stops that can be also categorized as focal ratio or F-number. For macro shots, most compact cameras come with a dedicated macro mode in which, the aperture value found on them is usually F/ 3.2. However, to achieve a better macro shot, you would require a camera with a wide aperture value of say F/ 3.0 or wider.  Most point and shoot cameras with a wider aperture value are priced a lot more in comparison to standard digital compact cameras and allows you to shoot objects as close as up to 2cm. This close distance is essential for macro photography.
While DSLRs are the best option for macro photography, here’s a round-up of point and shoots that come very close to a DSLR in terms of quality and accuracy.
