5 Cool Tips to Help Google Penalize You
Most of Bloggers who are into SEO and blogging for a while know about Google penalty and Google slap. This usually happens in the form of decrease in page rank, removal of pages from Google search index, low Search engine ranking.
There are a few things which you should avoid to get Google penalty, but if you are determined to get Google penalty, here are few easy to get penalize point which you should do.
Buy Text Links:
You are building a blog about discount coupons and to get first page Google ranking, you started buying lots of links from High Page rank site and you might get on the first page of Google but Wait! what about those coupon sites, which exist for years and has been adding actual values to search engine? It might take couple of days but Google will detect that this link building is nothing more than paid or promoted links and Boom! Next morning you are out of Google ranking and worst case scenario, your site is out of Google.
Auto Feed Blog:
Do you love the idea of making money in auto pilot? Create a blog which generate automatic content and you can put your adsense or any other ads and make huge money? Obviously this idea is not new and many people actually made money doing this, but now this is something which looks good when we talk about it, but in reality Google hate Automatic blogs like I and other serious bloggers do. It's a known fact Google started de-indexing auto blogs and if you are one of those who planning to run a auto RSS blog better drop it and become a serious blogger. Meanwhile this is seriously easy way to get penalize.
Mutual Link Exchange:
"You scratch my back and I will scratch yours". Seriously this sounds so cool but in SEO this is not as good as it sounds. Google hate link exchange and specially when it's obvious. One common and working way to do is making a tripod. Assume 3 sites as A,B, C and link exchange should be like this: A–>B, B–>C, C–>A. Though make sure all three sites are relevant.
Keyword Stuffing:
Google hates keyword stuffing. If you write a post and stuff it with keywords like you writing a post about iPhone ringtones and you use this keyword twice in your post meta title, repeated insanely within your post and none the less, in meta keywords you are using it like: iPhone ringtones, iPhone ring-tone, Ringing tone iPhone and so on and on, you are doing nothing but inviting Google to penalize you.
Right way: Let your post be natural, use your strong keyword once in your post title, 2-3 times in post description, also use keyword variations and put your keywords in your meta keywords. Easy but this is more effective.
Made for Affiliate blog:
Most of people start blogging with the aim of making money online and seriously blogging is the easiest way to make money online but making all your post cluttered with affiliate link will make your blog a complete make money online monster. In Google guidelines it is clearly mentioned
"There is no problem in being an affiliate as long as you create some added value for your users and produce valuable content that gives a user a reason to visit your site. For example, you could create product reviews, ratings, and product comparisons."
So if you are planning to build a make money affiliate site, make sure you add original content and not just doorway for search engines.
If you planning to work on building backlinks and your search engine ranking, pick any method from 101 ways to create quality backlinks.
Over to you
I would love to know your opinion here too. What could be other reasons that Google can penalize you?

I have a good laugh looking at the first recommendation and Google ad that shows up right after the blog post..
The first recommendation was that buying of text links will get you penalised by Google.. The Google ads that was showing right after the blog was ..Probably we should pay $9.90 to buy 1,000 link for this site to validate if the 1st recommendation on buying of text links will indeed get it penalized by google…
I disagree about link exchanges. You only need to look at many of the blogs and websites within any given niche, and you'll notice that many of them link back and forth to each other, whether those links were mutually agreed upon, or just happened work out that way. Google's guidelines encourage website owners to link as long as they are editorial decisions.

September 28th, 2010 at 10:54 amSteve mutual link exchange in the same niche doesn't harm for sure but excessive of it is bad.. More over I was referring to link exchange from unmatched niche ..Forget to add a note of it.. Though from my experience tripod structured link exchange is always better..!! Thanks for dropping by and for your comment!!
I have to disagree about link exchanges too. If a link exchange can benefit a visitor, then do it.
Those are mostly used by spammers, so they probably know already what are they doing and what the consequences are.

October 4th, 2010 at 6:33 amHi Billy,
Like with anything in life, there are different ways of doing link exchange. Some ways may work, some not. But to say that link exchange is wrong altogether is too harsh.
Let's create a scenario:
You sell beautiful blue ribbons, and someone down the street sells beautiful pink ribbons. You've come to a mutual agreement that you would not be selling pink ribbons to anyone coming into your shop, but would rather send anyone looking for one, down to the other shop; and the owner of the pink ribbon shop does the same for you. Both parties benefit, and people entering any one of the shops looking for a ribbon in any of those colours. This can be done with link exchange too. If it's beneficial for two sites to exchange links, AND for people visiting the site, then I'd say go for it. Don't let your own preconceptions of what Google may or may not do, keep you back from doing so.
One should always consider people first, then the bots.Have a lovely week my friend!

Nothing can kill a company's online presence faster than a Google Slap! Most of the time they don't even know that they are doing something wrong. All it takes is an inexperienced person to be put in charge of a web sites online marketing, they read one blog and Boom, They think they know it all, Put everything they read from the blog into practice and 30 days later, " err where's the site gone?"

As much I would love all of these to be true but there's still a lot of autoblogs, that buy links, are MFA etc outperforming blogs by honest webmasters practicing super whitehat seo. Just writing content and waiting wont bring you too much traffic…

I think you are very right with these tips. This is especially for those who buy links,. This brings traffic but then the traffic is not targeted. Website owners should learn to try getting traffic which is targeted.

Reviews for Pistachio Buttons(7)
Sort By :
I found these hard to cut into 1/4 inch slices. I made them thicker and baked a bit longer. Wished they had a bit more chocolate flavour.
These were delicious! I was a little worried about the amount of almond extract, but it was perfect. I actually used more butter than called for on accident, so the dough was quite moist. My husband really liked these, too! They are very cute.
I made it today. It was easy and good. I did roll the finished rolls in additional crushed pistachios and it added more of the good pistachio flavor. I think it would be good even without the chocolate dough. I plan to try it that way next time. Got done in 7 to 8 minutes in my oven.
These were good and presentation nice.
Please don't rate any recipe low if you entirely change the recipe as in the gluten free person.your review is useless to us and lowers the score of the recipe. Totally irresponsible!
I am diabetic and gluten intollerant, so I have to substitute rice flour and stevia. This recipe doesn't work very well as gluten free/sugar free. The dough is too crumbly, and the unsweetened chocolate overpowers.

Retirment life "ain't" what it is cracked up to be. No time off, less money. I could hardly wait until retirement age, what the heck was i thinking.

I have been enjoying retirement so far. I get plenty of rest, my body doesn't have all the aches and pains that working "provided", I don't have to deal with all of those whacky personality quirks of co-workers, it's been pretty good so far.

Too bad the Herald did not pick the Dumbocrat squawk for today….I would like to know, Just who does the sheeple think is paying for the lavish vacations? The people who are Paying TAXES maybe but not him. If the first family was so concerned about their sheep why not stay in Washington a little more and spend those millions to help the hurricane victims. At least he could go check on the rebuilding of their golf courses or shoot some skeet there.
PatrickY2K 1 year ago
Seriously? Obama isn't in Washington enough? Is he spending too many months at his Texas ranch?
Abytaxpayer 1 year ago
LOL knew the sheep would bark......It is not now much TIME they are gone from Washington, BUT how much money it is costing US the taxpayers to keep them on Vacations. But if paying Taxes is not a issue for YOU then spending tax money can't be either. Read the squawk it was writen by a TRUE Dumbocrat. BTW wise Azz they have cell phones in Texas just like they do on the golf courses....So what has Bush got to do with the big "O" spending? Nothing..... but got to Bash or Blame Bush because you know nothing else to say...

The Big Picture for the Week of July 12, 2009
In the picture I am eating a doughnut that is flavored like an orange creamsicle and it is delicious. Doughnuts can cause all sorts of problems depending on how they are used. This is of course similar to many realms of the investment world.
Exotic countries like Peru, unusual commodity holdings like nickel or swing for the fence levered ETFs can be used such that the provide a little extra at the margin or cause a massive move in either direction.
Personally I don't think there is anything wrong with eating a doughnut every now and then--ie moderation. If you eat two for breakfast everyday and wash your lunch down with a soda or two then you probably not where you need to be health wise.
If you have 20% in various emerging market funds, 15% in various commodity products and 10% in a double long fund you probably are not where you need to be portfolio wise. The kick that those can give when markets are generally going up can be fantastic, the pain they could cause on the way down could be panic inducing.
It seems that no matter what happens people will always be risk junkies and it seems they are willing to take that risk at a bad time. Start with the idea that the average return for the broad market in a given year is close to 10%. If your return ranges from 8-12% and you save properly your probably going to be ok. So in that context, if you put 3% in the Peru ETF in a year that it doubles you are getting 300 out of the 1000 basis points you need for the year. If you also factor in getting 250 basis points in dividend yield for the year then you are more than halfway to what you need for the year and the rest of the portfolio doesn't have to work as hard, meaning you don't need as much volatility in the rest of the portfolio.
Practically speaking it is tough for a country fund to go up that much compared to a stock. One of the reasons I like to use more individual stocks than ETFs is that if you own 30 stocks and some ETFs to build a portfolio the chances are good that one stock will double or come close to doubling. It seems that during the bull market there were plenty of stocks that did this and that will likely be the case in the next bull cycle as well. This is not a brag about stock picking ability, I think if you look at the holdings in any mediocre mutual fund you will find a couple of stocks that have gone up 50-100%.
I would also add that very few stocks go to zero during bull markets. If you buy a stock and every other stock in the group goes up 20% the one you chose drops 25% you probably need to reassess the story. And if you did get one wrong, by having a moderate weight you don't blow up your portfolio.
Buying the iPath Tin ETN (JJT) a year ago at $51 only to have it cut in half on you in six months is not the worst thing you can do and may not even be that detrimental. Putting 10% in into JJT and it then cutting in half could have been a problem though. I mention JJT because I remember reading something very bullish and even more compelling about Tin about a year ago. I had all I needed in the way of commodity exposure, which is to say very little, but it was a good story.
The key to all these exciting investment themes and tasty doughnuts is moderation. An occasional doughnut for someone who is generally fit will not kill them. A small exposure to country that blows up will not kill a portfolio.

There's a little ditty posted in a local donut shop here that basically says "as you go through life, keep your eye upon the donut and not upon the hole." In other words, what you have versus what you don't have.
I think, metaphorically, that's why investors chase past returns and, candidly, it's a struggle for me, too. As a case in point, I've avoided real estate for obvious reasons, only to read that foreign RE funds have screamed to a double in the past few months. I missed that completely and now am fighting the urge to fill that "hole" in my portfolio.
Following a period when diversification helped very little to protect one's portfolio, I think it's only natural to want to overweight things at the margin. Not right, just natural. - 6:18 AM

Talking about ETFs in moderation, Powershares Double Long and Double Short (on a monthly basis) ETFs (DXO + DTO) seem to be a much simpler/better vehicles for trading levered oil than the Proshares products. Any thoughts Roger.

targeted monthly could have some appeal, assuming it can do that but the two tickers you left are for crude oil--I have no interest in directly owning crude oil.

I wonder how long it will take for most advisers to start recommending you keep no more than 30% of your assets in the US?

currently in your model portfolio, what is the percentage that you have in cash(liquid asset, Tbills, CD, Ect).

it varies from account to account maybe shy of 20%

"The following bike cleaning procedure is used by many professional race team mechanics.
It was developed over many years as a solution to the need for absolutely clean, properly adjusted bikes on the start line each morning of a stage race. Most pro team mechanics can perform the entire bike wash in under 8 minutes. They usually work in teams of two, one washes, the other dries, reassembles and waxes.
We suggest using a citrus or oil based degreaser for bike cleaning. Simple Green works well too, but it works a bit slower. Avoid degreasers with anything like Formula 409 or Fantastic in their mixture.
Important: We try to restrict the contact time to no more than two minutes when using citrus degreasers as they can attack the paint finish on your bike. Many degreasers are also sold as graffiti removers, and that is paint! Please be careful! T
The VAR Chainholder is our favorite. There is very little to wear out and it resists most all chemicals that we have used it with. Check with your local bikeshop for availability.
Ultimate Support Systems makes collapsable workstands that really speed up maintenence and bike cleaning. For working away from the shop, they are very handy. Our Favorite!
The right brushes are the key to efficient bike cleaning. We like the Rubbermaid brand. They are usually available from places like K-Mart, Target, Walmart, etc. Make sure the scrub brush has a finger guard
of some sort. Various bike supply companies sell complete sets as well.
For working on locations with no running water available, you can use a
bug/chemical sprayer to clean a drivetrain. This
one holds three gallons of water and costs about $35. Great for washing
bikes and killing things that crawl, bite and scare
the ladies...
Fill the wash bucket with water, mix in the dish
Mount the bike on the workstand, or lean it up against a tree or building. If you work this way, be careful not to scratch up the shifters.
Using a workstand is the best, easiest and most efficient way to support a bike when you work on it.
The BRS-80BT from Ultimate Support Systems is the best model we have found to date.
Remove the computer head and put it somewhere safe.
Remove the rear wheel.
Be careful of the rear wheel computer pickup, if there is one.
Support the chain with a chainholder. This will keep the chain from hitting the frame during the cleaning process.
Spray degreaser onto the rear cassette. Set the wheel aside.
Remember: Allow only two minutes of contact with citrus degreasers!
Spray degreaser onto the chain and drivetrain.
Saturate the chain.
Remember: Allow only two minutes of contact with citrus degreasers!
With the nail brush, scrub the rear cassette sprockets. Spray a bit of degreaser onto the brush also before you begin scrubbing.
Scrub the chain on all 4 sides. Rotate the cranks so you get to all parts of the chain. Between the degreaser and the brushing, the grime should break up.
Remove the chain from the front chainrings.
Shift to the inner chainring (smallest), then slide the chain off.
This makes it easier to clean all of the teeth.
Scrub the front chainrings, cranks, derailleurs and pedals.
Be sure to scrub between the chainrings too.
Make believe you're brushing your teeth.
Cleaner feels better.
Remount the chain on the front chainrings.
Scrub the rear derailleur.
Be sure to scrub the pulleys too. If the chain is moving, it makes it easier to clean the pulleys.
Hose off the rear wheel, be sure to remove all of the degreaser and old lubricant. Use a fine shower, not a hard jet stream. You don't want
to drive water into the bearings.
With a fine spray, thoroughly hose off the drivetrain. Make sure all of the degreaser and old lube is gone. Inspect the chain for any traces of
grit or deposits.
Take the large bristle brush, dip it into the soapy water. Start at the top of the frame. the entire drivetrain, underside of the fork, handlebars and shifters.
Soap down the entire bike. Use the big brush the clean out every component.
Clean off all of the deposits from the brakes. Brush aggressively to break up mud and grime.
Use the soap brush to clean out all of the buildup inside the fork.
Clean off all of the deposits from shifters and brake hoods.
Scrub the front chainrings, pedals and cranks. You can't be too clean here.
Scrub the rear cassette where lots of grime and dirt can hide.
Wash down the bike with a fine shower from the hose. Try to get off all of the soap. Do a good thorough rinse and leave no residue.
Work the chain with your hands. If there are still traces of old lube,
grit or dirt, clean it again. The more care you put in, the better the results will be.
Dry the bike thoroughly with a soft absorbent cloth or chamois. This will prevent waterspots.
Make sure the drivetrain is completely dry. Some mechanics like to use compressed air to blow out the chain
At this point, begin your mechanical inspection and adjustments. Once the bike is clean you can really see what needs to be done.
If you are going to adjust the shifting, do it before the chain lube
goes on. It will be more accurate.
ou can now wax the bike, if you wish. Most auto waxes will work
fine on a bike. Follow the directions for the product you select.
Remount the rear wheel.
Inspect the braking surfaces on both wheels.
You can clean them up with a piece of Scotchbrite.
Shift the chain onto the large chainring on the
front and the small cog on the back and lube chain.

text: Posted By gonfishin on 19 Mar 2011 10:26 PM March 19, 2011 Norman Lures Hello Fellow club members. When I paid off my B.A.S.S. Life membership dues I received a set of lures valued at $75.00 at the time, the summer of 1985. The only 3 lures I remember were Norman Little N Deep Divers. One was solid brown, one had a fire tiger paint scheme and the third one had a chartreuse body and belly with a black back. Almost all of the fish I caught in a two week period were caught on the chanteuse colored bait. On a hunch I switched to the brown colored Little N. I didn't get a bite, not even a single nibble. I managed to catch a few fish on the fire tiger pattern. My partner only had plastic lures so he dug out chartreuse colored shad baits and started catching fish also. Color was the biggest factor during that trip. I used that chartreuse colored lure with great success all over Spain and in South Dakota. None of my other Norman lures have produced like "Rocky". My fishing buddies nick named my lure cause with my poor casting skills my lure was just as apt to crash into rocks on the bank or trees as it was to land on the water but it never cracked and the bill remained in tack. It has been 26 years since I first tried out those Norman lures. Just like anything else, things change, often driven by the bottom line. Companies want to make a profit so they look for ways to cut costs and increase revenue, which normally means using cheaper materials or processes and that translates into poor quality for the consumer. Just my thoughts. Try to enjoy the sport we all love so well. Tight lines, gonfishin P.S. My casting skills have improved some since those days.

Center Wyatt Smith has been given permission to leave the Providence Bruins to sign with a team in the German Elite League, according to coach Rob Murray.
Smith, 33, was on a one-year, two-way contract that paid him $105,000 in the AHL. He has an opportunity to make more in Germany, Murray said.
The team he is expected to sign with isn't known.
Smith was signed as a free agent after Trent Whitfield blew out his left Achilles tendon in late August.
Smith had been a dependable AHL player for several years, but things did not work out in Providence. Smith was a team-worst minus-14 and had 2-7-9 totals in 30 games.
Smith's last game for the P-Bruins was on Tuesday night in Portland.

The food was good. It's nice to find a place that knows how to make black beans & rice and sweet plantains. However, it's odd how little they give you of the black beans (2 tablespoons), rice (two tablespoons), and plantains (only 1 little piece). The steaks were just so-so (tough with a lot of waste), smothered in sauces that neither of us really liked. I was more than happy to pay $45 for this meal (plus another $7 for a decent glass of sangria), but I'd never pay their normal cost, which was $103 + $20 for tip. |
Decent food; just overpriced. |

India Today & Nielsen rankings, 2013
- University of Delhi is ranked first amongst universities in India.[2]
University rankings | |
General – International | |
QS (World)[3] | 100-150 |
QS (Asian)[4] | 27 |
General – India | |
India Today[5] | 1 |
The University of Delhi was ranked 441-450 in the QS World University Rankings of 2013,[3] 97 in the Youth Incorporated, Education Times and Rediff.com Global University Rankings 2014 and #80 in the QS Asian University Rankings of 2013.[4] In rankings of Indian universities, it was ranked first by the India Today India's Top 50 Universities of 2012.[5]
When the university was founded, only three colleges existed in Delhi at the time: St. Stephen's College founded in 1881, Hindu College founded in 1899 and Ramjas College founded in 1917, which were subsequently affiliated to it. The university thus had modest beginnings with only three colleges, two faculties (Arts and Science) and about 750 students. In October 1933, the university offices and the library shifted to the Viceregal Lodge Estate, and till today this site houses the offices of the main functionaries of the university. The university has grown into one of the largest universities in India. At present, there are 16 faculties, 86 academic departments, 77 colleges and 5 other recognised institutes spread all over the city, with 132435 regular students (UG: 114494,PG:17941) and 261169 students (UG:258831,PG:2338) in non-formal education programme.
In October 1933, the university offices and the library shifted to the Viceregal Lodge estate, where Viceroy Lord Hardinge stayed (1912–1931)[6]
The silver jubilee year of the university in 1947 coincided with India's independence, and the national flag was hoisted in the main building for the first time by VKRV Rao, the convocation ceremony for the year, however could not be held due to partition disturbances, thus a special ceremony was held in 1948, which was attended by prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru, Lord Mountbatten, Lady Mountbatten, Abul Kalam Azad, Zakir Hussain and S.S. Bhatnagar. Twenty-five years later the golden jubilee celebrations of 1973 were attended by then prime minister, Indira Gandhi, Satyajit Ray, Amrita Pritam and M S Subbulakshmi.[7]
Present form[edit]
Five departments namely chemistry, geology, zoology, sociology and history have been awarded the status of the Centres of Advanced Studies. These Centres of Advanced Studies have carved a niche for themselves as centres of excellence in teaching and research in their respective areas. In addition, a good number of University departments are also receiving grants under the Special Assistance Programme of the UGC in recognition of their outstanding academic work. 10 departments (Germanic & Romance Studies, Hindi, Persian, Geography, Music, East Asian Studies, Anthropology, Mathematics, B.R.Ambedkar, M. I.L.) are getting grants under DRS, 2 Departments (Buddhist Studies, English) are getting grants under DSA, 3 departments (English, Buddhist Studies, Social Work) are getting grants under AISHSS and 3 departments (African Studies, East Asian Studies, Developing Countries Research Centre) are getting grants under Area Studies Programmes. Department of Adult, Continuing Education and Extension and Women's Studies & Development Centre of the university are also getting special funding from UGC. The university today boasts of as many as 15 big libraries apart from libraries in colleges. The University Science Instrumentation Centre (USIC) which is now situated close to the Physics and Chemistry Departments houses a number of sophisticated and high-end research instruments. These instruments are used quite frequently by teachers and research scholars of postgraduate departments of the university as well as by many other institutions in Delhi and its neighbourhood. The university has recently laid fibre-optic network in the north and the south campuses connecting all colleges and departments.
When the University of Delhi expanded in many directions to keep pace with a rapidly growing city, South Campus was established in 1973 to facilitate access for the residents of South Delhi. It moved to its present location on Benito Juarez Road, near Dhaula Kuan, in 1984. The campus is now spread across 69 acres of green, hilly terrain and its buildings blend attractively with the natural surroundings. The various departments are located in the Faculty of Arts and the Faculty of Inter-disciplinary and Applied Sciences. S.P. Jain Centre for Management Studies is also located at the South Delhi Campus. Besides these, the campus has a good library, a Health Centre, a Bank, a Post Office, DTC Pass Section and administrative and examination blocks. South campus also provides some residential quarters for faculty members and the non-teaching staff. Outstation students are offered accommodation in three hostels.
Over the last seven decades the university has grown into one of the largest universities in India. At present, there are 14 faculties, 86 academic departments and 79 colleges spread all over the city, with 132435 regular students and 261169 students in non-formal education programmes[1] and the annual honorary degrees (Honoris causa) of the University have been conferred upon several distinguished people, including Amitabh Bachchan, Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit, Cardiologist Dr. Jayantibhai Patel, cartoonist R. K. Laxman and scientist CNR Rao (2006);[8] and British Prime Minister Gordon Brown (2008).[9] it develop from shivajikaal.
About New Delhi[edit]
As the national capital, New Delhi is the seat of executive, legislative, and judiciary branches of the Government of India. It also serves as the centre of the Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi. New Delhi is situated within the metropolis of Delhi and is one of the nine districts of Delhi Union Territory.[10]
- Delhi is a semi-desert state with great extremes of climate. June, at the time of admission, is the height of summer and temperatures can soar up to 48 degree Celsius. So, for candidates from more salubrious climates, it is important to be mentally and physically prepared for the heat, mainly because the process of admission may require long hours of being in the open. Therefore, suitable clothing and constant hydration is a must.[11]
- The University has two campuses in the northern and southern part of the city. The north campus is well connected with the yellow line of the Delhi Metro. The station is called Vishwa Vidyalaya, which means "university" in Hindi and Sanskrit. North campus is about 2.5 km from Delhi Vidhan Sabha and 7.0 km from ISBT. North campus is thus effectively connected to the central, parts of east Delhi and west Delhi by the Metro.
- To get to south Delhi one can take the Metro to central Delhi and look for alternative means of transport there.For a newcomer, auto-rickshaws are the most effective means of transport, though they are slightly expensive. Buses are economical and go everywhere; however, one needs at least a month to figure out routes. Once the session starts at various colleges, dedicated Delhi Transport Corporation buses ferry students from various parts of Delhi to the campuses.[11]
Statutory bodies[edit]
The Court, the Executive Council, the Academic Council and the Finance Committee are the authorities of the University.[12]
Academic council[edit]
The Academic Council is the highest academic body of the University and is responsible for the maintenance of standards of instruction, education and examination within the University. It has the right to advise the Executive Council on all academic matters.
Executive council[edit]
The Executive Council is the highest executive body of the University.
Finance committee[edit]
The committee is responsible for recommending financial policies, goals, and budgets that support the mission, values, and strategic goals of the university.
University Court[edit]
The University court is the highest body of the University.
Organisational charts[edit]
There are about eighty-three colleges affiliated to the University of Delhi, spread out all over the state. The Sherubtse College in Kanglung, Bhutan is also an affiliate of the University. There are two main campuses of the University: the north campus and the south campus.
North campus[edit]
The North Campus has 16 faculties and 84 departments.[15] It hosts the three original colleges which constituted the University of Delhi when it was founded: St. Stephen's College (founded 1881), Hindu College (founded 1899) and Ramjas College (founded 1917).[16] North campus proper now has nine colleges geographically centred on the Faculty of Arts and Science and the Faculty of Law. Competition for admission into all North campus colleges is extremely fierce. Some of the most popular colleges are Shri Ram College of Commerce, Indraprastha College for Women, Hindu College, SGTB Khalsa College, Miranda House, Daulat Ram College, Hansraj College, St. Stephen's College, Kirori Mal College, and Ramjas College.The extended off campus (NC) has Keshav Mahavidyalaya and SSGGS college of commerce in Pitampura. The Cluster Innovation Centre is a research facility that is independent of any university faculty/department[17] which serves as a platform for the University and its partners to forge linkages between various stakeholders from industry and academia. It currently runs two undergraduate degree programs in Technology, a Bachelors of Technology in Innovation with Mathematics, and an IT and Bachelors of Technology in Humanities ( Meta College Concept).
South campus[edit]
The South Campus started offering postgraduate programmes in 1973 in selected departments of the Faculties of Arts[18] and Social Sciences in a rented building. It was allotted land near Dhaula Kuan and offices and teaching activities shifted to this campus in 1983. In the south campus, colleges are more scattered. Shaheed Bhagat Singh College, Sri Venkateswara College, Ram Lal Anand College, Lady Shri Ram College, Lady Irwin College, Jesus and Mary College, Motilal Nehru College, P.G.D.A.V. College, Maharaja Agrasen College, Dyal Singh College, Ramanujan College, Gargi College, Acharya Narendra Dev College and Deshbandhu College are some of the colleges that make up the south campus of the Delhi University.

Miranda House, Kirori Mal, Hansraj, Sri Venkateswara, Lady Shri Ram are amongst the most sought after colleges of University of Delhi today.
The university has 65 colleges that have liberal courses in humanities, social sciences and science courses. Twenty five of these colleges are affiliated with the South Campus while the others are to the North Campus. These colleges except two, Lady Irwin College and Institute of Home Economics, are undergraduate colleges. The number of colleges under the university goes up to 77, if the colleges that run professional courses are included.
Though the colleges are all constituent to the University of Delhi, depending on the funding and the management the colleges can be classified into three types: university-maintained colleges, trust colleges and Delhi government colleges. Of the Delhi government colleges 12 are 100% funded by the government of the NCT of Delhi and were founded in the late 1980s or early 1990s.
Undergraduate admissions[edit]
The academic session starts on 21 July while admissions for the regular courses are held in June–July. Admission in courses that are done through entrance examination follow a different schedule.
Admission to all the undergraduate courses (except the professional ones) is carried out by each college though the system and schedule is common and announced by the University each May. In the year 2011, the university decided to do away with the requirement of preregistration for admission,[31] but as of 2012 the pre-admission form is back.[32]
The university does not hold entrance exams (except for Bachelor of Business Studies, Bachelor of Business Economics, Bachelor of Finance and Investment Analysis & B.A. (H) English) but scores of higher secondary school examination are taken into consideration.
The colleges decide the cut-off percentage (minimum marks required) for their courses and is released by the university on predecided date as cut-off lists. Once the cut-off percentage is released, any student who has the requisite percent can approach the college and seek admission within a number of days. Separate cut-offs are announced for aspirants belonging to Other Backward Classes with some relaxation in cut-off percentage given to them as compared to candidates belonging to the General Category.[33] If seats are available, university announces second cut-off list and calls for admission. Up to five lists are announced. If seats are completely filled in certain courses, no further cut-off of that course is announced.
Admissions based on excellence in extracurricular activities and sports is carried out after conducting trials by the colleges. Students need to apply separately to each college for being considered for admission under these categories.
The university reserves seats for students who are physically handicapped or belong to the Scheduled castes or scheduled tribes as per government policy. Students who seek admission under these categories need to register centrally in the University of Delhi. The university allocates the course and college to these students based on their choice and availability

"I bought these for my 5 year old daughter. I'm trying to teach her the importance of writing thank you notes when she receives a gift. They are adorable! Have always loved Tiny Prints and appreciate their fabulous customer service. Would recommend!"
"This card was perfect for my baby shower thank you notes! I really liked the quality of the paper - good, thick card stock. I also ordered the matching return address labels. I love how everything coordinates - it makes it more personalized and special."
"i ordered the coordinating invitations for my sister's baby shower, so getting the thank you notes was a no brainer. they are so adorable! like the invitations, they are modern, whimsical, fun, and fit my sister's personality. the weight of the paper is heavy and the print quality is superb. i opted to personalize the envelopes, too. one less thing she will have to worry about! delivery was quicker than expected."
"I have ordered from Tiny Prints numerous times, and I have come to expect a high standard in terms of design and overall quality. These cards did not disappoint. The paper seems thick, the image is cute, and the customized print came out lovely - "Thank You Hugs from [Dad's name], [Mom's name], and Baby K!" Printing and shipping was fast, as well. Love them!"
"We personalized this card to use as advice cards for our friend's baby shower. We put "Advice for mommy" on the top of the card. Then the guests all wrote little notes of advice for the baby. Our guest of honor loved the idea."
