Contributing Guidelines

Hi there! I am Roopesh, a final-year student pursuing Electrical and Electronics Engineering at BSACIST. At present, I am responsible for managing this blog page. Before continuing with the contributing guidelines, I would like to talk about the motive of this blog.

This blog page aims to encourage students of BSACIST to write blog posts that will eventually improve their writing skills and it is a great contribution to the community.

Let me explain the guidelines to be followed when you're writing a post.

What should you know?

Write for our audience:

The maximum of our audience is students from various fields like Engineering, Finance, Mathematics, Arts and Sciences, etc. We don't have a limitation that your content should be disciplined to a particular field. You can belong to any branch of study. But our only concern is that your content should be a technical one. 

Craft a fresh article with relevant and practical takeaways:

The post or article must be original and have not been published elsewhere. Don't copy-paste the content from your existing blogs. Your post tells readers something new, follows a fresh angle, or offers suggestions on how to do something better. 

Create an engaging Introduction and Conclusion specific to your post:

The introduction is very important for any blog post. It should be engaging and relevant. Don't jump right away into the content without providing a good introduction.

Make it concrete:

Give examples, details, and metrics so that it will provide more insights to the reader.

Write just long enough to engage and enrich readers:

We don't have a word count goal. But write at least 100 words.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

How I can write and publish blog posts?

First I should know who you are and what content you're going to contribute. For that, you can contact me by writing an email.

Here's my email: roopesh.eee_2019@crescent.education

After that, I'll invite you via email to contribute to the blog page, which is hosted on blogger.


This is what the draft window looks like. There will be a title input, where the title of your blog goes on. Below that there is a toolbar for editing. It includes font, color, insert, etc. After that, there will be input for the content. I'll assume you already know this stuff.

Note: Don't include the title in the content input. As there's a separate area for the title.

What are the Styling guidelines?

We have some set of styling that should be followed across the site.
  • The font type that should be followed is Arial. And the font size is Normal.
  • Use Subheading and Minorheading appropriately.
  • If you have any quoted text for your post, you can add it at the top of the post.
  • Always include an image at the top of the page. It will act as a thumbnail for your post.
All the styling guidelines illustrated above are depicted in this pdf: Blog Page Example - Blogger

How I can configure the settings for SEO?


These are the things important for a web page to rank in browsers. So, ensure to fill this.

There are some important fields like Labels and Search Description. A label is for categorization. Fill in a word or two which is related to your content. Search Description is used for searching. You can fill up to 150 words as a search description.

Additional Thoughts:

Make sure to follow the instructions stated above. Don't hesitate in the process of writing a blog. I know creating content on your own takes time. There are times that I spend literally half a day writing a blog on my own. That doesn't mean I would not search on the internet. I refer to all other blogs which are relevant to mine before crafting on my own. So, take your time, and craft a masterpiece on your own. You know, writing this contributing guidelines page took me 2 hours. Good improvement though!

If you feel that you're weak in grammar use Grammarly. Always prefer to write on a computer than on a mobile phone.

That's all from my side. If you want to discuss anything with me, write an email. Here's my email: roopesh.eee_2019@crescent.education

Happy Writing!

PLASMONICS - A Vision of future

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) - related science and technology have recently spawned a brand new branch of research referred to as "Plasmonics" Plasmonics, also known as nanoplasmonics, is the creation, detection, and manipulation of signals at optical frequencies at nanoscale scale metal-dielectric interactions. Following the trend of miniaturizing optical devices, plasmonics finds applications in sensing, imaging, optical communications, and bio-photonics. Surface Plasmon Resonance in Bioanalysis For almost a decade, plasmonic imaging has been used to analyze single-cell activity. Although this approach is still in its early stages, its label-free and real-time benefits have piqued curiosity, and it has already been applied to extracellular and intracellular activities. However, as a freshly developed approach, plasmonic imaging has significant flaws that must be addressed before it can be widely used. First, plasmonic imaging’s imaging capacity needs to be improved. The ...
