Answer and Explanation:
In Spanish, the words por and para are commonly confused because of their similar meaning. Por and Para are usually used instead of 'for'. However, they are used in different situations.
There are different ways in which we can accurately use the preposition 'por' instead.
For example (por ejemplo):
To mention the reason behind a behavior
Because of - Por
To say Thank you
Thanks for… - Gracias por...
To indicate proximity (place)
Around here / near here - Por aqui
To indicate that someone is performing or has performed an action
Done by - Hecho por
