Pinging Your Blog to Increase Web Site Traffic and Attract Prospects
Recently the term pinging has become much more relevant in the blogging and internet world. If you are involved in ecommerce you realize that increased website traffic or many visitors to your site gets more exposure to your product or service. You may have the best products, great graphics, and awesome content but if you don’t have people looking at it nothing will happen. Pinging your blog or website may be the answer.
Explaining the inner working of pings is not as important as the value of pinging so let’s just describe it as a way for the search engines to know when content of your site or blog is updated. If you would like a more technical explanation I advise you check Wikipedia The Free Encyclopedia which has a great article on pinging. It covers ping spam also which can be deadly to your site if you are accused of it. If you use our simple definition here and you have the gist of it you can pretty much deduct what ping spam is.
So, how do I ping the search engines and increase traffic to my website? If you are running a WordPress blog, which I highly recommend, you are in luck. Just check out the list of WordPress plug ins that they offer for your blog. You can find them on the dashboard section of your blog or you can Google WordPress Plug ins for a greater list. But wait! An even easier way is to download Jeff Johnson’s Free Traffic Getting SEO plug in which includes a very good plug in within it to not only help you in pinging the places you need to but gives you a way to not be labeled a ping spammer. This software is millions of times worth the price which is FREE.
In conclusion, I hope I have been able to first explain the importance of pinging to increase your website traffic and to get you more prospects. Secondly, my simple explanation should get your curiosity up and I hope you will do more research on pinging. And last I have given you a couple great places to pick up software which will make pinging much easier to do.
