It dont mean a thing if you aint gonna Ping!
When you have a blog it has to be viewed, without being viewed the blog then become pointless.
Getting people to view your blog is easy to some extent, you can tell your subscribers and mailings lists, tell anyone and everyone, then word of mouth should help get more readers.
But eventually you run out of people to tell, so getting a good search engine ranking for your relevant blog subject then becomes important.
Thats when you just have to ping !
So whats pinging, well I use Ping-O-Matic
Ping-O-Matic is a service to update different search engines that your blog has updated.
They regularly check downstream services to make sure that they're legit and still work. So while it may appear like we have fewer services, they're the most important ones.
Basically just by enter a few details about your blog they then "ping" them a sort of message to say your blog is being updated regularly ie. it contents nice new fresh content which makes your blog important.
Ping-O-Matic will ping upto 22 services for you in under 10 seconds, thats a whole lot faster than it would take you to automatically do this and best of all ITS COMPLETELY FREE !
They also give you a stats page where you can view the stats for your blogging and pinging.
And there is a great blog with lots of tips and help, what more could a blogger ask for.
You can visit each day and ping all the services again and again and again.
So remember when your blogging get pinging!
