Does Everyone out there Know About Pinging?

If not, you NEED to start doing this to your posts. Basically, every time you post, you need to "ping" your post.

What is pinging? Well, basically, you ring a digital bell to the search engines (ping) that says that you just updated your blog. When the search engine "hears" that you just updated your posting, you get bonus points for your site that leads to a higher page ranking that leads to more potential traffic. Basically, the fresher the content, the more search engines like it.

There are a couple of sites out there that will help you ping to multiple sites automatically. Just pick a couple that you like and follow their directions. Only pick those that will ping you for free, as I can see no good reason to pay for this particular service when there are so many sites out there that do it for free.

CAUTION: Only use a couple of sites, as many of them are redundant in where they submit.
