pinging backlinks

15 years ago

usually pinging means sending a message to a number of websites such as blog aggregators or SE to tell them that a page was refreshed.
check pingomatic.com

Why do you want to ping your backlinks? The search engines will spider them eventually.

Some people ping their backlinks, some don't. I'm one of those that does, since it only takes a few seconds and I figure there is a slight chance it helps search engines find the backlinks quicker. I use pingomatic to do it, although there are plenty of others. Simply put in the URL of your profile page, give it a name, and then hit the ping button. That's all there is to it.

I owe this info to a fellow warrior, I never thought about pinging links, but guest what?

It significantly helps, the links I pinged showed much faster than the ones I didn't ping...

you simply do this by using the same idea behind pinging blog posts, use pingomaic or pingoat, copy and paste the url of the page where your link is placed, and ping it as usual, that's it

I've been pinging my backlinks for years. It's wrong to think that
SE spiders will find all of your links. They will find most but what's
the point of building links if a percentage of them never get found.

I use this free multi url pinger by the people over at syndk8.-
Mass Blog Pinger from Syndk8 with XMLRPC Goodness.

You just enter all the urls where your backlinks live and the tool automatically
goes out and pings them all which saves you from having to ping each url one
by one. It's a huge time saver.

That seems like a great tool - thanks for sharing

Will this work well for Angela and Paul's backlinks? I know there is probably a percentage(I have no idea how high or low it is) of the profiles and such that we create that don't get indexed for months. I'd never even considered pinging my backlinks prior to this thread

Thanks

Yep. It works great for Angela's and Paul's type of profile
links. In fact these are the type of backlinks that really
benefit from being pinged because a lot of these high pr
sites literally have hundreds of thousands of indexed pages
or millions and there's so much going on that the SE spiders
can miss your profile page where you back link resides.

Hmm, I signed up but when I received the E-Mail to download it, it just took me back to the opt in page :confused: I really want this too - I wonder if they are aware of this problem?

  Yes, maybe we should use a mini site for that. Put all the profiles pages links on it and only ping the mini site. What about that ?

  I think with the volume of pings it gets from updated blogs alone, it wouldn't be noticeable. Speaking for myself, I'm not going to ping any more than 20 at one time

  Everytime a blog gets updated it gets pinged. Millions of blogs
  being updated everyday some several times a day equals hundreds
  of millions of pings a day
  
  I highly highly doubt google are going to notice anything strange atall.
  
  Even if the whole warrior forum started mass pinging we wouldn't even make
  a dent in amount of pings that go on each day.

  Pinging is a great tool for building back links and Google credit. This simple task can help you notify an assortment of search engines that you have brand new content on your blog This web based service (ping server) accepts messages in a certain format. XML-RPC is a remote procedure call protocol which uses XML to encode its calls and HTTP as a transport mechanism. Basically this information is used to make a listing of blogs with updated content. Thanks for sharing the post.....
  
  Thanks

I have been trying Angela's backlinks to drive traffic to an article ( I have about 30-40 done), but when I check the URL for backlinks using Backlink Watch - it says there are no links.

I have also posted about this problem, and been asvised to ping them.

I would like to ask exactly what page are you pinging? Is it the page where you create/edit your profile. Or is it the page where your profile is on view, with the links being "live"?

I'm not 100% sure, but I think that on some sites, once you have created you profile, the only way you can view your links "live" is to post a comment on their forum. If this is the case, how do you ping those links?

Thanks

Hey dj, you should ping your publicly viewable page where
your backlink is actually on and can be seen by everyone.

Some of the forum profiles you're referring to can only be
seen by people logged into the forum. In this case the only
way for your link to get indexed is to post in the forum but
I don't recommend this because it's called forum spamming.

Most of the sites don't require you to be logged into view
links and will show up on your profile page i.e

website.com/member/yourmembername

In this case you'd ping your publicly viewable member profile.

Will

Hi Amitywill,

Thanks for the advice.

I will have to go and get pinging!!!

Would the links get indexed eventually if you didn't ping them, as I notice that a few people say that they have never bothered doing this?

Eventually most of them might get indexed if you didn't
ping them however that's unlikely. Pinging them increases the
chances that they will get noticed and indexed which is good
because it means we haven't just spent time getting backlinks
which may never get found.

  From now on, I'm going to ping every new backlink I make using the multi url pinger Amitywill shared I usually do them in groups of 10+ anyway, so this is going to be a huge time saver and hopefully it'll get my links indexed quicker. Thanks again for all the useful info in this thread.
  
  Thanks

Thanks in advance.

I don't think such pinging software is exist.
