What does pingler do?

Hi everyone,

I 've heard several people mention that they've used pingler when they are trying to get their sites indexed. My understanding is this site "makes google aware" of a site you may want to get indexed, etc.

Can someone give a better explanation as to what "pinging" a site does?

Much appreciated,

JB

  • Pinging is just sending a packet out to another site that says "Hey, my site's been updated. Check it out!"

    The recipient of the ping (technorati, feedster, blo.gs...) will then crawl your rss feed and you'll get a link. Google picks up the link.

    • If you are don't use ping sites like:

      Pingler.com or even
      Pingomatic.com

      then you are waiting too long to get your pages indexed into the Search Engines.

      Whenever I ping one of my pages, I can get Yahoo & GoogleBot to that specific page within 60-90 seconds.. Thats how well pinging works..

      Hope this helps
