I usually ping when I get new content on my site. I mean, I've heard it doesn't matter either way, but it only takes a minute or two, so what's the big deal?

Thanks

The man that does the scrapebox instructional videos (loopline?) recommends that you don't ping articles because the search engines will pick them up naturally and pretty quickly. If you rss ping them apparently it looks like they are "unnatural" and could look suspicious. I just thought I would ask for other people's experiences and consequences. Thanks for the responses - I'll give it a day or two and start an rss ping.

I think that every day is more difficult to index poor backlinks like forum profiles, directories pages, bad article directories, etc.. so its important to ping, create RSS feeds or whatelse to increase possibilities.

Your backlink count doesn't matter, what matters is how many are actually indexed.

You can use scrapebox to check how many are indexed or search for each URL in "quotes" in Google.

Usually with AMR blasts like this 10-30% or so will get indexed on their own. Honestly, pinging is very weak for increasing this, but I wouldn't get wild with the indexing. Aggressive linking CAN hurt your rankings for months. The common mistake is that people neglect the difference between the number of links rapidly built VS the number of links rapidly indexed.

If you're not building all of these links directly to your money site and want to increase indexing rates then instead of pinging I would suggest...

Linklicious
Backlink Energizer
SEO Fast Indexer
Social Bookmarking (software of your choice)
Tiered RSS Submission

Thanks

If Google doesn't 'naturally' find a link to my website then it's probably the type of link that I don't want pointing at me in the first place.

Yes you should ping them, sign up for linklicious.me

Also remember, although Market Samurai is the best independent search engine...but it doesn't mean it will crawl the entire internet. Hell, Google doesn't crawl even CLOSE to the entire internet...and thats GOOGLE.

Market samurai has to crawl the fraction of the internet that it can, plus re-crawl everything it already knows about...its not reasonable to think they are going to find all of your indexed backlinks.

Your wasting so much time worrying about that, when you could just put your links through an automated pinger, get your links crawled so that google adds them to its "Crawled Database" and then let them start helping your SERPS.

As soon as it crawls your links and it is added to Googles Crawled database, it will begin helping your SERPS, Google will then pick and choose which of these it wants to add to its "indexed database" which will make those links help you even more.

Thanks

That is what the scheduler feature is for in linklicious. You can set up 10k but schedule it to drip out at a safe rate.

What about say pinging a list of maybe 100 wiki links a week, or every 3 or 4 days?

Or would it be better to just bookmark all the links (tend to use Delicious) and then ping the rss feed?

If you have spun those articles into unique ones and then submitted to 450 directories then its worth pinging them but if they are all duplicate then don't do it.
