I know many people have worked their butts off building backlinks that never get indexed. Sometimes it may take 6 month’s (if ever) for your backlinks to be indexed.
I am impatient and I want all the backlinks I build found.

Get Your Links Indexed

A while back I wrote a blog post asking people How Do You Get Your Backlinks Indexed. I really did not get the answer I was looking for but, that is OK, I just waited for the results of my own testing. I was hoping someone would confirm my ideas on Pinging.

I have been Pinging backlinks for a while now but, could not guarantee that it was really adding up all my new backlinks. Our sites already had so many backlinks that I just wasn’t sure enough to tell you all about it.

Well we took a brand new site with ZERO backlinks & started to ‘test’.

Every place we left a link we pinged.
The result – more backlinks indexed and listed faster than ever before!

So here is what I have been doing.
If I post a comment on a blog, I take the link to that comment (or article) and Ping that permalink.

If I post on a forum and leave a link, I take that forum post permalink and Ping it!

These are the 2 easy ones. Of course if any of these links are DoFollow do NOT forget to ping them!!

Blog comments that are DoFollow & have Comment Luv are also a must ping!

If you have written a mini post in a forum (Like Our Blog Co-Op) where you have the perma link, perfect anchor text, your link in the conversation of the post, & DoFollow – Ping that baby!!
(I also ping NoFollow links)

I also have bookmarking sites that I ping after I have added new bookmarks. This step depends on the script the bookmark site uses. Some bookmark sites have changed and now your personal page is in script and then there is no use wasting your time pinging.

For those of you that are about to freak out saying that pinging will cause the site problems – calm down.

Most sites are set to ping every time there is a new post added. They are not normally set to ping a comment.

You are not going to be pinging the same site a million times in a row. Ping other sites only when you have left a link.

You do not really have to ping when you leave a comment here on my blog or make a post at The Internet Marketers Guild as I have our sites set to lessen the need to ping them yourself.

You can find the way that works best for you to get your comments pinged. You can either ping each site as you go by just having a ping tab open and ping as you make links, or you may want to just use a document to copy and paste all the perma links from post to take over and ping at the end of your link building.

For pinging I use Pingler because it pings 91 services. You can also take the services listed to your blog and have it automatically ping all of them when you make a new post. There again, most blogs do not send pings for comments so you will still need to ping for your baclinks in comments.

Many of you may already be familiar with Ping o Matic if you are more comfortable using this service then that is fine.

Ok, I could go into more detail about getting comments indexed faster but, that will be another post.

If you have questions please ask.
