Ping, To Get Your Blog Noticed!

It is important to Ping, to get your blog noticed on the Internet if you want to get the most out of your blogging efforts.

The World Wide Web is a dynamic sphere, and focuses on the millions of websites, blogs, articles, and videos, that are constantly being revised and updated.

It’s extremely important to get, and to stay on top of the traffic game with your blog or website.

To ensure that the search engines have all your new blog posts and updates, you can ‘Ping’ to get your blog noticed by the major directories, every time you add a new post to your blog.

When you send the ping to get your blog noticed, you don’t need to totally rely on the search engines to do all the work to find your new or updated blog post.

The ping, identifies you to the search engines and aggregation services, such as social bookmarking websites, within a matter of seconds; and tells the search engines that you made a change.

The ping flags your blog, and invites the search engines, and service providers, to come visit you site.

The notification basically says; Hey guys, I just made a change to my blog, come on by and check it out!  The ping serves as an invitation to them, to visit your site.

When the ping service receives an appropriate ping signal from a website or blog, it’s recognized as a confirmation that something has been updated or changed on that blog or website.

The ping service then visits the blog or website, and immediately indexes any newly discovered content.

This is especially effective with Google’s search engines, if you have your blog hosted on blogger.com.  When you send a ping to get your blog noticed on blogger, the search engines arrive almost immediately.

When you consider the fact that the search engines have several million blogs to sort through daily, it’s important that every time you make a change, you should ping  to get your blog noticed.

Bloggers have the ability to actively ‘ping’ an update message to all of the major directories.

This means that the search engines, do not need to visit blogs on a regular basis to check for new changes.

The blogger takes the initiative to inform the search engines when changes happen.   This means the search engines are more efficient in reporting updated links when they occur.

I recommend using either of the following:

PingMyBlog.com located at http://pingmyblog.com
Autopinger located at http://autopinger.com

Both provide excellent timely results however, DO NOT submit your URL more than once, and then remember to allow the site to complete pinging before closing your browser.

If you take the initiative to ping to get your blog noticed, your blog will always be indexed in a timely manner and your blogging efforts will be rewarded.

Is Bing Better Than Google?

bing_logo-3All over the internet, the question is being asked, is Bing better than Google?

You may or may not be aware of Microsoft’s latest challenge to the Google and Yahoo search engines; Bing.

If you are not, I recommend downloading it and giving it a try so you can determine the answer for yourself.  It is available at www.bing.com and it replaces Microsoft’s Live Search.

Is Bing better than Google?  You be the judge!

Listed below are some obvious differences.

  • The Bing search engine displays fewer results. It understands what you are searching for and does not display as much ambiguous information.
  • When you put your mouse pointer on the right side of the search engine results, Bing conveniently displays a preview of the web page along with links at the bottom of the frame.
  • Bing changes it’s background image on a daily basis. When your pointer hits certain hidden areas on the image, additional information is displayed, about each different part of the image that you hover over.
  • Bing’s video search allows you to watch a video without leaving the page. When you hover your mouse pointer over each thumbnail image, the video is instantly activated with no apparent delays in loading.
  • Search results are sometimes also placed into additional categories.
    A search for Britney Spears will list in the left side of the search page the additional categories: News, Songs, Tickets, Tour, Albums, Biography, Images, and Videos.
  • The “Related Searches”, and “Search History”, are also conveniently located beneath these categories.
  • By clicking the Enhanced View link, Wikipedia searches are displayed inline,  in the search results, without having to leave the search page.
  • The Bing homepage loads lightning fast in your web browser probably because  The logo and search box load first.
  • The background image can be shut off if desired, and on the bottom right of the home page, you can review past photo backgrounds.
  • An Explore function for Images, Videos, Shopping, News, Maps, and Travel is conveniently located on the Bing main page.
  • Bing has search engines for health, shopping and travel, that give very specific detailed information, and answers, in their search results.

One feature Google has over Bing, is that Google recognizes misspellings and is sophisticated enough to return the correct results in most instances.

Bing doesn’t seem to be able to recognize misspelled words as of this date and gives no search results in these instances.

It’s currently unclear whether Bing will ultimately succeed, however, it will keep Google and Yahoo on their toes.    The new competition for PPC will also keep Google paying attention to their base.

Successful Joint Venture Secrets

Getting into a successful joint venture is a great way to give your business a surge, especially if your business is in its infancy.

With all the benefits of a successful joint venture, some business owners tend to become over enthused, and rush into the first venture they see.

One secret to a successful joint venture is obvious enough; don’t rush into a poorly planned venture.

You are doomed from the start if you rush headlong into a badly executed, poorly planned joint venture.

Before you leap into something, formulate a clear objective.

Part of a successful joint venture is having both partners on the same page.  You must know what you expect to achieve from the beginning.

If your business partner has an objective the same as yours, or at least one that will compliment the goal you have set up, you’re on your way to a successful joint venture!

It is imperative to pick the right partner.

To have a successful joint venture, both parties should benefit greatly.  If both parties have similar goals, and both of your ideas coincide with the bottom line, you have the right partner.

However, if you discover that your wants are not mutual, you will probably be battling with clashing ideas somewhere down the line.

If this is the case, scrap the deal, and look for another successful joint venture partnership.

When you are planning the joint venture, decide on what negotiating tactics to use. 

It’s important to understand and agree on every aspect of the joint venture.

Be honest about what’s on your mind and communicate this to your partner.  This is important to eliminate any confusion.

A successful joint venture is exactly like a marriage.

You need a good foundation built on trust, honesty, and understanding.

Like a marriage, the real work starts when the honeymoon is over!

A successful joint venture alliance is rare, valuable, and is something to cherish.

A Successful joint venture can work for everyone concerned, when you understand exactly what’s involved, and work to make the relationship smooth sailing.
