Power of Tag and Ping

We talk about a huge social phenomenon that is hitting the internet as we speak- and how  you can take advantage of it to generate high quality backlinks to your sites, promote your web presence, and reach more customers beyond your existing network. This new emerging trend, called “Social Bookmarking” is taking the internet by storm.  Just like how blogs used to be the hottest trend a year or two ago, Social Bookmarking is quickly becoming one of the biggest concepts ever introduced to the internet

The “Tag And Ping” method you are about to discover is born out of this new social trend. If you are like me – trying every possible way to get links to your websites – you are frustrated with all of the “quick fix” methods for generating backlinks (that work for awhile and then quickly cease work)

You might even be frustrated that Blog And Ping is no longer as  effective as it used to be in getting your sites into the search engines. Tag And Ping can be used to promote virtually any type of website - including websites monetized with Google Adsense, your own products or even other people’s products. It can help get your websites spidered and indexed in the search engines. Towards the end of 2004 and early 2005, a huge phenomenon hit the internet marketing world.  It was called “Blog And Ping” (aka. Blog & Ping, B&P, Blogging & Pinging).

Blog And Ping involved 2 simple steps:

1. “Blogging” - posting content to a blog; and
2. “Pinging” - sending signals to notify blog & RSS directories

Since blogs and RSS (Really Simple Syndication) was extremely “hot” at that time, search engine spiders were on a rampage to index blogs, RSS directories and blog directories.  This made Blog And Ping even more effective.

Today, the best method for getting the search engines to spider, index, and rank your websites, is still having high quality inbound links pointing to your sites. And not just high quality inbound links… but high quality inbound links from authority sites.

What is “Tag And Ping”? Similar to “Blog And Ping” - which involves “Blogging” and then “Pinging” - Tag And Ping involves “Tagging” and “Pinging”.

Basically, it’s a 2 step-process:

1. You create tags on your blogs or on social bookmarking services.
2. You ping or update various social bookmarking services to visit, index those tags and include links back to your sites.  (Some services don’t require this.)

The 2 Types of Tags You Can Create
There are literally hundreds of uses of tags out there, but for the purposes of this book (“Tag And Ping”), there are 2 major types of tags that you can create:

1. Tags You Create On Your Own Blogs  and
2. Tags You Create On Your “Authority Site Network” On Various  Social Bookmarking Services

Both methods of Tagging And Pinging are equally powerful, and I suggest that you do both for maximum effectiveness
