One Click Multiple Blog Services Pinging Tools

Blog and Ping! Pinging lets dozens of services which specifically track and connect blogs to know you’ve updated so they can come check you out. I was using Pingomatic for several months, but maybe it has become so popular with bloggers, that it many times does not connect for me or works very slow. So what are alternatives to Pingomatic?

So I set out to look for alternative pinging services that ping or notify a number of blogging services that keep track of weblogs and publish them. By pinging, you let the services know that your blog has been updated and hence, they crawl and index your site, publishing your blog contents, thus increasing your blog’s popularity.

Remember pinging is important if you use feedburner feed since feedburner will come crawling around after you ping it and update your feed with the latest content. And based on its content other blog tracking services will update.

One Click Multiple Blog Services Pingback Tools

• Pingomatic - the most popular. Pings several popular services and specialized services. Create a bookmark for each ping url.

Top 10 Things You Need to Know

February 18, 2008 · Print This Article

When building your website you might not have a large budget to devote to website design or a designer, so the best option for you might simply be to use free website templates. However, consider the following benefits as well as drawbacks before you decide to take this route of website design.

#1 Many Website Templates are Free

This is of course one of the best benefits of free website templates because you will save money and still be able to have a professional looking website.

#2 Make Building a Professional Website Affordable and Easy

Free website templates also make website building simple. They are ready made templates so all you have to do is download them, add your own text, and all of a sudden you have a complete and professional website.

#3 Consistency

With free website templates you will be able to keep your entire website consistent with similar colors, templates, and design. This is important for your website because it will appear more professional and well put together.

#4 Require a “Designed by” link

A drawback is that you might have to place a "designed by" link on your web page that will give away the fact that you are using free templates. If you are not interested in this, then you will either need to look for free templates that do not require this link or go another route such as paying for template sets.

#5 Web Page Won’t be Unique

Keep in mind as well that if you use free website templates on your website, you will not have a unique location on the web. The reason for this is many other people will have the same template and website "look." If this doesn’t bother you or will not have a negative effect on your website then use free templates. If it will cause a problem for you then you should consider alternate routes.

#6 Fast

Another benefit is that with free templates you can build your web page fast. This means you will have your website up quicker and be able to attract customers quickly as well.

#7 Easy to Edit

Most free website templates allow you to edit them, change your copy and logos relatively easily and in a very short period of time.

#8 No Programs

To use free website templates, you do not have to have any special software or programs that you might need otherwise if you are designing your own website with html code.

#9 Downloadable

These website templates are downloadable so you can have them instantly without waiting. This saves a lot of time and will allow you to get work as soon as you want.

#10 Changeable

The great thing about these free templates is that because they are free, you can change them at any time you like to update the look of your website or just change the look to make it stand out more from a competitor’s.

How to eliminatehe click fraud problem

Click fraud has become a major problem for online marketers. If you participate on Google adwords campaigns or Overture, you must already pay a lot for your campaigns.

What is click fraud?

Click fraud is the deliberate clicks to PPC search engine ads for completely other reasons than expressing interest for buying the related products or services.

Google defines click fraud, or invalid clicks, as any method used to artificially and/or maliciously generate clicks or page impressions.
In simple words, Click fraud means that someone is cheating you and that you pay too much for your pay per click campaigns.
Who is doing that?

Three main groups click on pay per click ads, without real interest in the offered goods:

People who joined Google AdSense or other per click affiliate programs click on the ads on their own web site to make a little income. Often, these people cooperate with other webmasters to click on each other's ads.

Some unethical companies click on the pay per click ads of competitors to drive up their advertising costs.


Companies (often in India, Russia and China) hire people who are paid to click on ads.
Google and other search networks provide refunds to advertisers when click fraud has been discovered.

Google and Overture employ "fraud squads," or teams of people dedicated to fighting click schemes. But at least two marketing executives say such countermeasures are missing fraudulent clicks that are responsible for between 5 percent and 20 percent of advertising fees paid to all search networks.

This is a huge problem. There is no “pay per click” Company denying that click fraud exists. Web analytics companies estimates that the 50% of all click activity is fraudulent.

This means that your pay per click marketing activities are half effective as they could be because of click fraud.


Most advertisers are aware of the click-fraud issue but have not delved into it because of the technical complexities involved. Others are concerned that they could jeopardize their relationships with the powerful search networks if they complain too loudly.

One of the best ways to eliminate click fraud is using anti click fraud services such as ppctrax (www.ppctrax.com). They provide services like the below:

IP address capture.
IP address geographic Location.
User Agent (browser, bot etc.)
See exactly what keywords are generating your clicks
Date and Time stamp
System detects sudden click spikes from one or more IP addresses
Real-time email alerts at 80% and 100% of your account's transaction utilization
IP address history - alert you to prior offenders

Another similar service is “who is clicking who”:
