Marketing Your Blog With Trackbacks

I have found a great explaination about trackbacks which are an essential part of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and to attract more readers to your Blog.

A trackback is the automated process of notifying a blog or site that you linked directly to one of their posts.

Some blogging platforms automatically create a trackback when you link out to a post . Others require using the trackback field to ping their blog.

Once a trackback is created, the blogger will need to verify the link (like a comment) before it will show up on their blog. Once your trackback is approved, your link will display in their comments section.

If the blog has a high enough google rank, this can help your SEO and also bring traffic your way.

This is also a great way for you to link out to other bloggers, and give their readers a way to find relevant posts on your blog!

Where to Find A Bloggers Toolkit

Keisha one of my favourite Bloggers who runs a team over at  'We Blog Better', has compiled a very comprehensive list of Blogging Tools and Resources.  A requirement of anyone who is intending to take blogging seriously.

I would call it a Bloggers toolkit.

I am so impressed, as she has thought of absolutely everything.

I do wish this list had been available when I started blogging as it would have saved me quite a lot of time trawling the net. Never mind, I am still using it to improve my sites.

I do hope you find it useful, in fact you will find it more than useful!!

Er...don't forget to pop back here, to nosy as my notepad. ! LOL

Keisha is always available to help with any questions.

Well, it is an online inspirational Christian cafe called The Faith Lounge
