How Do You Know If It Is Working?
The purpose of the blogging and pinging, as we have been doing it, is not to get your blog spidered, but to get your website spidered. So, before you really get started, I want you to go to Google.
In the field, put the following information:
allinurl:+yourwebsite.com
If your site has not yet been spidered, you will get a message that there were no results.
Wait about 48 hours after creating your blog and starting the blog and ping process and put the same code into the Google field. Now you should see something like this:

Instead of nothing being found, Google has found one page.
Try this again in a few more days, and you are likely to see something like this:

That’s right, 4990 pages have been spidered! And in under a week!
