sing BlogThis!

Using BlogThis! is as easy as installing it!

The first thing you need to do is go to the website you wish to get indexed. In this example, I am wanting to index my website about commodities investing and will be using my commodities investing blog as a way to do this quickly.

Ideally, your website will have many different pages. For many of you, you have been creating pages using Traffic Equalizer or Traffic Generator. The key here is to blog from different pages each time.

Go to one of your pages and highlight an area of text. You do this by running the mouse over the text with the left mouse button held down.

For the typical blog and ping method, your blog will only be visited by spiders and not by real people, so the text you highlight is not important. (For those that want to use their blog as a website or other business tool as well, you will want to read Chapter 8 to learn how to make your blog acceptable for people and not just bots.)

Next, just click on the BlogThis! link that is either in your Google toolbar or that you added earlier.

You will see that a title has been placed in the title field and a URL has been placed in the URL field. Additionally, you will see the text that had been highlighted in the website is now in the body of the blog. You will also see a URL link in the body text.

Having links in both the URL field and the body will help you get indexed more quickly.

Now you have to determine which blog you are adding content to. In this case, the material is for the Commodity Investing blog, so you would click on the expand arrow and then click on Commodity Investing. BlogThis! will refresh quickly and then you post by clicking on the Publish button in the upper right hand corner.

You will then see a “Done” page that shows which blog you have posted to. Now that you have fresh content, it is time to ping!
