This is a great post, and some may not understand how important this info is. Bloggers who are worried about spam commenting can moderate there comments manually also. This is what I do if I feel a comment is spam and they are trying to linkback, because their link isnt going to do my readers or blog any good.

I like your blog because I learn everyday something new and meaningful. As soon as I receive your posting I try it out. It then usually makes sense and easy to understand and implement.

Richard, just enter your blog url, to promote your blog.

I’ve tried to find ‘options’ on wordpress but can’t find that option! Can anyone help?

THanks for the advice. I’ll use the plug in for my blog i just created!

Most interesting. It’s obvious that you care about the success of your readers and members. This is one of the best explanations I’ve found regarding a pingback or trackback.

Hi Kenneth

This post has me mind swirling. Maybe I am getting too old. Maybe becos I am getting older, I dread that i have to learn new things. But if it will do what it says to increase traffic, I will do it!

Thank you for these tips, it all makes sense, and I will be trying this out as well as some of your other suggestions.

Great information Kenneth. Building incoming links is very important for your SE rank and driving traffic. Your instructions are concise and easy to follow and should make it very easy for new bloggers to implement. I also use a wordpress plugin called CommentLuv, which will post a link to the commentors lastest blog post.

You can download CommentLuv here:

KEN WAZZZZZZZ UP! ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND. GOD_BLESS YOU MY YOUNG FRIEND. Heres a blog for use http://tmobil8.wordpress.com

Thanks for the lessons in your blog. They are very helpful and I am going to be using what I am learning here. This is a good explanation since I get confused using trackback links. I spent a lot of time reading the Word Press forums and help sections and this explains it well. I am going to write about this on my RocqueMarketing.com site, too.
I will even attempt the mighty trackback.

I have comment luv on some of my blogs but not on this one yet. Perhaps I will add it.

Great discussion here in the comments. It has been fun to read.

Rocque

Great stuff, and simple to follow and utilize. These simple ideas help all of us.

Very useful advice. Thanks

Thanks for the useful information on your blog.
I have been here for only five minutes and have
learned so much. You have so many helpful tips.

I will certainly be applying some of them.
I will also be back to learn more.

Wishing you all the best,
Marsha

Thank you very much! I knew about these chips from seminars, but to me they for some reason seemed unimportant. I will utilize now.

Good write up my friend! Thank you.

Track Backs can be an amazing feature to your WordPress blog that you should include.It will increase your links and you will see your traffic go up.

Hey Kenneth just wanted to see who posted. Keep up the great work buddy!!

Ho Kenneth,

Thanks for a super blog. Is there a way that I can use pingback in a blogger.com blog?

Kenneth,

I don’t know if we have the same WP version but I was reading you ping/trackback and would like to activate it is my. Problem is I can’t find the Options >> Discussion tab in my WordPress (note I have version 2.5.1, I guess)

Joseph

I’m sold :)) +1

Great article for pingbacks! I will have to check my blog to make certain I am set.

Thanks to Kenneth for creating LeadsLeap.com
Content was King. Now “Unique content is King”. I am sure all of us will benefit from this valuable post about Blogging.

Thanks Kenneth.

I love Firefox and am psyched about the Firefox SEO Extension! I also happen to be plugin-crazy and appreciate the Do Follow Plugin suggestion.

I appreciate you.

Very good info about pingback. I will try to activate it for my blog and link it to yours. Thank you, Kenneth!

Great advice. I know nothing about the internet. I have one of the best compensation plans in the world as far as my business goes, but its hard for me to find like minded individuals interested in a franchise.

http://www.startbusinesssite.com has all the info on how easy it is to start a business!

Hi Kenneth
I have been trying to get my head around pingbacks and trackbacks, a bit confusing to say the least,I checked out the “excellent tutorial” link further up this page and would like to say how good the tutorial is,with a few reads I think I am going to finally get the hang of it.
Thanks for the link
Colin

Great information! Being a newbie to this can be frustrating, but you’ve laid it out for us1 Thanks!

Pingbacks and trackbacks have always been a bit of a mystery to me, thanks to your great tutorial above they no longer are. I have also installed Do Follow on my blog.

I particularly like the advanced URL cloaking available in Leads Leap - it’s worth the membership just for that!

Thanks for the link and all your help.

I like this feature, but I’m only able to use it on certain sites. I haven’t been able to successfully perform a pingback as of yet. I couldn’t get the trackback or linkback to work on this site. I have Dofollow installed as well. I have been able to get the trackback feature to work on a few sites though. I have a lot of homework to do, but this is definitely worth learning about.

just added the “do-follow” plugin to my WP blog. i guess i’ll see what happens in the next coupla hours…

I appreciate this post as it allows us to continue to grow and stretch our networks with value.

Hi,
Thanks ken, as always I continuing learning and this the main reason i keep reading your blog.

At the mean time I would like to receive comments about my blog:http://alfonsoruizbiz.com/blog

God Bless,

Hello every one, and great article, found it interesting, only thing i could say is you should have actually put a few pingback links up as a example, like most legacy article & blogging systems supply there own track back link but they can be rather hard to find sometimes ^_^ But its all good as I don’t need a example I just thought the others might.

Thats very useful. Thanks

This is really great information on building additional traffic…which we all need.

I’m not sure that I know exactly how to do all this….

Well Randy, like you wasn’t sure but i just start to do it and its really works. good luck!

Good stuff. It is not implemented on my blog thedailyweight.info

Most blogs should come with this kinda stuff built in, so i wouldnt stress to much unless your using a legacy blogging system. Legacy systems require manual ping-back.

sorry for the double post, has anyone checked up on recent releases of wordpress? i think it now ships with auto ping-back/track-back gear.

bit to busy atm to check my self.
http://www.jamiesgalacticblog.com

see that blog there that’s one of my heavily modified wordpress blogs, it ping backs automatically and i haven’t installed anything and that’s a ancient version.

anyway brb kinda busy lol

Ken,

Best info on pingback or trackback. Now everbody knows how important backlinks are to SEO get trageted traffic. If you have targeted traffic you can have chance to sell anything !!

it may have been the best info if it had a awsome sample like this one lol

Hi Kenneth,

Great information, I applied all in your post.

Just yesterday I purchased the Ultimate Blogging Theme from this 15 year old Kid who besides the highly optimized themes for a WordPress blog provides some videos on how he monetizes and tricks that made him rank well in Google and is making him tones of money. He sure makes the “Gurus” who advocate recycled tips about blogs look bad.

I honestly think this info is a must for anyone trying to make it on the net. Personally I have many static websites but now I am paying attention and changing most of them into blogs. This is why I came here to read your great info

See this Kid here how he does it with free example sites he owns …just unbelievable. http://www.nicholasmancini.ws/ultimatebloggingtheme.com

Cheers!
Nicholas

Nicholas that theme is just a ad sense theme mm, sorry but there’s 100’s of those out there for free, you just got ripped by a 15 year old kid that probably got a hand from his high traffic neighbor. I actually have 1000 word press themes that look extremely similar. (plus as a programmer i must add his theme is rather dull) see a theme has to be unique while at the same time servicing your needs plus your visitors needs. His themes failed miserably, I ran away crying mummy.

just a tip for the noob’s;) Oh oh and I give away themes claiming riches all the time, just go here http://www.galactica-digital-shop.com

Hi,
As I’m a newbie, I’m not sure I fully understood all this ping/track stuff, but I will work on it.
Meanwhile, I have added the “dofollow” plugin into my website, Let’s see it at work..

hello Dorin,

its ok to be a newbie, no shame in it.
Anyway m8, a simple way to look at it is dofollow: alters the code that is default in a wordpress blog which tells search engines not to follow your article posts. see each post is posted with a default meta tag type code.

Yes kenneth, As you mentioned pingback/trackback to get more links and contents for your blog is important in online business.With this You simply drive traffic to your blog, using blog url. For SEO it’s also useful !! Comments of other members are also found useful here.

there are heaps of tools out there it can get really confusing, thanks for that resource:) , its always good to have multiple resources so you can match facts.

I really enjoy reading the Leadsleap stuff…I find it very entertaining. I agree a wordpress blog is the way to go. I’ve gotten back in the saddle and have been posting fresh daily content, and I can see daily progress of it climbing in Google.
I really do believe a content filled wordpress blog is better than a garden variety website with simpple keywords, meta tags etc etc…The search engines come back often to spider and index blogs because the content is always updating…This is why they can outdo a “static” website.

Great article. I have read so much about pinging, but never anything so clear. I was wondering why I was seeing so many highlighted links everywhere. Now I know that’s a nofollow link per the SEObook plugin that I have installed on my Firefox…

Thanks for enlightening me on a subject I’ve been wondering about. I’ll have to double check all my sites now.

Liz N.

Please tell me how to open DoTracback/PingBack, IE can not open & Windows can’t find which file to open it. Vista IE8 Norton 360 2.0. I did not see operationg system requirements. Thank you for the valuable informations whih I can’t hardly wait to try.

Quick reply is greatly appreciated. Sorry about the confusion, my question pertains to Dofollow Trackbacks Plugin download which IE can not open for my system. Once again thank you for the valuable information, I am eager to try this out. I wish to write a comment to let our readers know that I advocate “DoFollow” on my blogs. Thank you Kenneth.

In the past few months, since January 2008, I’ve been trying several traffic tips that I’ve ran across in my venture to create an online business.
It can be difficult to find information that you can apply immediately and see immediate results. Thanks for the post on how to use trackback/pingback. This will be my test to see what happens.
In a case like this where I’m creating a pingback/trackback, would it be feasable to use say a feedburner link. I’m still researching how feedburner works, and how it can also be applied.

Hi,
After I post something on a blog, I get a lot of pingbacks, but when I follow those links those sites seem to consist of nothing but pingback links. Are these good sites to be pinged from?

http://www.sunil.net

Well, I finally figured out how this Feed burner works.
I also figured out how to activate the ad sense feature as well.
Sunil, the ping backs your talking about, are you noticing them as traffic to your blog? Or is that something thats auto generating because of the track back links left behind by comments on your blog?

I’ve found that a lot of spammers use trackbacks to unrelated blogs to get traffic… not cool.

Thanks for sharing this. I never really knew the benefit of using this feature. It didnt seem to do anything for me. But I agree that Wordpress is very search engine friendly and you also need to use your own hosted Wordpress blog, not one hosted by Wordpress themselves.

As always Kenneth, by sharing your insights with us you make the online world a better place Keep it up!

I didn’t realize that this could affect you. it sounds worth it to get a domain and install wordpress. It’ll just take a while, I’m just a beginner.

Hi Kenneth,

This is for anyone who can answer. I want to be clear.

I can get a pingback/track back to my blog simply by posting my comments here?

Does any1 have to click on my link? Should I click on my link? Or is it automatic?

Thanks in advance.

SolarGoddess

I know tracback is a very good tool but just cannot use it. When I clicked here on trackback link, nothing happened..!? No url to fill up, nothing… What is done wrong? Thanks.
Teodor

Ok, I got it thanks to your great advice in this post. Now I have a trackback to this post. I really appreciate your job here.
Best regards,
Teodor

A very interesting post that every blogger or website owner should know.

I used a do follow wordpress plugin in my blog and used akismet plugin to stop spam comments. It works well.

Great post… Now I got the use of trackback. Thanks for share it

I’m going to set up this do follow deal on my blog. I’m still a little confused on how to do it but I did download it to my blog. With all that said I advocate the do follow link.

I’m a believer. My stats across the board for every country has jumped more than 200 % since starting to use trackbacks and pingbacks. I used to have trouble getting Canadian Visitors.
10 per month was pretty sad. Now there are over 1800 per month.
I used to also get maybe 1 or 2 visitors per day from overseas.
Now getting 100-200 from each and every country.

Mind you I also started using Tags. Tags has bumped up my search engine responses to 87 per day. Not bad for starting all this a couple months ago. Mind you I’m not even making one sale yet. But I’m sure that will fall into place.

Kenneth,
Thanks for providing great information. I’m glad I came across you on the internet. I just started using my wordpress blog and I’m still learning the features. This post gave me some great insights and I just downloaded the do follow plugin. Thanks again for the great advice.

Greetings Kenneth, Thomas Richmond here, its been awhile since last, noticed my ad needed to be updated but anyway i want to wit you and your family a Happy New prosperious year my friend. Best Regards Thomas R. http://bizzyblogz.biz CEO

Hi Kenneth

This is really useful.

I’m new to LeadsLeap, but I have a few sites and blogs up and running and I never was quite sure about pingback. So now I know.

I’ll have to see what else is going on in your blog now!

all the best

L
Oh - and I’ve Tweeted this blogpost too.

Thanks Kenneth, I have been looking for good instructions on how to use pingback/trackback. I knew there was a reason I have stayed with you so long I love your website and you blog is invaluable to me. I learn a lot from you.

“Wordpress blog, by default, has “NoFollow” trackback/pingback link. If you own a blog and would like to advocate “DoFollow” for trackback and pingback, you can install Dofollow Trackbacks Plugin.”

Any one have they blog with pingback/trackback dofollow enable?

And what if you’re on Blogger w/ Firefox instead of WP? How does one pingback in Blogger, other than throwing a link to a blog inside the post, which the original post author may or may not see?

Thanks for your info kenneth,any one have software to pingback/trackback blog?http://hotforexreviews.com

Hi Kenneth,
I always find you information and your willingness to give such information freely a credit to your good nature.

Thanks for shedding light on the pingback trackback issue. I have been receiving notifications from my blog about it but did not know what it was about. Thanks for shedding the light. As a gesture of my appreciation I have included a link to my blog in this comment. Just Click on my name to be taken to my blog. Add me as a do follow person. LeadsLeap rocks!!

You’ll be hearing from me.

Good Stuff! Thanks for the info… Background Check Reviews

Great article, thanks for summarizing this…I guess it only works if you are using wordpress though? Could I do this in my Joomla website?

There’s always new information surface and good thing we need to know it. Pingback/trackback are the strategy to apply constantly to get better result. Can this be apply to Hupages?

Hi Kenneth,

Many thanks

Hello Kenneth,
All this blogging lingo - No-follow, Do-follow, was news to me; however, I finally took the plunge into blogging, created this blog, installed the do-follow plugin, I even installed his logo on my blog. Whether I am a “do follow” believer, I am too green to know but time will tell. Also, as a LeadsLeap member, I am trying to learn the pingback - trackback stuff. Thanks Kenneth for all your educational posts.
Please visit my new blog Across
The Web and your valued comments would be greatly appreciated.

how many trackbacks should you have per post?

Hi, Kenneth

Just drop by to express my appreciation to your useful information! I’m still very new to this pingback-trackback stuff. I will always come back to your blog again for tips :p

Great job!
Thanks again!

I read this article and had to apply the plug in right away. I love the content you provide and look forward to reading more of the blog!

Are you using this plugin yourself?
I will test this trackback do-follow plugin on my blog!
