To Ping or Not to Ping?

[Paul_Ed]

Hi,

Some people advocates pinging your backlinks so Google can find them, and then others say do not ping your backlinks so Google can find them naturally. And even some say it is better to boost your backlinks with "backlinks booster" or "backlink index express". Who's right? Who's wrong? And why?

Thanks,

My advice is to build backlinks on indexed platforms so you don't have to ping them like profile links. With indexed platforms, Google spider is going to visit them anyway so naturally your links will be found. And yes, pinging too much of your mass backlinks will do you harm.

To ping.. Pinging is also important because if you ping your new site or new post it is easier for the search engines to index your site, it is easier for them to know that you have a new post..

I do pinging also everytime I have a new post in my blog so the search engines can easily found/search my new post..
