This is a re-post of an old post that I think is so important that I wanted to get it back to the top of my blog:

One of the core elements to better SEO is building back links. In fact, I think the only 3 things you really need to do is have the "Best Keywords", the "Best Content" and the "Best Back Links".

Notice that I did not say the most keywords, the most content, and the most back links. Although, this is debatable, quality should most always win out over quantity.

That's why I want to remind you about building the best performing link wheels using RSS feeds. RSS feeds can be targeted just like keywords and content. This will result in better back links and targeted traffic.

If that makes some sense to you, then be sure to visit RSS Mage and LinkWheel Sage for the low down at www.rssmage.net,

Why You Need "Post + Ping" for Blogging

This is a "re-post: of literally one of the very first articles I ever wrote and posted to Ezine Articles many years ago. This is still good advice and recommended for anyone interested in learning how to blog. The original articled is posted below...

It does not matter if you are blogging as a pastime or blogging related to marketing a business online, you always need to remember to "ping" your blog updates on a regular basis. This is important because not all blogging platforms have automated pinging services.
If you are new to the concept of blogging, pinging is even more important. Many people start blogs scratching their heads and wondering why they never get any traffic to their blog. Just like commercial websites,blogs now have to be marketed through SEO optimization, press releases, social networking, directory submissions, word of mouth, and anything else that you can think of to create traffic.
One thing that works in favor of blogging is that weblog posts are considered timely and unique content. It is for this reason they are indexed quicker, bookmarked, and passed around to others with similar interests.
Blogging is also an easy way to get your feet wet in having an online presence, since you do not have to purchase domain names and hosting services. It also is a good exercise to learning some of the basics, maybe even a little HTML, although it is not necessary. There is an incredible amount of free tools and software available to help you get started.
Blogging is an excellent way to build traffic in an organic way to promote websites, as well. Since blogs are an informal way of communicating, they also are a way to build relationships and a good way to get and stay popular with your network. In effect, a ping for your weblogs is like a personal note or telephone call, and just a way of saying, "Hear I am and this is what's new in my corner of the world".
You also want to make sure that you stay on topic with the theme of your blog, and writing posts that are relevant. You will want to make frequent posts to build content for your blog, probably no less than a few times a week and make sure that you "ping" the update.
The way you build and maintain the information resources on your blog are also important to your efforts and success. You can join online forums, or do a search for help in building and maintaining your site with tips from other bloggers.
Social Bookmarking is also a popular way to network with other individuals that may be interested in your blog updates. You probably are aware of such services as furl.net. technorati.com, and del.icio.us.
A free service that allows you to automate your bookmarking is onlywire.com. The onlywire website allows you to create an account, and then insert your username and passwords for all the accounts you have at various bookmarking sites and "ping" these sites all at once.
Always make a point to "ping" as you "blog".

The Idea Behind RSS Linkswheels

Depending on the online business model, I have found many instances where it is possible to dominate organic search engine ranking by creating a few simple micro-blogs and connecting them together in a linkwheel using RSS feeds. This blog is an example of that process. One reason this still works is that the vast majority of the competition (new people entering online marketing) are taught to just mindlessly build thousands of links from social bookmarks, blog comments, and forums.

Building link wheels takes less time, and you do the work only once in most cases. Another advantage of link-wheels is that it's difficult for links from these sites to be characterized as spam. This is considered off-site SEO and it would be very hard for search engines to discriminate or downgrade links from social media websites and Web 2.0 sites. Even if things change dramatically in the future, the loss of these one-way links will not cause your main website, money sites, or target sites to be de-indexed.

So, an RSS link-wheel can be defined as simply building 5 to 6 "on topic" micro-blogs, using selective keyword-rich anchor text links as one-way links back to your main target site, and a one-way link connecting from each mini-site in a linear scheme.

[A > B > C > D > E > F > (+/- A)]

The operative phrase here is "one-way links". This graphic above illustrates the possibility of the last link looping back to the first website in the link scheme. This is what is called a "closed" link- wheel. The link wheels we will build will not be closed. Our linkwheels are also called "horseshoe" or "open" link wheels, since the last link is not completed to make a full loop. The reason for this will be discussed in future posts.

Note: Throughout this blog I will use "link wheel", link-wheel", and "linkwheel" interchangeably. I do not know if one is preferable over the others. I kind of like the way Linkwheel looks myself.
