Is there a pinging tool to ping all sites at once
-
hi, i am just wondering if there is a tool that you can put on your toolbar that allows you to ping all the sites at once. The last thing i want to keep doing is to go through every single one and ping my article. I would like to find a tool that does it all for me, can anyone let me know if there is one out there.
many thanks

we get a great deal of traffic from huffington post as they run with a lot of our stories which is great, so a huge amount of traffic from there and from other sites. But i want to try and tap into the bookmarking sites as well as the ping services

i get a lot of traffic from stumble, digg, was getting a load of traffic from reddit but stopped using it as it was not the market i was going for.
what i would like to do is, to have a tool in my desktop where i can just ping to all the sites at once, and then have one where i can ping to all the bookmarking sites at once as well.

i bought one joomla plugin for the ping and it broke my site, was bringing up errors. i bought that a few weeks ago and sent the owners a few emails for support asking what the problem was and never received an email back. i contacted them again today and still not received any reply from them.
seems they are happy to take your money but not to reply.

Pinging is not the same as submitting your post to a social bookmarking site. There are other tools to do that.
Are you submitting to bookmarking sites now? Are you seeing any traffic from them in Google Analytics? If you're not seeing any traffic, I wouldn't worry too much about finding the perfect solution and I'd just spend your time focusing on the content itself.

thanks for that david, just tried it.

hi zachary. I have used ping o matic in the past, but i am looking for something that will ping all the major ping services as well as posting my info on all the bookmarking sites that are available. pingfm was a good one until they changed. I work in joomla so would not have a clue on how to write my own script to do this for me. many thanks

Is this for one of your Joomla sites? Have you searched in the extensions directory for Joomla? A search for [joomla bing] turns up plugins that will automatically ping services when you publish an article.

http://pingomatic.com/ is a very popular one. Keep in mind that many platforms such as WordPress do this automatically for you.
If you need a larger list, you should write your own script to do so. Pinging a list of URLs would be very easy to do. Ping O Matic should do the job, however.
As far as using a browser addon, why would you need that?

Direct To Site Traffic Decline
Hi Everyone, My company's site went from Http to Https and responsive design last year. After 6 months passed, we noticed a 40% decline from direct visits but revenue saw an increase. Could the 301 redirects from Http to Https cause the drop in direct traffic? Thanks!

Sitemap.xml Site multilang
HI all, I have some questions about multilang sitemap.xml. So, we use the same domain subdirectories with gTLDs example.com/pt-br/
Technical SEO | | mobic
example.com/us/
example.com/es/ How should I do the sitemap.xml in this case? I thought of three alternatives: Should I do a sitemap_index.xml to each lang and make categories for these sitemaps? Examples:
http://www.example.com/pt-br/sitemap_index.xml
http://www.example.com/en/sitemap_index.xml
http://www.example.com/es/sitemap_index.xml Should I do only one sitemap_index.xml covering all categories of all languages ? Examples:
http://www.example.com/sitemap_index.xml
http://www.example.com/pt-br/sitemap_categorias_1.xml
http://www.example.com/es/sitemap_categorias_1.xml
http://www.example.com/us/sitemap_categorias_1.xml Should I do a sitemap setting all multilang? <url><loc>http://www.example.com/us/</loc>
<xhtml:link <br="">rel="alternate"
hreflang="es"
href="http://www.example.com/pt-br/"

<xhtml:link <br="">rel="alternate"

Site Migration Questions
Hello everyone, We are in the process of going from a .net to a .com and we have also done a complete site redesign as well as refreshed all of our content. I know it is generally ideal to not do all of this at once but I have no control over that part. I have a few questions and would like any input on avoiding losing rankings and traffic. One of my first concerns is that we have done away with some of our higher ranking pages and combined them into one parallax scrolling page. Basically, instead of having a product page for each product they are now all on one page. This of course has made some difficulty because search terms we were using for the individual pages no longer apply. My next concern is that we are adding keywords to the ends of our urls in attempt to raise rankings. So an example: website.com/product/product-name/keywords-for-product if a customer deletes keywords-for-product they end up being re-directed back to the page again. Since the keywords cannot be removed is a redirect the best way to handle this? Would a canonical tag be better? I'm trying to avoid duplicate content since my request to remove the keywords in urls was denied. Also when a customer deletes everything but website.com/product/ it goes to the home page and the url turns to website.com/product/#. Will those pages with # at the end be indexed separately or does google ignore that? Lastly, how can I determine what kind of loss in traffic we are looking at upon launch? I know some is to be expected but I want to avoid it as much as I can so any advice for this migration would be greatly appreciated.

Severe Health issue on my site through Webmaster tools
I use Go Daddy Website Tonight. I keep getting a severe health message in Google Webmaster tools stating that my robots.txt file is blocking some important page. When I try to get more details the blocked file will not open. When I asked the Go Daddy peeps they told me that it was just image and backup files that do not need to be crawled. But if Google spiders keep thinking an important page is blocked will this hurt my SERPS?
