dot tk domains

So this will be a small post, just a brief follow up about nascarnews.tk. Generally I hear nothing good about .tk domains, or maybe its just that its more difficult to find a free host that will host that will host them. Due to the fact that spammers abuse this. This probably why I am not able to access nascarnews.tk from home on my att&t u-verse connection. Tried correcting that but, I dont have patience for something that will take more that 15 mins to fix, maybe some other day. Any way what I have noticed is that google will not index all the pages as they would regular site, it also takes twice as long to start showing impressions at least based on my experience.  At least the good news is that the pages to get indexed and impressions do start show up. I was exited to see it start happening first 5 impressions after weeks of none, the next day 16 impressions. Expecting more the next day I was let down, zero impressions =( also no clicks yet. Time will  tell though there is constant posts being made every hour.

Why you should use Google Plus

Most people I know shy away from Google Plus, because its not the most popular social media platform. Although some recent stats from last year say Google Plus is gaining on Facebook. Why use it though? Its more information that will be indexed by Google, we all want to rank high in Google. It would only make sense  to use their social media platform.

Here is something interesting I just tried. I have setup dorrdirectory.wordpress.com and have it forwarding its post to Facebook, Twitter, and Google Plus. As I have described  in some of my post regarding blogging automation.  Within 3hrs my Google Plus page was ranked 2nd after my first post.

 

I know that traffic for “dorr businesses” is low. It more of the speed in which it happened. Also what got placed there, It was first posted on WordPress.com then WordPress re-posted it on Google Plus. Other than fact we know Google will rank its own stuff higher, I kinda thought the WordPress.com post would rank higher because that is where that post came from.

So I recommend to use Google Plus if your promoting something, I would wait longer for the friends and family type of feel like Facebook.

Blogging Automation Revisited

So as you may have noticed in a previous post, I have been working on how to automate blogging among some of the top social media platforms. I have been starting at the top with WordPress.com, through the sharing feature with WordPress branching off to Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Linkedin, and Google plus. Then from there I found you can automate Tumblr to post to Friend Feed. This is all that I have found so far. If any one knows any other blogging platforms that can be easily tied in let me know. I have been interested in Blogger, but I could only figure out how to make post go from Blogger to Google plus not the other way around like I was hoping.

I was also wondering what you guys thought of Path. I have it setup, but to me doesn’t seem like a very good platform. A social blog on a phone?

So since I am fairly new to blogging if anyone know of more blogs that be easily tied in. Or passably  know of different way please let me know. I find blogging automation very interesting, that you can make just one post and have it get set to all these blogs at once. Thanks for your help!

Blogging automation

Blogging automation is key if your building a blogging network. You want to be able to have one post go to multiple blogs. This way you get the most out of your article your posting, and you generate extra back-links if you them in your post. The reason for this post to test if this will get posted on blogger.com. I have hopefully set it up so that when I post this article it will get posted to Google plus then it will post to blogger.com. Also on a side note its good to have authoritative links or links that are not going to your target site. So hopefully this works or you will see another post similar to this one.

It appears this works different than I first thought. Blogger posts to Google Plus not vise versa. WordPress.com does a good jog of syndicating to Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn, and Path. I was hoping to post to Blogger as well, since it is Google owned I am sure they would rank the content well.
