There’s a safe and effective way to achieve automated link building that I’ve been using for the last couple of weeks.
Some interesting facts not many link building services talk about:
Every time a link is generated, there’s little guarantee or assurance those links will be indexed, and always a good chance that those generated links may never provide an actual backlink. The reason for this is these sites in these networks usually have massive upside-down link juice and are getting new content published to them so frequently that the spiders aren’t indexing them as fast as the new content’s being published.
So when your article hits 800 UAW sites, or 1500 Link Farm Evolution WPMUs, or 8000 Link Dozer sites, there’s still a pretty good chance that a vast majority of the articles hosted en masse to all these places will never provide a true backlink because they’ll NOT be getting indexed.
URLS can get de-indexed due to poor site crawlability which disallows the search engine spiders from finding a particular url on a site.
Many article submission services like Unique Article Wizard, Link Dozer, My Article Network, The Link Juicer, 1waylinks all have this issue because these services rely on free plugins, software, donor blogs and WordPress remote publishing features to syndicate host-and-post articles that lead to backlinks.
Have you ever wondered why services like Unique Article Wizard that are supposedly sending your articles to 800 directories, don’t end up with you getting 800 credited backlinks?
Well, I just explained the reason why….
Poor crawlibility and overall poor quality of the sites linking to you from your syndicated articles.
However, there’s one good thing about this whole article syndication methodology….
You get pingbacks and trackbacks even if the urls you’re getting these pingbacks and trackbacks from aren’t indexed.
What if there was a plugin that could ensure that every url that sent you a legitimate trackback or pingback actually got indexed?
- That would mean you’d get a vastly larger amount of credited backlinks from your efforts, especially article syndication efforts, right?
- That means you’d do more with less
- That means throwing less spaghetti against the wall hoping something (backlink) sticks
- That means you don’t have to fire up your social bookmarking tool like Bookmarking Demon and spend time getting your referring sites (sites hosting your syndicated articles) indexed
Before I start sounding like a sales pitch….
I’ve been using a plugin that helps get these pingbacks indexed and it takes about 2 minutes to set up and I think it’s a brilliant idea.
Earlier on I mentioned that Unique Article Wizard does send your articles to a lot of sites but a lot of those pingback source urls don’t get indexed. Well a reader of this blog told me about a plugin he created that helped him with his article syndication efforts by getting more of these pingbacks indexed.
Introducing: The Indexing Tool and Trackback Feed plugins
The Trackback feed plugin makes a separate RSS feed out of all your pingbacks and this RSS feed can be submitted to all the major RSS directories. Here is what a trackback feed looks like
The Indexing Tool plugin then displays the links to these pingback urls (the ones linking to you but may not be indexed yet) in a list under a heading called “other articles you may like” which you’ll see listed at the end on this post you’re reading now.
The Indexing Tool CAUSES the pingback URLS to get indexed merely by being displayed on your sites’ pages, which presumably are already indexed, so when the search engine spsiders come to your site’s pages, it sees the outobund links and follows them thereby creating a newly indexed url.
The beauty of the Indexing Tool is that it checks to see if a pingback URL is indexed or not and deletes these URLS from display once they’re indexed and displays newly updated list of pingbacks urls to check for their indexed state.
Not only does this plugin get sites linking to you indexed, but it also increases the spidering frequency of your site because the content on them (the display list of pingback urls) keeps changing so it appears to the spiders that you have ever-changing content, which you do (the list keeps changing).
NOTE: You can put the Indexing Tool on as many sites as you want and display the trackback feed from any site on any other site you want.
Also, this tools works rather slowly at first then picks up speed quickly and you’ll start getting 5-10 new backlinks a day if you have this on several sites at once. Of course you’ll need to be getting backlinks an dpingback sin the first plac ein order for this to happen, and this tool merely makes everything you do more powerful because it ensures that the satellites site slinking to you get the pages linking to you indexed.
Devil’s Advocate time: some doubts I had about this idea/tool
Using this tool means you’re creating potential for site visitors to click AWAY from your site to read an article somewhere else, but you should realize that the articles you’re (potentially) sending visitors to go read are linking back to you anyways.
So if anything, this creates a temporary reciprocal or 3 way link exchange, with a heavy emphasis on the word temporary because once those urls are indexed the Indexing Tool removes them from display on your site.
It could also cause a temporary trackback to be sent, too
Last Note: There are some improvements that could be made to this plugin and I’ve discussed my ideas with the owner. He said he’d put more money into development of this plugin and implement these ideas if he got more sales from it.
It’s a brilliant idea and concept and it’s definitely a tool you should have in your SEO toolbox.

Hey Daniel,
Looks like a phenominal plug in. I do have a question though.
For the pingbacks, is it possible to control where they appear on your blog, as in just specific pages and not individual posts?
Thanks,
Kurt
Hey Kurt, good question.
The displayed links will appear on every post and there’s a separate option for putting this display list on WordPress Pages, too.
Since PAGES should be money + conversion oriented entities, I wouldn’t display these links on pages.
Your posts should be directing visitors towards your (money) pages anyways, then those urls should have nothing but what you want them to see on there (ie, no sidebars, no comments, no social bookmarking icons etc…)
Ive got no idea about trackbacks and pingbacks and the like. Does this plugin explain all that and tell you how to set it up? If its effective, I’ll get it, but it sounds a bit complicated. Also, won’t this make your site look, well, ugly with a bunch of links on each page — or maybe im misunderstanding something.
Sean, there’s tutorials on that sales letter for setting everything up. Once you have the plugins downloaded, it takes 30 seconds to install and activate the trackback feed, and another 30 to install the Indexing Tool and maybe another minute (f you’re not that speedy) to configure 2 settings for the indexing tool plugin.
About your “ugliness” question, most blogs display related posts on their site and the pingback display list looks just like it. Granted… it adds a little bit of clutter to the site but it also ensures that your syndication efforts resul tin real indexed backlinks, so it’s a toss-up you have to consider. I use it, obviously and I hate on-site clutter, so that should tell you where my priorities lie.
Thanks,
Dan
Just got it through your link.
Looks fantastic and very easy to set-up.
Phew…lots of pingpacks that need to be indexed
Thanks for the info about the tool.
Kurt
Thanks Kurt, hopefully more people get this so we can fund the enhancements for it.
For example: if there was a way to delete the pingbacks from the RSS feed AND site itself once they were indexed that’d be even more of a time-saver
Hi Daniel, Hi Kurt
We are definitely looking for new ideas for the product, I can’t ever promise we will include them all but if we don’t hear about them then we definitely can’t.
We have just got a new copy to the trackback plugin to test, this one does excerpts, so i am hoping it can be used with some services like twitterfeed, so you get the links even more attention.
I will let everyone know when it has been tested and you can get a copy.
Paul
Thanks for stopping by Paul.
I have my trackbackfeed added to Feedburner, which is auto-re-tweeting my TBs and PBs.
Here’s my FB TB feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/LinkBuildersBlog
Here’s the Twitter account it’s getting retweeted to http://twitter.com/GetBacklinks
This definitely looks like a great plugin to help index my blogs, but i have other websites that are in HTML, how can i use this plugin to index my html pages, what if i install wordpress blog, but will this help to index sites that only link to homepage or internal page which is also html page?
waiting for your reply.
thanks,
rushikesh, love this plugin definitely gonna buy this
Hey Rushikesh, the main purpose of this plugin to to ensure that your backlinks are getting indexed, and it’s not really a site indexing tool although it could work for that purpose, too.
IF you have other website sin html, hmmm good question, I will get you an answer. Get the plugin and I’m sure Paul will consider adding enhancements for html sites, too
Hi, Daniel thanks for quick reply,
OOpssy , sorry about my confused mind post
, i was doing 2-3 other things also at writing this reply, what i was saying was index backlinks instead of blogs
, thanks but u did answer my question of how to get backlinks indexed for html pages, will see if in future this plugin can help for html pages. will wait for Paul’s answer when he reply’s you.
regards,
rushikesh
Hi Daniel,
How does the Trackback feed plugin interact with other RSS plugins? I currently use one some of my sites that automatically submits posts to various RSS directories automatically. I’m curious as to whether they will play nicely with each other.
Thanks
Good question, I’ll see if I can get the owner of the Trackback /indexing tool plugin to connect with the WebTraffic Genius guys so see if they can make this a combo effort.
I sue WebTraffic Genius, formerly known as RSS Power Pro Plus and WTG isn’t doing anything with the trackbackfeed, and I’m not 100% sur eif it should. Think of how this could be so easily gamed, by sending fake trackbacks to 1000s of blogs
Hi Daniel
The Index & Trackback plugin look good. However, by linking your trackback feed to feedburner, twitter and some other services (like you commented above) don’t you effectively prompt the search engines to go and index the links linking to you making the plugin redundant?
Thanks
Mike
Hey Mike, good question
#1- Feedburner feed doesn’t get indexed
#2- Twitter is NoFollow but does help a little with getting items indexed.
If anything these make the indexing tool work faster, and if/when you install this plugin, you’ll be amazed at how many unindexed pingbacks and trackbacks you’re getting, so the faster you can get these indexed, the better.
Thanks,
Dan
Hi Guys
I have just updated the latest version of the trackback plugin to the members area, a couple of people who were using all in one seo reported problems and there was a “nothing found” problem we encountered.
I will send out a email to all buyers but I know some of you guys are mad keen to get hold of it.
As I think Daniel has mentioned once you have the trackbackfeed created you can use it anywhere and everywhere. Spread the love around!
Paul
I am very happy you made a post about this -
I’ve heard about this plugin before, and I don’t understand this : you always have the option already to publish your trackbacks or not with the comments – that’s not the same thing ? doesn’t that help those pages get indexed ?
and I read that plugin now can be use with a widget to place those links in the sidebar or wherever – not necessarily under your posts. That’s really interesting.
.-= Marie´s last blog ..Backlinks Automation | ZIMBIO and Other Sites Like Zimbio =-.
Hi Marie, yes you can display trackbacks as “comments” but most blogs and themes have comments pingbacks and trackbacks set to NOFollow and it’s somewhat difficult for the search engines to spider all the way down a huge list of comments to find and nofollow a trackback link (but still possible).
For FASTER, easier indexing you want to use the complementary indexing tool which puts those links inside main post content like related posts plugins do, since post content and the links thereon are usually do follow. About the sidebar footer widget thing, it could work that way, too is sidebars are DoFollow, but I prefer to just put those links inside article/post content to make it easier for the spiders to get them index quicker.
Hey Dan,
I’m considering getting this plugin today (through your aff link of course
) and I wanted to know if it works for UAW submissions I might use exclusively for promoting my traffic hubs (eza’s, hub pages, youtube vids, etc.) or does it only work for WP blogs?
Thanks,
Paul
Hey Paul, it’s a blog only plugin and it was made by a UAW user who didn’t like seeing so many potential backlinks remain indexed, so if you have a blog you’ll rack up the indexed/credited backlinks with this tool.
If you use hubs, they should be pulling RSS feed of your blogs onto the hub, and ezas have rss feeds too.
Actually, I just remembered, this tool shows you how to create rss feeds out of anything which includes all your aforementioned traffic hubs.
Buy the plugin!
Each purchase helps further development of the tools, which hopefully will include support and features for html sites some day
Okay, thanks. That connects the dots for me.
I do have a ton of WP blogs I can add this to. Some of my newer non-WP sites also have RSS feeds I’ll incorporate as I build out my hubs. So this plugin should fit in nicely.
I’m sold. I’m gonna get it later on tonight or tomorrow and plug it into my blogs.
Congratulations! You are the lucky winner of a new affiliate commission.
Seriously, though, you deserve every dime of commissions you get from this site, Dan. The real value and honest reviews you bring to the table are priceless.
Paul, thanks again!
BTW, I have a script coming out soon that’s a backlinks generator for your backlinks (approx. 44/url) , and I’m only selling 4 of these to cover programming costs. One comp. copy is gong to owner of the trackback feed/indexing tool plugin to see if he can make both of these work in conjunction with each other in an automated way, becaus eas it stands right now the script (my script) will require manual clicks to generate 44 links per url.
One more thing, once you get this plugin start thinking/mapping out a mechanism for merging rss feed from multiple sites, adding them to directories, make link wheels out of your singular main site rss feeds and merged feeds, get them added to a trackback feed, put TB feed into feedburner, have FB auto tweet your latest feed entries etc…etc..etc…
Lots you can do with RSS feed links which basically acts a min-army of index driving entities
Thanks for the tips, Dan. That script of your sounds pretty sweet. I just got my hands on the plugin. So, I’ll put it to good use with your advice in mind.
Another one bites the dust ;o).
Thanks Dan for the review i will put it on use and see how it goes.
Can you show me a site where you are using this indexing tool plugin on? I am concerned about having a bunch of links at the bottom of some of my posts. Can I use the plugin on one site to index the trackbacks on another site? Are you using it on this site?
Hi Jason, yes you can put the trackback feed plugin and the indexing plugin on a different site (site B), to get pingbacks and trackbacks to site A indexed.
Here’s a site that has these installed on it http://increasewebsitetraffictips.com/understanding-the-consumer-buying-cycle-%E2%80%93-search-funnels
Look for the link underneath the blurb that says, “other articles you may like”, click that link, then read article, then see where link in article points to (site A url).
Once a url gets indexed, the link is removed from site display, so not a huge outbound link concern, if you get my drift
Great article and site. I got the plugin and installed it. It seems like the place to start is with the feed for my own site, right? And then add feeds for article sites, etc. when all of my pages show as indexed.
Am I way off base or does starting with your own site make sense?
Thanks
Makes perfect sense Gail.
Start with your own site, get your EZA author feed indexed, and expand outward from there, just think of all this as “index driving” and the more you can do to increase the number of indexed articles, the better
Great article and site.
I am very happy with this post. I got lot of information from this post, definetly i will start for my website also.
Thanks for sharing…
Dan, how do I obtain all the pingback URLs associated with my UAW submissions and is this tool only useful for wordpress blogs or can I use it with my non-wordpress site created with Expression Web 3?
James, you can get the plugin referenced in this post, for starters, then just collect the trackbacks and away you go
Dan,
Did you ever get that script developed that would “work in conjunction with [this plugin] in an automated way” and that is a “backlinks generator for your backlinks”?
B/c I’d love to have a plugin that would take all those pingback urls, then backlink them to web 2.0 sites or something.
Is that what your script would do?
Hi Greg I never got that fully developed since my bad run of luck with programmers from India continued…
.
Pretty soon I’ll be making a post about a certain service and one of those co-owners has a bot that can grab all the urls off a feed and give you a list….too do with what you will
can’t wait for that post. We could use that tool along side with the trackbackfeed plugin am I right?
Yes, that is correct
hey Dan,
I’ve trying to search for that kind of tool ( grabs url from feeds) but still no luck. with all this new indexing services like LJM, backlinkbooster , linklicious which requires pages urls, I think that is a really critical tool with all these link building from blogs.
Have you found that kind of tool already or did I miss something here?
Thanks.
Talking about using this plugin for helping to index UAW article submissions…if the plugin takes trackbacks from other blogs and creates a feed, I understand that. What about the UAW articles that are published in article sites that aren’t Wordpress blogs? Wouldn’t that be the majority of the backlinks from articles?
I checked the trackbacks on my blogs and notice that some of them come from (shall we say) less reputable sites (pharmaceuticals and adult primarily). If I use this plugin, it in effect creates a backlink from my site to these sites. You hear about being careful what you link out to….how big a deal is this?
That’s a big deal, and I do believe somewhere on this site I show people how I use the trackback plugin to put those trackbacks on index driver sites, so you don’t have to approve the trackbacks nor link back to them to make them work for you. All you want to do with the trackback urld is get them indexed somehow, and you really don’t want to be linking to them from site they’re linking to since it’s reciprocal and if they’re spam sites that’ll be even worse for your site.
I noticed the same thing as Jen a while back. I knew about trackback spam, but I didn’t pay it to much attention until links to p*rn and pills sites started to show up in my feed. So I just stopped using it. Plus, I wasn’t too fond of linking away from my site in a reciprocal fashion.
I believe the post Dan is referencing is here – Automated Backlinks With RSS. In it he discusses the concept of making an RSS feed with your trackbacks and then using that feed on your index driver sites and not your main site.
I haven’t put this advice to use because, in my experience, my BLE sites get deleted if I post too many short posts with no rich-media content. I supposed I could always submit the RSS feeds I create from my trackbacks to the RSS directories. But the same concern about the p*rn and pills sites ensures. I’m concerned about having to spend hours weeding them out before my feed is up to snuff.
Vince of AMR recently emailed his customers about this tool called Pingback Optimizer (no aff link) that appears to be a better solution (at least when it comes to other wordpress sites linking to your wordpress site). These days, even a number of article directories in UAW and AMR are built on Wordpress. So, it seems pretty useful.
I used to manually do what this tool does automatically. I kept thinking to myself that there had to be a way to automate what I was doing. So, needless to say, I’ll be getting this one at some point next week. I’m getting ready to go to a barbecue now (it’s always the right time to grill in my book). Otherwise, I’d get it today and play around with it.
Dan, if you’ve had some experience with the Pingback Optimizer, I’d love to hear your thoughts on it.
Hi Paul, I’m still using the plugins referenced in this post to automated backlinks to the trackbacks urls
I use this plugin to create trackback feed on site A, the site getting the trackbacks, then scrape that trackback feed on an index driver site, then that index driver site posts content blurb from rss feed snippet as a post, then that post is syndicated to twitter and other places to help further index things.
This works for me, and maybe the pingback optimizer is better, who knows? but I might check it out anyway to satisfy my curiosity
Thanks, Dan. I have to admit that all of the talk about different feeds makes my head spin sometimes. I’m sure I even over-complicate things in my efforts to make sense of it all.
I’ve re-read your “RSS Brain Dump” post as well was your post on Pingback Optimizer (thanks by the way – brought much clarity concerning what I already have in my possession and saved me $97) and I think it finally clicked with me.
Dan, can you elaborate more as to exactly how you do this? Or point us to a post that details it? Are you talking about Backlinks Energizer or similar as the “index driver” site?
———————-
I use this plugin to create trackback feed on site A, the site getting the trackbacks, then scrape that trackback feed on an index driver site, then that index driver site posts content blurb from rss feed snippet as a post, then that post is syndicated to twitter and other places to help further index things.
Eldon you have the right idea.
Do you want to know all the possibilities on what you could do with these trackbacks, or just how I treat them? I wrote a new post (draft) on this already, but it’s more of a “all the things you can do with…” post, which makes things seem like too much seo voodoo, and a lot more work than it really is….
Hi Daniel,
I have an Ecommerce website and not a wordpress blog and the problem you have raised in the post above is a big problem to me – i am syndicating lots of content (UAW, etc), but having hard time tracking it and “linking” to it so i can get it indexed and have it stay “live”…
any suggestion on how to track this content?
It’s my first comment / question on your blog, but i am a follower for sometime now – great content – thanks.
Shiran, I’m currently reviewing a tool/service that may help with this. In meantime use as many “fake” and unique author names as possible then set up Google Alerts to find mentions of those author name son the net, to find your articles before they get indexed.
Part of the rankings factors for urls on a site has to do with traffic being sent to a site, and UAW is one of the few article syndication services that actually do send targeted traffic form other sites, it’s just not as targeted as your normal organic traffic but some links stick, some links do not, but UAW submissions also increase page views on the urls hyperlinked in your articles…
Thanks for the reply Daniel,
I would love to hear about this tool/service when you are done reviewing it. Google Alerts is a great idea – I have used it before for this perhaps but stopped and now I will take you advice and get back to it.
I have just read your interview with Sean Donahoe about his backlink booster script, do you think this is the best option to get those links indexed after finding them?
Thank you again for this and everything else on your blog (got from your link the linxboss and build my rank – both helping a lot).
Hey Daniel,
Ok so now that I’m counting a rather steady stream of ping backs/track backs from my first run of AMR, it’s been pointed out to me that it would be in my best interest to see this inbound links are indexed, would this Automated Link Building Tool be the proper solution for this then, or are there other tools that might be more effective that I have not stumbled across on your blog yet??
Thanks!
Here you go Kyle just for you (and others
)
What to do with your pingbacks and trackbacks?
Hey Daniel,
This is outstanding information. I was just about to buy Pingback Optimizer when I came across your post. Thanks.
Eric
I was about to buy PO too. I’m glad I saw this post. I’ve bookmarked this and am planning to buy the tool through your affiliate link. I’ve been with UAW for more than 2 yrs but do notice that not all my supposed links are credited
Hi Daniel,
Could you make a review about http://www.backlink-energizer.com as well?
I’d like to know more about the automated backlink indexing tool.
What do you think compare to indexingtool.com?
Btw, can indexingtool.com give a backlink to forum profile backlinking url?
Thank you
Hey Dan,
I’ve got to say this is an awesome concept. I bought the plugin through your link a few days ago and it’s already indexing my UAW links (via an index driver site) like crazy.
I have lots of aged domains, some with Pagerank that would be perfect for more of these index driver sites. This technique works really well with Yahoo Pipes. You can do all sorts of stuff with RSS feeds, including filtering to get rid of specifc urls.
I’m also trying the Indexing Tool on my Link Juicer campaigns to see if I can work these links more effectively. Have you had any success with this technique and LJ?
Wow Daniel. What an exciting tool. Just what I’ve been looking for. Excuse my ignorance, but will it work on regular web pages, or just wordpress blogs.
M
The trackback part will only work with Wordpress
Something that could get the url of the trackbacks/pingbacks from the trackbackfeed every time there’s new trackback/pingbacks. And put those urls into a list or export them to csv file. So then I could submit it to service like LJM or backlink booster to get them indexed quickly.
I’m subscribed to this thread. So, I couldn’t help but overhear (or is that overread) your conversation.
Anyway, I’m using a free tool called URL Extractor 1.0 – http://www.focalmedia.net/urlextract.html. I don’t know who made it, but God bless ‘em. They saved me $50 (There’s competing tool that does the same type of link extraction for fifty bucks).
URL Extractor 1.0 only extract urls from HTML files. It doesn’t get everything if you try to extract from a regular text file.
Here’s what you do, though.
1. In your browser, view the source code of the page that shows the status of the links in your Trackback feed.
2. Copy and paste the code. Start from the point where the HTML code reads “Not Checked or Not Indexed” (I always use the CTRL+F feature in my browser to find it) and copy all the way down to the first closing “div” tag you see. It’s easy to find.
3. Paste all of this code into a Notepad file and save it as links.html or whatever you want to call it. Just be sure to give it a “.html” file name and save it as an “All Files” type instead of a “Text Documents” type. Make sure you remember where you saved it because you’ll need to find it again.
4. Assuming you’ve downloaded and installed URL Extractor 1.0, go ahead and fire it up. By default, the first pane should show your desktop folder.
5. Locate the folder where your “links.html” file is saved. The software should no populate the contents of that folder in the second pane. If you don’t see anything in the second pane, then you may have to click around on a few other folders in the first pane until you see something in the second pane (it’s free, so it ain’t perfect but it gets the job done).
6. Once you see some files show up in the second pane, find the folder where your “links.html” file is saved and click on it. You should now see its contents listed in the second pane if you didn’t before.
7. Select your “links.html” file and click the “Extract URLs” button at the bottom left of the software. Your links should now all appear in their full glory in the third pane beneath the “Extracted Items” heading. Copy your links to the clipboard and paste them wherever you need them to go or save them to a file – whatever fits your fancy.
That’s it. I’ve been using this process for link extraction with great success for a while. It’s pretty straightforward.
Of course, Dan, if you know of a much better way to do this, please put me out of my misery.
Actually, it’s not that miserable of a process. It’s fairly quick and easy. The only thing is that you have to repeat this process from time to time as new pingbacks are received so you can boost newer links.
Hopefully this helps, kalep.
Cheers,
Paul
Paul, thanks for chiming in here, that’s a pretty detailed explanation. Although I do like my mechanisms and automation, I also know that being just a little hands-on and using some extra tools is pretty effective too.
Yeah, I’ve been setting up index drivers with supportive content fed by the UAW plugin. Sometimes the trackback feed said nothing was found when I went the scraping route with an autoblogging plugin. So, I began to rely more on this manual extraction process.
I’ll have to try what you’ve outlined below. I think a mix of the UAW-fed content, the trackback feed entries, and maybe one other source will keep these index drivers “indexable” (hope that’s a word).
Paul,
Thanks a lot for that detail explanation. I appreciate it and will give it a try. Thanks again for your valuable time!
hey Paul,
I think I just found an easier to do this. At first I tried using the software you’ve stated to get links from a html page that has php script that shows rss feeds which I put in the trackbackfeed. I found that free script at feedforall.com. But the software extract a whole lot more than the trackback url. So, I tried to edit that php script to reduce what it shows on the page.
Long story short, I see that you could edit the script so that it only shows the urls of the trackback. once you put the feed url and the script template. you’ll be given a url to a page that contains all those trackback links. And if you got new trackbacks, you could just refresh the page and the new url will appear. You could try doing so at my site if you want.
here is the url where you can fill in the trackbackfeed: http://btd142hw.info/rss2html.php?buildURL
be sure to use this template url:
http://btd142hw.info/template4.html
then, it will give you the link to a page that contains all of the trackback url. everytime you refresh that page, it will update the links if there you new trackbacks.
Thanks, kalep. I like this even better for manual extraction of links.
Hi Dan
Thanks for the review and all the other info on your site, really appreciate it.
I have just bought the Indexing Tool with bonus Trackback Plugin.
Just a few of questions on ways how to maximize their effectiveness that you may be aware of:
1. Is there any benefit or harm in sprinkling my articles and bookmarks with a few links back to my trackbackfeeds page? (would this would create a link ping pong effect? and is that good or bad)
2. Is there any benefit or harm in sprinkling my articles and bookmarks with a few links back to the page/post that displays the indexing tool links generated from the trackbacks?
3. Is there any benefit or harm in having the trackback plugin and indexing plugin installed on the same site?
4. Is there any benefit or harm in having the trackback plugin on my money site, and the indexing plug installed on a blog that is in a sub-directory of my money site?
e.g
Trackback plugin on http://www.mysite.com
Indexing plugin on http://www.mysite.com/blog
5. Is there an easy way to automate the bookmarking and/or RSS submission of the http://www.mysite.com/trackbackfeed feed (rather than manually putting the feed into the indexing tool)?
6. I also have the Web Traffic Genius plugin, what are some effective ways for these plugins to work together?
Any other tips on how to get the most out of these plugins, especially on how to automate the whole process?
Thanks
Mark
This indexing tool is good and not expensive, if you use WP, which many people do. I think capturing the pingbacks and trackbacks in the RSS feed is the best feature. Posting a few links on your site, works, if your site is well traversed by crawlers. However, you get your links indexed slowly, the links make your site look unsightly. Submitting the aforementioned RSS feed to aggregators and other service certainly helps substantially.
I have tried, BackLinksEnergizer, which is a pretty slick tool. Creates posts on web 2.0′s and places links to your links on them. Really does increase indexing. However, if you have a WP site, this plug in kind of makes the site useless for any other purpose.
For non WP sites, you can create a WP folder or sub-domain and everything works fine. You can post about 50 links/day on a group of web 2.0′s. It uses the cron feature of your host to do this.
The web 2.0′s never get deleted because they are frequently updated. And they actually obtain higher PR themselves over time.
I’ll give you an example of one of mine it has created automatically for me: http://donywimber.typepad.com/blog/
My theme here is celebrities, links to my links are on the bottom of each post.
Kalep, what are you looking for exactly?
Something that will give you a list of all urls inside an RSS feed?
If so, are these feeds on your site, are they on wordpress, or other platforms?
Yep, exactly.
I’m using wordpress. My plan is to take all the urls from the trackbackfeed and submit them to services like LJM and backlinkbooster in order to get them indexed and build some links to them.
Just thought that it would be nice to have some tool that can grabs those trackback urls from the trackbackfeed as they come and we’ll be able to export those url to further promote those links.
Is there such tool?
Easiest and most automated things you could do is this:
Set up an autoblog whose sole purpose is to scrape entries from trackbackfeed and when doing so, use feedwordpress or wpomatic or any other rss scraping tool to make a post for each trackbackfeed entry, with each post linking back to the url inside the trackbackfeed.
Then, install a plugin called blogspider to export all the urls and keywords from autoblog site, to csv or text.
This file will list all urls on autoblog site, kws in the post titles
Then take the list of urls and submit them to wherever….
Linking up that list will provide an instant tiered linking mechanism, because you’ll be sending links to Autoblog site, whose posts link to the trackbackfeed urls, which in turn link to your money sites, I suppose. It’s easier thanit sounds.
You need:
free wordpress or wpomatic,
free blogspider plugin,
a domain with wordpress on it for autoblog rss scraping
and the plugin mentioned in this post, the indexing plugin with the trackbackfeed generator
Thanks Dan for that explaination. Just a few questions then, if the trackback comes from spinned blog posts, won’t there’ll be a lot hundreds of similar posts on our autoblog? And all of those similar posts needs to get indexed first before the trackback pages are indexed, right?
