My new blog got indexed in Google in less than a week.

    Oh my God! I started a blog as a joke and within a few days it was on Google. I don't get it, but, hey.

    To be fair, I created it a few months ago, but, posted absolutely nothing. Last week, I read a post on DP saying how important blogging is as a marketing tool, so I decided to post on the blog.

    Anyway, it's from blogspot/blogger and I'm very impressed that it was picked up on Google.

    So, I guess, if you want to market something, create a blogger blog.

    Good Luck!

    thats cool, congrats

    my new site hit #1 on one of my keywords in 2 weeks :D

    the URL is less then 3 weeks old now :D

    it's amazing what a few quality back links will do for you ;)

    btw, its on my own url. I'd never used a blogspot or blogger type of site, i don't understand why ppl waste their time with those * confused*

    My main sites don't have rss feeds. So I signed up with Blogger as a goof and pinged the feed. I was able to use a template, but, reconstructed it completely to have a few adsense, and to take away a lot of the extra crap.

    Because blogger is Free, easy to use and simple to earn $$$ with!! Plus blogger blogs seem to index quickly. I have one simple blog earning me a good portion of my internet $$$ making.

    Lots of congratulations factchecker ! :d Are you also getting traffic from Google? and what about MSN and Yahoo. I think you should be seeing some regular traffic from Search Engines now :)

    Hey. I didn't even think about it but I just checked the name of my blog and it is on top of google's list. Pretty cool. Who would have thought. But then again what other webpage would have a name such as "Meditations of Comrade D."

    When you guys talk about pinging your blog, what does that mean? I am new to all this and trying to soak up all the info I can. I own a website but did not design it so I am playing catch up really.
