Mary Hodder posted part II of a six part series this week. Here is part I. Good stuff.
Doc mentioned today that I nailed the issue by saying the alternative search engines deliver quick uptake of fresh buzz. Thanks Doc!
I love fresh buzz. I love reading blogs that deliver fresh buzz. My aggregator is fresh-buzz oriented. You wouldn’t know this from my blog always–I’m slow on the buzz sometiemes. (Mary posted part II three days ago. Eons in buzz time.)
I love that the alternative shearch engines are shortening disemination time of fresh buzz. Although I’m sure exactly how it works, you should be able to get Technorati to see your buzz immediately by pinging the site. Pinging for Technorati can also be automated from your blog application. Theoretically, a ping will put your url at the top of the index queue for Technorati so that your blog gets indexed sooner than if you just waited for Technorati to get around to it.
I don’t know what the other engines do for pinging. I will check it out.
