Have a blog? Here’s a tip to help gain readers!

So you have a new and ‘truly’ innovative blog, you would like to share your insight with the rest of the world but you have no idea how to obtain more readers.

Here’s a tip that many bloggers have no idea about — Update Services

Update Services are offered by Wordpress (this site is built on WP) by default. Unfortunately, it pings only one service, Ping-O-Matic.

The Update Service works by “pinging” the service each time you edit or create a new post. This ‘Ping’ is then processed and your post can now be found by really really bored people.

The Tip:

Update your Wordpress services by going to >>Options>>Writing and update with the list provided after the break.

The List: (Just copy and paste)
