More Blog Traffic...Google Launches Blog Search

Some good news - Google has now launched a blog directory and search engine. It's located at http://search.blogger.com and is called Blog Search. With this new tool you can search blogs all over the web, which could easily mean a bunch of extra traffic and readers to your blog.

If your blog publishes a site feed and pings an updating service like Weblogs, then people should be able to find it in there.

What is Weblogs.com? It's a ping service owned by VeriSign, Inc., which automatically notifies subscribers that new content has been posted to a website or a blog.

Weblogs.com is the original pinging service and it receives millions of pings every day from blogs all over the world at the moment they publish new content. So make sure you ping your blog each time you post!
