/goatlog/index.php Pingoat log en http://backend.userland.com/rss092 RSS feed search engine was launched today - and it is called Octora. The service is built using the experience from previous work on search engine development, plus the help of some others developers. Some of the strongest points of Octora: - provides extrmely fast search results - it is indexing "almost" anything that has RSS and Atom content in It (well, having atom support is the next step, right now is in beta testings). - spam free results The search engine also provides advertising solutions for people who want to advertise their sites, and the traffic is coming from advertising until this service will be on it's own. P.S. An ad to a very popular internet marketing radio station (NetBizRadio) will run this weekend and will expose the service to thousands of marketers out there. Best!

Remember, the last tool added (blog worth) it's for fun, just like the other ones, so don't treat it like a real tool for selling/buying a blog. We are only considering things like: inbound links, blog links, etc. It's just a useful tool to use and helps you understand when your blog's value goes up or down.

After each ping, you will have the HolyCowDude/0.1 Feeds Searcher on your website crawling for feeds in just 1-2 minutes. If you don't want him there, and if you are not into getting traffic on your website, you can change your robots.txt file and dissalow the Cow's access, but if you want to get more people on your blog, keep pinging on each post update. Also, we received notices that some webservices aren't responding and we should update the list. We are handling this problem right now, and we came up with a solution: Each time a service doesn't respond, we use a counter. If the number of errors is huge compared with the numbers of pings (40%), we remove the service. We undestand that some servers might have problems but we want to improve your experience with Pingoat and provide faster services. That's why we will remove the ones which don't respond on most of the requests sent from the goat. Enjoy!]]> /goatlog/post/index/52/New-service-added The bad guys use certain english language patterns which simulate the natural way of building a blog, that's why most of your blogs trigger the spam filter.
