How to submit your wordpress blog to ask.com search engine.
Most people almost forgot ask.com is also one of the biggest search engine. Frankly ask.com was the last search engine i submitted my blog to, but i notice i have a decent traffic from ask.com.
Imagine, i didn’t submit to ask, i would not get any traffics at all. So it is a cool idea to add your blog or website to ask.com search engine, after we submit our blog to Google, Bing, and Yahoo.
There is not a video tutorial in this post, since the steps are very easy as submitting to Bing.
You need a ready to submit sitemap.xml of your blog, if you have it, we are ready to go:
1. Replace yourblogURL to your wordpress blog’s URL.
http://submissions.ask.com/ping?sitemap=http%3A//www.yourblogURL.com/sitemap.xml
2. Copy above URL and paste it in your browser, and hit enter.
You’re done, post fresh contents as usual, and build site’s popularity to help achieving better SERPs in ask.com.
Seems way to easy to implement. Isn’t this the same thing as pinging the search engines with the XML Sitemap plugin each time you update your blog?
@Udegbunam Chukwudi, It is not the same to me, when we submit our blog to ask.com, we want that ask.com crawls to our site, and find our sitemap.xml, tell them which posts and pages have to be indexed by ask.com.
thank you…added my sitemap there..hope it get me some traffic 😉
