I just signed 10kluke.info up for a new site called rssHugger. The brainchild of Collin LaHay, it is an interesting, and unconventional blog-promoting tool. I think it has the potential to become a very big name in the blogging industry.

While the original plan was to charge a $10 entry fee, it is currently possible to get in the directory for free. In exchange for writing a review of rssHugger, and provided you can pass a manual inspection for quality non-spam blogs, your entire RSS feed will be featured in their searchable directory. The review can be avoided if you want to pay $20 to be featured directly.

I have just installed the Nofollow Free plugin. This is good news if you have a blog or website and are looking to get some google ranking by posting comments here.

In case you didn’t know, Google recently implemented a convention of not counting any link labeled “nofollow” towards their rankings. The good news is that this reduces the chance that spammers will be able to get higher ranking from posting nonsensical comments to blogs. The bad news is that it keeps legitimate commentors from being able to tell others about their site as effectively.

An extremely valuable plugin for me has been the MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer. I like to publish articles in advance, and wordpress’s default pinging behavior on this is really lame. It sends the ping as soon as you hit “Publish” then fails to ping when the article actually shows up on your page! MBP Ping Optimizer delays the ping to the time when the article shows up on your page.
