Thanks Blixx for your helpful post Question, can I ask why you advocate pinging to let Google index your pages instead of building some links to them to quicken the process? I mean, some links from Digg, Delicious, Reddit and other big social bookmarking sites won't hurt, right?

Either way can work. I like pinging because I like free and quick.

There is an argument to made, though, against using social signals to draw initial attention to a site. The crux of which is that once one starts with inorganic social signals, one pretty much has to keep an organic velocity of those signals up with an almost ever-increasing trajectory of both quantity and quality. The proper analysis of this velocity is time consuming and a lot of sites just don't merit the time or financial expenditure in the end accounting. So, if I can draw attention to a property A.) for free, B.) Quickly, and C.) In a manner that costs me no more than 33 seconds of my time, I'm going to do that.

My goal with MicroNicheSites - each and every time - is "easy". In a sentence: "How high can I rank this thing and how easy can I make ranking it on myself?" Repeat: passive income, passive income, passive income... Which is not to say "lazy".

So, no - Diggs, Stumbles, Tweets (etc) won't 'hurt', per se; but are, in my opinion, an unnecessary expense in terms of both time and (usually) money. Further, waiting and watching for where Google places your site in SERPs, free and clear of nearly any off-site factors, provides one with an invaluable perspective and data that may as well be considered gold. In essence, the info garnered will tell you - almost exactly - how to highly rank the entirety of your MNS. Ergo, you'll know your expenses over the short-, medium-, and long term; and, whether or not your efforts towards the property should be expanded or contracted.

A well-written comment, Blixx. Its as if you mixed my Uni years with IM. We all have different goals. My as as well, is to work just a few hours a day.

OP, you outsource article writing?
