BFB: What are pingbacks and trackbacks?

Blogging for Business Logo In my previous entry on Blogging for Business I covered how blogging can help your business.

Today I explain what trackbacks and pingbacks are, and how you use them to generate buzz for your blog and improve your search engine rankings.

Video:

Rather than reinvent the wheel, I have found a great video on Youtube which concisely explains what trackbacks and pingbacks are, how to use them, why you want to use them, and everything else. It’s about 6 and half minutes long.

You can watch this instructional video on YouTube.com instead if you’d like.
Disclaimer: I did not produce this video, I just think it summarizes trackbacks and pingbacks concisely.

    Thanks for that video. Very informative for someone who didn’t quite fully understand what pingbacks were all about.
