Link Log Matcher Plugin
Introduction
Originally described in Eli’s bluehatseo.com post Link Saturation w/ Log Link Matching this plugin allows you to use this technique on your blog. I recommend reading the original article, but this technique gets links made to you indexed faster. The result is more efficient link building, and it’s all automated.
When a user visits your site, the plugin checks to see if they are coming from a SERP - if not, either an iframe or a piece of JavaScript (which creates the iframe dynamically) hits pingomatic.com with the referral URL, hopefully getting it indexed faster.
Here’s the link for the Link Log Matcher Plugin.
Installation
Installation is the same as most plugins, and if you’ve used widgets before you’ll know what to do. Please contact me if you’re having difficulty or you think something is broken. Here’s a step-by-step:
- Download the Link Log Matcher Plugin and extract link_log_matcher.php
- Copy the file into your wp-content/plugins/ folder
- Go to the Plugins menu in WordPress and activate the Link Log Matcher plugin
- By default the plugin inserts an iframe. If you’d rather use JavaScript go to Settings > Link Log Matcher and choose JavaScript.
Using the Plugin
It’s all automated once installed. If a user visits your site through a non-local link that is not a search engine results page, ping-o-matic will be used to ping that referring page and hopefully get it indexed faster.
