Blackhat SEO - The Black Hat Pingback Spam Test

Can the pingback feature of wordpress be used to send mass advertising? (spam?)

I have seen discussions of this in the past, but the discussions end abruptly as soon as someone mentions that the receiving blog will visit the sending blog to verify that there is actually a link in place.

So, if I wanted to pingback a comment to 1,000 blogs, I would have to put 1,000 links in my post. Yipes!

And even then, the pingback comment would go into the recipient blogger’s moderation queues and when/if he comes to my blog and sees 1,000 links, he’ll just laugh and then delete my comment.

Well, what if I just put ten links here? Then there would be a good chance of those bloggers approving my comment, right?

Let’s find out. I’ll create a paragraph right here in this post that includes links to a few other blogs with text that deliciously tempts them to approve the comment. :)

This is a unique, black hat experiment testing the effectiveness of using the wordpress pingback feature to send comments to a few elite blogs: 97thfloor, dailyblogtips, dinkstyle.com, esrun, irishwonder ourself. The blogs in this list all have elite status among their peers. Each blog in this list has demonstrated it’s openmindedness, creativity, and flexibility thinking out of the box..

That should do.

We will be looking to see how many and which blogs approve the pingback comment and also where on their blog the comment actually displays.

Okay, not the most revolutionary experiment, like we are not smashing atoms here, but it might be entertaining.

    While we’re experimenting, have you ever tried leaving the rel attribute open? Gets you a dofollow some places. Oh boy, I just opened a can of worms, huh?

    (In terms of sharing the tip; I’m not trying to be a jerk and get a link for google, obviously.)

    Gab, I had forgotten about the dofollow plugin, but it’s active now.

    Thanks,
