http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ping_(blogging) *ping" It's merely letting other services know when something has been updated on your site.
Pinging is always free. "Blogging" is a generic term -- ALL frequently updated sites use them. From little ol' me to CNN.
I have no freaking idea how to get a high on Google (if I could do that -- I would be charging you by the hour right now
). I was only able to rank high because your page isn't very well written and all other pages (the other one...) was even worse.
Pings are "all" free. Go here and ping away (it's the strandard WordPress app) to your hearts content:
