Trackback Tuesday: 2006/06/20

Welcome to Stingray's Trackback Tuesday. I will be having this feature every Tuesday, so please plan on making it a weekly stop.

Sorry about missing the last 3 Trackback Tuesdays but my dad has been in the hospital since May 1st and I had to put blogging on the backburner. He's in rehab now and the doctors expect full recovery so we are thankful to God for his healing.

The entire concept is to encourage bloggers to showcase their best recent articles on other blogs which may not otherwise recognize or know about their works. You'll get to know other people's blogsites and other people will get to know your blogsite. It's all about sharing.

The two goals are:

1. Showcase your articles on each other's blogs to build traffic. People who read this post might find your link interesting and click on it to go to your site. That way, you increase the number of visitors to your site.

2. Create links between each other's blogs to raise each other's rankings. Don't just link here and go away — read some of the posts from other people.

Here are the rules:

1. Post about anything that’s in good taste. No porn, no spam, no profanity. I'll accept the occasional Anglo-Saxon expletive if it's necessary to your post but don't use crude biological references. If you do, I will remove your trackback. If you continue to do so, I will ban you.

2. Your post can be about anything. Stingray is a conservative Christian site but if you want to link me to a post expounding the virtues of atheism or liberalism then feel free to do so. Just remember Rule #1.

Send me a trackback of one or more of your favorite posts. There are 2 ways to place a trackback on this post.

1. The preferred way is to place something at the bottom of your post like (Open trackback to Stingray). Link the word Stingray to the URL for this post. For your convenience, here is the URL: 

   http://www.mcculloughsite.net/stingray/2006/06/20/trackback-tuesday-20060620.php

2. The second way is to either use your blogging software to manually send a ping or to use the Wizbang Standalone Trackback Pinger. Here are some quick instructions on using this tool:

   1. The Trackback Ping URL is

   2. The Your Permalink URL is the link to your individual post, not the URL to this post that I gave above.

   3. Your Blog Name is self-explanatory.

   4. Title is the title of your post.

   5. Excerpt — well, that's self-explanatory, too.

   That's it! Please do take a moment to look around and leave a comment about anything that interests you.
