Folks,
It seems that a lot of people simply didn’t ‘get’ our last Web 2.0 SEO tool. So … I thought I would go into some of the theory behind it. First, We think that Pingerati and ‘decentralized tagging’ makes a great deal of sense, ping routing is a good way to deal with upgraded non-rss content, many sites like ours make a ton of changes to the HTML but we find that those are slow to propagate, while our blogs move fast over the web. The option is to go the feedburner route for your content and that is a good choice … If you have the kind of content that folks want to subscribe to. Now that might seem like a dumb comment … of course you need content where people want to subscribe; BUT what if you are reporting results/corrections of tests basically in realtime? Things like “oops, that didn’t work so well” or “whoa! this is a pretty good trial so far”. Unless you have never made a content mistake, you’ve seen your uncorrected content out there with no way to change it. While ping routing won’t let you change it, it is a better paradigm for those circumstances.
If you are one of many running around tagging your content to/for multiple sites then you know that it is a pain. That is why there is a rush from sites like onlywire and wink designed to help you multi-tag across many sites. Still xFolk and pingerati seem to us to handle this issue better.
Next, in old SEO, the idea was to keep your targeted keywords to a minimum, to keep the energy of that term high and not dilute it with other keywords. In decentralized or tagging in general, the more search terms you have, the more ways people can find your content and still be pretty sure it is what they are looking for.
The idea behind the xFolk - TagCloud generator is first, to make it easy to add (minimal) microformatting (xFolk) to your site, we suggest you use as many terms as you can (see the difference?).
Finally, it is one of the easiest TagCloud generators to use that we have seen if all you want is a pretty TagCloud to Web 2-a-fy your site. You get both great tools in one - and there is another added bonus if you just want to create simple tags for your site. Either we are ahead of our time or just insane, we don’t know yet.
