Connecting Your Blog to the Eco-System

Just like many other bloggers, we have registered the IngBoo blog with various blog directories in order to increase visibility. One interesting effect of this, is that you can search these directories for content associated with your blog, the topic you cover or other aspect of what your blog covers. We are trying such a function right now using BlogCatalog. In the right column of this site, you see an image called "Get the Buzz!. When you click on it, we set up a sticky-search for the blog search function at BlogCatalog. In our case, we search for "ingboo.com" and get updates based on what we and others say about IngBoo. While this is currently a clickable image, we are also considering developing a widget that would list the search results within the blog for the readers to enjoy. Users can see results, click to see full search results at BlogCatalog.com or setup a sticky search and get update notifications.
