How To Index Your Backlinks Easily – Revealing My Case Study
Results
Getting your backlinks indexed is critical to the success of any link building campaign.
There is no point creating links if Google doesn’t index them you are just wasting your time, energy and money.
Indexing backlinks used to be a lot easier than it is today, we could just ping them or create RSS f eeds and
submit them to RSS directories.
That was highly ef f ective a couple of years ago – but what about now? What is the best way to index your
backlinks?

Which indexing method is a waste of money
My Backlink Indexing Case Study
To f ind out what is the most ef f ective way to index your backlinks I decided to setup a test to measure the
results of dif f erent approaches.
I created 5,000 links across 5 separate projects in GSA Search Engine Ranker building links to a dummy site
using article directories, social bookmarks, wikis & web 2.0s.
I used Kontent Machine with the worst possible combination of settings to purposely generate the worst
possible auto generated spun content you have ever seen.
The type of content people claim is impossible to index and useless in link building.
So once each of the 5 projects had 1,000 verif ied links – I moved onto indexing them with dif f erent methods &
services.
Ping Farm
PingFarm is a f ree indexing service that a lot of people in f orums swear by. In essence all it does is ping your
backlinks and nothing more.
This is one of the oldest methods in the book that died of f years ago but its still a tool many use.
Indexification
The Indexif ication guys basically create short URL’s of your links, ping them, create & submit RSS f eeds,
create & ping sitemaps and also create & ping content pages with your links on.
They guarantee that Google will at least crawl every single link you submit to them. You can submit 50,000 links
per day f or $17.97 month.
Lindexed
The Lindexed service works in pretty much exactly the same way as Indexif ication. They use the same indexing
methods except they have a unique f eature called PingCloud.

2. However it does cost slightly more at $24.97 a month to process 50,000 links per day.
OneHourIndexing
The OneHourIndexing team do not reveal the methods they use to index your links. All I know is that they use
‘secret techniques’ that ‘is not pinging, rss or link building’.
However these secret techniques come at a greater cost – $17 to process 1,000 links per day or $47 / 10,000
per day or $97 / 30,000 per day.
Control Group
The 5th project I created with GSA was a control group of links. These links will not be submitted to any
indexing service or pinged in any way, shape or f orm.
This will give us a benchmark to measure the other services against to see if indexing services do actually work
or not.
Link Indexing Case Study Results
Remember each of the 4 services and control project above had a set of 1,000 verif ied links each created
using the absolute worst quality content I could generate.
I submitted each set of links into their respective indexing services and then index checked the links daily using
Scrapebox f or 15 days.
Quite of ten Scrapebox reports links aren’t indexed but when you check yourself , they are. To avoid this I ran a
‘double pass’ index check every day double checking if links are indexed or not.
The Results Are In
Here is a quick summary of the results af ter 15 days looking at the total % of links indexed.
Service Day 1 Day 7 Day 15
Control 9.03% 10.40% 11.44%
Indexification 8.11% 28.09% 25.89%
Lindexed 8.20% 9.12% 10.29%
OneHourIndexing 9.91% 51.62% 51.62%
PingFarm 8.36% 9.70% 10.27%
As you can see the results are pretty clear cut, especially when you look at it in graph f orm-

Wrapping It Up
Without a doubt OneHourIndexing is by f ar the best link indexing service money can buy. It absolutely
dominated the results.
Interestingly using the paid Lindexed service or the f ree PingFarm service of f ers absolutely zero benef its
perf orming at the same level as the control group.
They are just a waste of time & money.
Using the Indexif cation service does have some benef it but only gets half the links indexed than

3. OneHourIndexing.
However OneHourIndexing is 4 times the price of Indexif ication so that weighs into it.
In my opinion – if you have already invested the time and money creating links. Then there is no point cutting
corners when it comes to getting them indexed!
Backlink Indexing Rankings
So there you have it, if you want to get your links indexed use OneHourIndexing. If you use Lindexed or
Pingf arm, stop wasting your time & money.
The next time you see someone telling someone to ping backlinks to index them give them a slap
