On a separate note, I am looking at launching a new blog shortly on a new domain, and was wondering if you would give some advice as to where to host it. It likely will get a little more traffic than my current blogs so that would be a consideration. Jim Eric, I still need to do this, and likely will get it done this weekend.

I have started up a blog about our little town of San Angelo. One thing I noticed is that after submitting my site to a few directories like blogcatalog.com and blogflux.com, I was getting my blog in the first two serps for a few crucial keywords. The problem was that it was the directory site that came up and my site is nowhere to be found. From what I understand here is that the sitemap generator or pinging regularly should counter this? I use a free wordpress.com account and have upgraded to use my own domain. Should I move my blog to another host and use a wordpress.org platform? Any help would be appreciated. --Andrew Great post!

Thanks for the great insight. I understand that regular pinging will also have the effect of big G visiting on a more regular basis and being aware that you are constantly adding more and updating your content. This should also have a favorable effect on your Search engine results. Am I understanding this correctly? Thanks as always for your help.
