Wordpress Ping Services
After every post you make on your blog, wordpress will ping some online services telling them that you have made a new post (like ping o matic). So, users from these services will know that you updated your blog, and bringing you possible visitors
The default ping service that wordpress uses is not enough. So i gathered some ping services over the time and now i want to share with you them.
The services that im currently using are:

http://xping.pubsub.com/ping/Thanks to Steve for telling me about:
http://blogsearch.google.com/ping/RPC2
and thanks to Poker Guide for warning me about the duplicates
I have been using them for some time now, and haven’t got any problem. You can use all of them or choose your favourites.
There will be more ping services around at the distance of a simple google search 
Happy pinging!

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Wow, great list! I didn’t know about all of these. There’s one you may have missed though:
http://blogsearch.google.com/ping/RPC2
Thats for the Google Blog Search. It can’t hurt to ping Google, although they’ll find you eventually anyway!
Steve’s last blog post..Finding The Best Bank
thanks! this one has to be pinged. lol how could i miss the google ping service?lol
i have added it to the list
Will using a list of these ping services over the WordPress default get you more traffic?
Squeaky’s last blog post..Nightmare on Elm Street for Google?
not directly. the ping services will help you get your post indexed more rapidly, making then your post available through search engines
Does wordpress automatically set up the ping services ? Or do i have to set up a Cron job or somthing ? I cant find any info anywhere…
regards
gaz
wordpress has it’s own cron job. but in the case of ping services it isn’t needed. when you post a new topic wordpress automatically pings all the services on your list.
cheers Lossehelin.. You know i googled for half a day and read half the wordpres smanual for that answer and its no where to be found..
also your ping list above has loads of duplicates in it. There are 104 in your list but only 55 after theyve been edited: 55 below =
