There are a handful of good blog ping services out there, but recently I noticed one of my favorite is no longer available. For the many people who were using this specific service, I have created a new service to offer all the folks who come here to find the best webmaster services on the net. I added this script to a sister site of mine called RSS 3.0. No, RSS 3.0 is not out quite yet, but this site offers a lot of information on the usage of RSS feeds to make most out of your online efforts and has recently added the blog ping service to its arsenal of must have tools for webmasters and internet marketers alike.
You may already have a ping list associated to your new posts, especially if you are using Wordpress or have your feed listed on feedburner.com, however there are many more RSS feed aggregation services that you may not be sending notifications to by default. This blog pinger allows you to choose which services and in which counties you want your web site information to become syndicated. You can also choose the “select all” option to send out your site updates to over 70 services all at once!
What Is A Ping Service?
An RSS Ping Service is nothing more than a way for you to notify large sites of updates to your site. Each new post or page you make creates a small section of information on your RSS Feed, each of these include a title that links back to your site and a short description, usually the first few lines of text on your new content. This information is what will be sent to search engines, blog searches and various other rss feed aggregation services.
How Often Should I Use A Ping Service?
You should only use a ping service if you have new information on your site. If you continue to submit a rss feed that does not have any updates in it, some services may see this as spam and stop taking submissions for your site. There is no reason to over ping a site, if you update the site you can go send out a notification and this should suffice.
Ping Your Blog Now
Hope you all enjoy the new service, feel free to share it with friends and colleagues.
To Success,
Nick Simpson
