Good Blogging Practice Part15

:hypediss: In Good Blogging Practice Part14 we have discussed on Social Bookmarking. Now our discussion will be on Pinging the blog. First of all, why Pinging is required?
You are adding new posts in your blog, then certain weblog tracking services are there which scans the blog. If you have updated your blog then you should let such weblog tracking services know that you have updated your blog. If you able to ping many weblog tracking services then your blog gets good visibility over blogosphere. And the ultimate result is more readership in your blog and more traffic.
If you want hand-on experience then Go Here.

Now our motive is to let you know such a service through which you can show that you have updated your blog.
Here is some way of pinging your blog.

• If you are blogging via Wordpress or Blogger it automatically pings to particular weblog tracking services like Weblogs.
• If you want to add more pinging services in your wordpress blog(Hosted). Then Login to your WordPress Administration Panel. Then click the Options. Then click on Writing. Find Update Services. Then click on Update Services link . Find A comprehensive list of blog pinging services. Copy the list and paste it on Updated Services box and click Update Options. Thats all. From next time when you will post new post through wordpress, it will automatically ping your blog to those services.
• If you want to update your blog manually then you can use Ping-o-Matic, Pingoat, Feed shark, Pingates, etc.
• You can also use Autopinger. Autopinger is an unique concept. It automatically checks your blog every 30 minutes and automatically pings your blog to major weblog tracking services. You have to just register at Autopinger and add your blog. Thats all.

I think pinging part is over. If something interesting is been found out then definitely will be delivered through Espreson.
