Default Sites to Ping your blogs

Getting a blog noticed can be difficult, but one of the easiest ways to get noticed is to simply send a "ping" to various sites that will take note, and list your content because of it.

Think of a ping as like a "Hey, I'm over here" shout, or even a form of autosubmission. It immediately means that the site you are pinging will take notice of what you have posted.

Blog software will usually allow you to simply set up a list of sites to ping in one of the settings - so this means that the blog software will automatically send a ping everytime you post.

That means every post - every single post - that you make, can be processed by a range of sites.

Some ping sites are likely already included in your blog ping list, such as blo.gs or technocrati. However, there are far more sites that will accept a ping.

And here's a pretty good list of them.

Firstly, there's Pingomatic, which attempts to bring a number of ping services all together under one ping:

http://pingomatic.com/

This will ping the following sites (not always successfully):

Weblogs.com
Blo.gs
Technorati
Feed Burner
Syndic8
NewsGator
Feedster
My Yahoo!
PubSub.com
Blogdigger
BlogRolling
BlogStreet
Moreover
Weblogalot
Audio.Weblogs
RubHub
A2B GeoLocation
BlogShares

Thanks to Eliottback for the following list:

Default Re: Sites to Ping your blogs

blogger.com allows automatic inbuilt pings though i am not sure how much effective it is. I am facing a problem with technorati where when i log in technorati says my blog hasn't been updates in so many days as in reality i have updates it today too...even when i manually ping technorati using their ping service, the section still says blog updated 80 days ago..dont know what causes it though..i have abandoned trying to fix it now...

A link can be inserted into your blog entries that allows you to ping more one blog service at once. I use one that I got from Ekstreme.com. It is very handy.

Pinging your blog is indeed a great way to let search engines know that you have updated the content of your blog...
