RSS Ping List

It may seem obvious, but you need to ping many services after you post to your blog. Ping-o-matic (default Wordpress ping service) does not ping all the services you need to syndicate your blogs and get them spidered. Neither does blogspot, MSN, or Livejournal.

While Pingoat is a great new pinging service, they have a pretty good spam filter so you can’t exactly use them for an army of splogs.

Here is the RSS ping list the we’ve been using.

http://xping.pubsub.com/ping/
http://api.my.yahoo.com/rss/ping
http://api.moreover.com/ping
http://rpc.icerocket.com:10080/

Our goal is not to ping every service, only the more popular / important ones. Our list was over 50 at one point, but some ping locations often timed out and/or did not yield any measurable incremental benefit.

Please comment with:
a. Suggestions for other important English language ping locations
b. Discussion and Suggestions for important non-English RSS ping locations (include what language the locations is for)
c. If services like technorati.jp are worth pinging if you are already pinging technorati and your blog is english only

Both comments and pings are currently closed.

    I have a question about sblogs. Say Im trying to get a site indexed so I setup a wp blog on a seperate domain. I begin posting to it daily with rss feeds from my site. After each post, it pings and in turn gets the spiders to it. Is that enough or should I be getting links to the blog from blog directories, article submissions etc?

  4. [...] The SEO Black Hat blog has a good list of sites to ping from your blog. At the moment I’m only using Pingomatic but I’d been interested in hearing from others if they’d recommend some of these sites or others not mentioned. [...]

  5. The Topic Exchange no longer accepts pings on /RPC2 due to the load on the site caused by floods of pings from spammers. (We now only accept pings through the feedmesh – and even then, not all the time). So don’t bother with http://topicexchange.com/RPC2 – pinging that no longer does anything.

  8. [...] Heute hatte ich dann mal gesucht was andere so alles anpingen und bin dabei auf die Auflistung von seoblackhat.com gestossen. Nicht das ich was mit “Black Hat SEO” zu tun hätte, aber als Suchmaschinenoptimierer “landet” man irgendwie immer zuerst bei “Gleichgesinnten”, bzw. klickt zuerst auf Links die etwas mit Suchmaschinenoptimierung und dem eigentlich gesuchten Thema haben … ;-) Hier wurde unter anderem der Blog-Ping-Dienst von Pingoat positiv erwähnt, der über die oben aufgeführten Blog-Verzeichnisse hinaus auch noch noch folgende weitere Dienste anpingt: Allgemeine Blog-Verzeichnisse: [...]
