How to Ping your blog without spending all day doing it. Its as easy as pie.

Assuming you may not know the benefit of pinging your blog, its how you get word out to the search engines that you have something they haven’t seen before. Now that’s like calling out “you hoo” to a bull while you’re waving a red flag – most likely its going to head your way. While it may not be a good thing with a bull, its a GREAT thing with a search engine and your blog.

And WordPress helps you do it quickly. Once you’re in the ADMIN area of your wordpress site, go to SETTINGS by clicking on it.

Under SETTINGS – look for WRITING and click on that.

Then scroll down for Services and you’ll see a box that probably only contains “http://rpc.pingomatic.com/” – you’re there.

Below here is a list including that first one of a couple of services that will automatically ping your blog. Copy them now and paste them in that box and remember to hit save/update.
