Spreading the word about your latest blog entry is as easy as pinging a few update services. Most blogs allow you to add different update services (ping sites) to notify. I thought it might be userful to put out a list of the update services I’m currently pinging. If you’re interested in adding any or all of these services to your blog, here’s how (I can only explain how using WordPress - my list of sites can be used on any blog, though).

How to Notify New Ping Sites of Your Updated Blog Posts

  1. Login to your Control Panel
  2. Click on the Options tab, followed by the Writing tab.
  3. Scroll to the bottom of the page and add whatever services you’d like to the Update Services box.

This list includes all the ping services I’ve been able to locate. Feel free to use it as you wish.

If you have any additional services that you ping, let me know! I’d love to build this into a massive listing of all ping services.

Manual Ping Sites

There are a few good ping sites that will allow you to manually let them know of updates. These are included in the above list, but for those people who need to do things by hand, this should help.
