The title says it all. Which pinging do you guys recommend? pingmyblog.com or ping-o-matic.com? I know that i am supposed to ping my blog after every post but which one do you guys (and ladies!) recommend! I'm not sure but i'm using both of them until someone tells me otherwise!
Thanx for any help!

Thanx. I didn't know anything about pingoat.com. but i will use it in the future. Does it matter if you use all three?

Hi Zulu,
The purpose of a ping is to let indexing sites know that you've updated or added something to your site. Don't ping unless you have done so or the pinging services may blacklist you.
Though you can alternate your use of the various pinging services, don't use more than one service for a single update.
Don't abuse the tool and it won't abuse you ;)

If you have created a blog in wordpress, it should automatically ping your blog after every change. I personally use pingomatic but i am sure they all do the same job

Hello,
Thank you for that information, Newbie Shield. I didn't know you could be penalised for more than one pinging organization. Since I have at least 92 on my blog, I think I had better change that.

the only reason i ping from more than one place is because some of
them fail sometimes. And some ping sites have more options than
others, so i check the option that wasnt available on the other ping sites.

That is a great idea newbiz! I have recently only used ping-o-matic and have found it is definitely drawing visitors to my blog! I will have to check out some other ping sites though!
