Pinging a new blog post or webpage is a common practice today and since most people use Wordpress, pinging after creating and editing/updating new content is automatic and built in. The default Wordpress install only has one ping service.

There are tons of web pages out there with giant lists of ping services to use and many of them don't work. This page contains a list of reliable and long standing ping services that worked months ago, work now, and will likely work for years from now. In fact one of the ping services in this list forwards your ping to 9 other ping services.

Feel free to copy and paste this list into Wordpress via logging in to your Wordpress admin area, clicking on Settings, then Writing. From there scroll down ...
