Ping your blog, if you dont already

In today’s world blogging is very competitive. Roughly, out of the 100 blogs that are published only one contains actual content. Remaining only contain the same content or transformed into their own words. Very few do manage to add value to the original content.

This makes the promotion of your blog very challenging atleast till the time you get enough traffic to your site. This is where some of the pinging sites can be very useful. If you are able to bring traffic to your website that can fetch good revenue though advertisements.

Pinging sites notifies the servers that keep track of blogs that a new blog has been posted. There are many such pinging websites a list of those is mentioned below and all of them are free.


some of the blogging sites like wordpress provide a way to automatically ping everytime you publish a post. You just have to mention the address of the sites that you want to ping.

Pinging can be useful only after submitting your blog to those blog directories. Pinging would say success even though you website is not listed in that directory.
