Google’s Blog Pinger

ADVERTISEMENTS

announced today that you can now ping their service to let them know when you have updated your blog.

If you own a WordPress blog, you can ping them automatically everytime you post by going to ‘update services’ under options/writing and adding http://blogsearch.google.com/ping/RPC2 to a new line.

Note: Doing this may increase the time to publish a post.
