Ping With Pingomatic or Pingoat
Recently I started switching my sites over to Blogger.com, I made this decision when they came out with the Microsoft Word add-on and I have been very happy with everything about publishing with Word.
I really can’t say enough good things about Blogger/Word publishing.
When you add content to your site it never hurts to let some other sites know about it. So there are ping services you can use.
Very briefly pinging is sending a message that you have something new on your site to notify other sites so they can come and check it out. It’s used with RSS files that most all blogs will create for you.
Anyway, I went to www.pingoat.com and filled out the form to ping my site and this is what I got:
Another site that you can use to send out pings is:
www.pingomatic.com
I am not convinced that pinging really helps a new site that much, but it can’t hurt and it does not take that much time.
*** Originally when I posted this I was having a really bad day and I kind of snapped and called Pingoat idiots for banning my site.
I received a comment from Pingoat that shows he has a sense of humor – I appreciate that, it was a very mature way to handle the situation. I was wrong to start name calling when things didn’t work for me the first time and it looks like I need to be more careful about posting when I am in a bad mood.

- Hold it right there!! You have been blacklisted ! This is not because of the frequency of the pings, but due to the possible objectionable/non genuine nature of the blog.
