Pinging Technorati

saurabh.sauron · 30-03-2006, 10:11 PM

if u update ur blog, how do u inform technorati about it being updated?

in technorati, this information was there :-

Log in to your WordPress weblog.

Select "Options" from the top menu.

Select "Writing" from the sub-menu.

The last option on the page is "Update Services." Add Technorati's ping server as a new line within the Update Services text box.
http://rpc.technorati.com/rpc/ping

If Ping-o-Matic (http://rpc.pingomatic.com/) appears in the text box you are configured to ping Technorati as well as many other ping locations via a relay service. We recommend pinging Technorati directly with every new post and update.

but Update Services was not there. pls help
thnx

Blogger by default pings weblog.com from which technorati gets after some time. But I prefer to ping technorati directly using my blog's ping url after I update my blog. As an example, my blog's url would be:

Code:

technorati.com/ping/http://myxp.blogspot.com?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmyxp.blogspot.com&ip=1

do i need to just add this to the template? or somewhere else?

No, this is supposed to be typed in the address bar. I don't type it everytime, of course, since it'll be in the auto-completed as soon as I type "te".

If you add Pingomatic to your ping list, it will ping Technorati as well as many other servers for you ..
Pingomatic is active by default in WordPress ..
