Having a big ping list added to your WordPress blog is not going to make or break you, but the more exposure, the better, right?
At a recent presentation I gave about using Wordpress, I was adding a slide about the ping list, and decided to count them. I was surprised to see that there were only 46, but that’s what I put in the slide.
Apparently, at some point over the last couple of dozen installations, I dropped off a batch from my list, and even my own blog was running short.
Going back through my files and folders, and even some old blogs, I’ve now recompiled my ping list, and removed the duplicates, and I’m posting them here for your viewing pleasure.
To add to your ping list -
- login to WordPress admin
- go to the options tab
- go to the writing sub tab
- scroll further down than you probably ever have before
- paste into the field
There’s an old thread here at Digitalpoint with some detailed info for better pinging too, but I disagree with the detractors there. My own experience has shown me that it’s NOT a wasted or duplicated effort, I prefer these “manual” pings over Pingomatic, and that the no ping waiting plugin is was very cool. (sorry, the domain is gone!)
That’s it. Feel free to copy and paste my list below, with no reciprocal link required, no thanks necessary, and no paypal donation sent to scott (at) pdxtc.com 
(I would however appreciate any comments added here if you notice anything missing…)

Wow very useful ping lists.Thanks.
March 7th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
very comprehensive list.. have updated all of my blogs… kudos.
April 10th, 2008 at 2:50 am
Thanks for such a comprehensive list. But I understand that using jp consumes tons of bandwidth.
April 10th, 2008 at 4:11 pm
If it’s tons, I’m unaware of that. I’m not saying your wrong, just that I’ve not seen it. No need to leave them if you prefer not to.
May 9th, 2008 at 4:17 am
Great! Thnx but is this list up 2 date?
May 9th, 2008 at 8:42 am
I’ve not updated it since posting, other than removing one that I knew was dead.
Tat was one of the reasons I posted mine because I couldn’t seem to find anything newer.
I’d love to do a more updated list, but I really have no new information to add and no reason to pull any out at this time.
PS - I also don’t know where to find anything newer, and I see there’s nothing more recent on Google, so if somebody has a better resource, please comment here
May 14th, 2008 at 11:05 am
I have tried to find if the list is updated and like you said, there’s nothing more recent on Google!
I also have put the list in Wordpress..so thnx for sharing and your comment!
June 20th, 2008 at 5:40 am
Very nice listing, thanks alot. I compiled it togethere with my existing ping list and remove duplicated one. Total 100 list I got.
June 20th, 2008 at 8:53 am
That’s great, Karirin, and if you’d like to post your list here as a comment, feel free, since it can only improve upon what’s here already.
June 22nd, 2008 at 11:04 pm
Can you add this xmlrpc url to the list? I’ve tested it and it definitely works with wordpress.

http://blogping.unidatum.com/RPC2/ seems to be sort of a weird domain, with pages in the index, yet none available when clicked. What is it?
June 26th, 2008 at 10:38 am
having hard time finding where to post ping list.I am using default WP.when I go to dashboard I see on top Write.help please.Thanks
June 26th, 2008 at 10:52 am
In the admin section, (using WP 2.5x ?) just go to Settings - Writing and scroll to the bottom where you can paste the list…
June 26th, 2008 at 12:29 pm
thanks Scott I will take a look.I did installed the backup plug-in and works.My main concern is how can you tell if a plug-in or wp theme has a back door adware or virus.
June 26th, 2008 at 2:04 pm
Hmm, I suppose I’ve only discovered viruses in WP by visiting it once it’s already corrupted, or seeing it flagged by Google. You could tell though, by using a 3rd party tool like McAfee Site Advisor or mywot.com.

Thank you Scott.
