If you’ve visited my Blogrolls page, you would have noticed that I use a Blogrolling script which tells me which blogs have been updated in the last 12 hours and not surprisingly, only Skeet’s and Daniel’s blogs are indicated as “updated” all the time.

That is because many of us do not ping Blogrolling.

So girls and boys, if you’re using WordPress, you may want to set your blog to ping Blogrolling so that your blog is marked as “updated” every time you publish a new post (unless you don’t want anybody to know that you’ve just updated your blog).

To ping Blogrolling, follow these 3-simple-steps (for WordPress-powered blogs only):

  1. Go to your Dashboard > Options > Writing
  2. Under Update Services, add this line of URL into the box: http://rpc.blogrolling.com/pinger/
  3. Click Update Options to save the changes.

And you’re done! :D

    Thanks! I knew there was a way to do it automatically. Thanks so much. I don’t have to manually do it anymore. I’m including this in my spotlight for this coming week. I’m focusing on blogging tips.
