I just need clarification on something:
By default, does WordPress 2.02 ping certain blog search engines to let them know the blog has been updated? Or if it does not, I guess I need to install a plugin, right?
tks!
Need clarification on how WP pings other sites (6 posts)

You don't need clarification. You need to look around in the admin panel of your blog :)
Options > Writing. -

clarification=Something that serves to explain.You do not need a plugin. In the admin panel go to options->Writing and put this in the update services;
http://rpc.pingomatic.com/
http://ping.weblogs.se/
http://blogmatcher.com/u.php
http://coreblog.org/ping/
http://www.blogpeople.net/servlet/weblogUpdates

http://xmlrpc.blogg.de
http://1470.net/api/ping
http://bblog.com/ping.php
http://blog.goo.ne.jp/XMLRPCThis will ping the services every time you ad a new post.
A plugin that would be advised is the technorati plugin to add tags to your post. (do a search in that)

OK, so here is a clarification for you, blips!
Pinging too many update services (that might ping the same sites over and over) might get you banned. Think twice before adding an endless list of update services! Too many might do more harm than good.

Posted 6 years ago #one master service, like pingomatic or pingoat, etc., should be enough to 'get the ball rolling'. most decent services hook off the top dozen major ones for cascading updates.

Posted 6 years ago #Right, thank you. I used moveabletype for a long time and knew that by default a few services were included, so I didn't know if I should manually add or do it via a plugin on WP. This is useful info and I appreciate the help. :)
