Is there a pinging tool to ping all sites at once

[ClaireH-184886]

hi, i am just wondering if there is a tool that you can put on your toolbar that allows you to ping all the sites at once. The last thing i want to keep doing is to go through every single one and ping my article. I would like to find a tool that does it all for me, can anyone let me know if there is one out there.

many thanks

we get a great deal of traffic from huffington post as they run with a lot of our stories which is great, so a huge amount of traffic from there and from other sites. But i want to try and tap into the bookmarking sites as well as the ping services

i get a lot of traffic from stumble, digg, was getting a load of traffic from reddit but stopped using it as it was not the market i was going for.

what i would like to do is, to have a tool in my desktop where i can just ping to all the sites at once, and then have one where i can ping to all the bookmarking sites at once as well.

i bought one joomla plugin for the ping and it broke my site, was bringing up errors. i bought that a few weeks ago and sent the owners a few emails for support asking what the problem was and never received an email back. i contacted them again today and still not received any reply from them.

seems they are happy to take your money but not to reply.

Pinging is not the same as submitting your post to a social bookmarking site. There are other tools to do that.

Are you submitting to bookmarking sites now? Are you seeing any traffic from them in Google Analytics? If you're not seeing any traffic, I wouldn't worry too much about finding the perfect solution and I'd just spend your time focusing on the content itself.

hi zachary. I have used ping o matic in the past, but i am looking for something that will ping all the major ping services as well as posting my info on all the bookmarking sites that are available. pingfm was a good one until they changed. I work in joomla so would not have a clue on how to write my own script to do this for me. many thanks

Is this for one of your Joomla sites? Have you searched in the extensions directory for Joomla? A search for [joomla bing] turns up plugins that will automatically ping services when you publish an article.

http://pingomatic.com/ is a very popular one. Keep in mind that many platforms such as WordPress do this automatically for you.

If you need a larger list, you should write your own script to do so. Pinging a list of URLs would be very easy to do. Ping O Matic should do the job, however.

As far as using a browser addon, why would you need that?
