    Keep the blog pinging to get a small amount of traffic from sites like technorati :)

    And also http://pingomatic.com/ helps a lot.

    It is a type of service which lets those websites know that you have some fresh content in your blog.

    This is what i know about it.

    You need to ping every time you have a new post. I see you're using Wordpress. Wordpress is set up by default to send a ping every time you post so you should be OK,.

    By default wordpress sends a ping to pingomatic.com Pingomatic is like a "meta-ping" serive, it will forward your ping to a bunch of other services that accept ping. Take a look at this article:
