I have a simple service where you can launch your own blog. The service is based on one domain and users get folders for their new blogs. So it's www.MyService.com/user1 www.MyService.com/user2 etc. I want to introduce automatic pinging and use Pingomatic for this purpose. There are about 70 users so far and in most cases they update their blogs daily. Do you think my domain will get banned in Pingomatic for pinging so many blogs within one domain? I know it's impossible to ping Pingoat with 2 blogs within the same domain (at least within a short time period like 5 mins or something like that). How about Pingomatic?
Do you manually ping each URL (via Pingomatic) seperately or do you have an automated way of doing it? Usually pinging a site once evry 3 days is enough. I guess you could always use a range of proxys?
Why not just ping when new content is available? If you ping everyday one right after the other, that may cause problems. I don;t think you'll get banned just for 70 users but I have to admit what you;re doing isn't that ethical.
Who said that? All top bloggers use to write 4/5 blogs everyday and ping 4/5 times a day. But they are never banned.
That's because the ping matches up with their new content. Pinging just for the heck of it may lead to a ban as that's not what the ping system is supposed to be used for.
