Where is Pingoat

August 4th, 2008 by Rose DesRochers · 9 Comments

Pingoat.com, a service that pings various websites when your blog is updated, has been offline for over a month now. When you go to pingoat.com you are greeted with a blank white page that says they are currently doing system maintenance. I didn’t notice this before, because Wordpress pings various services for me. Wordpress users can modify their ping list on the Control Panel, then Options, then Writing.


Before I started using Pingoat I used to use Pingomatic.com.

ping.in offers a similar service to that offered by Pingoat.

What ping service do you use?

If you liked this post, why not buy me a coffee?

    I don’t use any ping service currently. I get so little traffic from searches anyway I’m not sure it would be that beneficial.

    Hmmm. Perhaps I could improve that by pinging some of those services, lol.

    I only ping on Technorati—until this post had never heard of these people. A month to do site maintenance sounds excessive?

    I don’t even know what that is or how it is useful. I’m not very blog bright. I just type hoping that someone who wants a laugh will stumble on to my site and giggle!

    Hi Rose thanks for the link, I used to use ping omatic, but lately it says I’ve already pinged, which I haven’t any ideas why :?:

    Not sure what’s up with Pingoat…Unfortunate at best. Thanks for the ping.in link though…that one was new to me.

    Actually yes…Pingoat showed up yesterday for me, though I had almost ceased to check it so I don’t really know when it came back….but nonetheless, I’m glad it’s back.
