MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer : Free WordPress Plugin
|
Ping Optimizer? – What is “Ping”? It sounds like something from a Monty Python hospital sketch: “The machine that goes ping”. In fact it’s a very powerful tool for getting your blog indexed by search-engines, getting your blog added to linked directories, recently updated blog lists, etc. The Problem: There is a problem, though: If used improperly, pinging can get your blog blacklisted as a ping-spammer. To make things worse, WordPress has a serious flaw built into it that can make this happen a lot quicker than you’d ever think. – In fact; you may already have been, unknowingly, blacklisted! Why? Because you’ve been using WordPress raw and without this plugin. – No word of a lie. Allow me to explain: – By default WordPress pings whenever you post a new topic in your blog. – ‘Nothing wrong with that; in fact that’s a good thing. – However not only does WordPress ping every time you publish a new post; it also pings every time you update a post too. If you edit a post 10 times then WordPress will send 10 pings. It doesn’t matter how small or big a change you make, WordPress always pings whenever you edit. When it pings it doesn’t actually say which post has been updated; the ping just sends the homepage link to your blog. - If you were to write a post and publish it, then update it 10 times in the course of a couple of hours; that’s 11 identical pings issued in 60 minutes. Software on remote machines somewhere may see this and think “spammer” straight away – and blacklist your blog. This problem still exists in the latest versions of WordPress at time of writing. That’s not the whole extent of the problem, though: If, for some reason best known to you, you’re still using a version of WordPress older than 2.1, then you schedule a post to be published, WordPress send out a ping, even though your post hasn’t actually been published yet. If you think that’s a little crazy; then think what happens when you schedule publication of more than one post? WordPress sends out multiple pings. Once again software on remote machines somewhere may see this and think “spammer” straight away – and blacklist your blog. Although the future-post ping problem has now been fixed in recent versions of WordPress, the update pinging problem still exists. The Solution: The solution is to install MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer plugin MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer plugin corrects WordPress’s pinging system and solves all the problems listed above for even the latest version of WordPress. After you have it installed and activated; the following happens: –
The plugin is free; but it’s released as “Reviewware”: This means that if you find the plugin useful then a decent review of the plugin in your blog would be highly appreciated by the writers. Not only will this give due credit, but it’ll also spread the word and thereby notify others who would also benefit from installing the plugin. If you don’t want to write a review than it’s not compulsory to do so; but it would have been appreciated. - So how do I get hold of this plugin? Easy: Click thisdownload link.
