When I started using Wordpress for the first time I did not realize it auto-ping’s via Pingomatic whenever you publish a new post, page or do updates. While fiddling to find out how Wordpress operates a ping must have been generated every few minutes – not very healthy because search engines can see it as spam and ban your blog.
Luckily that blog survived and I discovered this problem in time to prevent this. When I stumbled upon this plugin I grabbed and installed it immediately. It works like a charm and I don’t have to worry about unnecessary pings anymore.
It is a free plugin from MaxBlogPress and can be configured to disable or limit pings within a set time. According to me a must have if you are using Wordpress!
