Pingoat: A New Service for Promoting Your Blog

After blogging on how to save a step with Ping-o-Matic and use it for multiple blogs, Denise Wakeman and Arnoud alerted me Pingoat, a competing ping service.

So far, it's been a great experience.

First off, it's much faster than Ping-o-Matic. It pings about 50 different services, categorized into General, Non-English & Special.

The site is clean and fast-loading. It's got a blog, a community forum, and even a Google sitemap generator, if you're so inclined.

But perhaps best of all, it appears that Kailash Nadh, the site owner and a recent high school graduate from Kerala, India, is adamant about keeping spam blogs from using his service! He regularly blacklists blogs that appear to be automated, with no original content.

He even has a section of his Pingoat forum dedicated to people who have been blacklisted feel they have been wrongly accused. It makes for great reading, even when you should have gone to bed hours ago. Here's a typical rejection slip:

First i would like to welcome you to the pingoat.com community forums.

After reviewing your blog, and reading your dispute statement in detail, we have come to this conclusion:

Your blog will remain blacklisted. your blog is very blatantly fed via a content generator, however if this is truly not the case, this would be required to be proven on your end, it may not be fed via a content generator, however it strongly appears as so, please re-evaluate the blog and adjust whats needed

Our suggestion to getting your blog removed from our blacklist:

If it is spam and you have no intention upon creating your own unique content, then i am sorry to tell you, that pingoat will not allow you to ping the blog

And last but not least, stop spamming

That's just great stuff.

Rich! I agree. Pingoat.com is easy to use, and fast! You don't have to fill out a dissertation form to use it!
