Oh, my, ya’ll are making this a lot harder than it needs to be. Pinging your backlinks, I think, is a minor SERP increaser, importnat to do but not as important as, say, a good external linking program.

We did a lot of research in North American search and decided that technorati and pingomatic were the 80% solution.

Heck, if you have Joomla or a broken network or a vendor firewall blocking your pings, you can just use our client based backlink pinger once a month or so.

Kyle, I think you can remove Icerocket. It’s in Pingomatic.

You have pingomatic listed twice for one thing. Also isn’t the point of pingomatic to ping lots of other services so you don’t need a ridiculous list like this loaded? I’ll admit I’m not the authority on this, but you really need to be more careful in posting things like this. Lots of users are going to just copy the list and start spamming sites as Andy mentioned. I should probably recheck this list before I post it here, but I ONLY ping the following services.

http://www.blogpeople.net/servlet/weblogUpdates
http://bulkfeeds.net/rpc
http://ping.myblog.jp
http://ping.bloggers.jp/rpc/
http://bblog.com/ping.php
http://rpc.icerocket.com:10080/

People are going to end up copying the whole list into their WordPress and spamming the hell out of foreign language sites without knowing it.

It is worth checking, for instance Pingoat cancelled their ping service around 18 months ago, and only provide a web based service, unless John Reese switched it back on after he took over the site.

Dev do you actually monitor your pings using this list to see whether your pings are being rejected (WP doesn’t do this by default)

You have loads of non English ping servers listed, and servers that no longer function

There is also a ton of reduncancy which will produce little to no additional benefit
