XML-RPC (Automated Pinging)

What is a XML-RPC?

XML-RPC stands for XML Remote Procedure Call. In laymans term, it lets you send and receive data using a specific XML format.


Where is your XML-RPC Server?

You can access it at pinger.blogflux.com/rpc/

For those that need a breakdown, it is:

  • Host: pinger.blogflux.com
  • Path: /rpc/
  • Port: 80

So how do I use it?

Most blog software (such as Movable Type or WordPress) lets you enter a URL (or URI) to ping. Put http://pinger.blogflux.com/rpc in that field. Now every time you add a new post, your blog software will automatically use our Pinger!


So which ping format do you support?

Our XML-RPC server supports both weblogUpdates.ping and weblogUpdates.extendedPing.

Even if your software already provides out of the box pinging support, it is usually to only one service. Our service pings 10 while making it very easy. See the actual pings go through in real time.


This pinging thing makes me want my mommy!
