		<description>Oops, sorry, it omitted the code for the autodiscovery tag (after the words &quot;looks like this:&quot;), and I don&#039;t know how to add it here so that it would get published.

I guess you&#039;ll have to take it from that report. ;)

		<description>Hi Laura,

I just saw your this blog, and I love it. :)

Something about pingomatic, I&#039;d like to add.

Not many people pay attention when they come to pinogmatic.com, that they enter there their *blog* URL, and more than a half, I think, of the servers pingomatic pings, get pings for feeds, not blogs.

So if people don&#039;t start their feeds as you showed in the post, they&#039;ll not use more than a half of the pings pingomatic sends. But that&#039;s not all.

You write there your blog URL, so what pingomatic does to fetch this feed URL, it uses the autodiscovery tags. (auto-what?? ;))

looks like this:



You should add it between the HEAD tags of your blog template.

Otherwise you ping only blog directories, which is a pity. ;))

Btw, Blogger, once you tell it to publish a feed for you, *will* add the autodiscovery tag, but only for the Atom feed that it publishes. It&#039;s better to transfer the feed to FeedBurner to have the stats, RSS feed format etc., and then you have to manually add that autodiscovery tag for your feed at FeedBurner.

There&#039;s more to it, I can&#039;t write it all here. :)

I have more detailed information on Blogger settings in the free report available from http://rss-submission-service.com

Laura, I sent you an email now, could you please tell me if you got it?

Thank you, 
and keep up your wonderful blogging.
Olga.
