If you have sites up you probably have the seo tweaked for Google. This is fine because Bing will pick up your info. Many have wondered if it is possible to add Bing to the wordpress pinglist. Not really. The best way to ping Bing is to do so manually by submitting your xml sitemap.

The format for submitting your sitemap to the Bing search engine is very simple. Open a browser and add the url in the address field. Done! The corrrect format is, with this site as example:

http://www.bing.com/webmaster/ping.aspx?siteMap=http://www.ibseo.com/sitemap.xml

Obviously, if you want, you can add this code to your pinglist but I just do it manually now and then. If your submission goes through you immediately get a confirmation on the page.

Don´t underestimate Bing as a source of organic webtraffic. The number of searches on Bing have more than doubled during last year (in development) and this year may well see an even faster growth as it moves out of Beta.

Some people have very long pinglists that tend to gow over time but a shorter one will be more beneficial in the long run since many services overlap and you risk pinging the same several times. Also, take note that http://pingomatic.com/ actually relays your ping to the majority of services on the ping list above.

If you want to be absolutely sure not to duplicate ping, just leave the default ping service http://pingomatic.com/ and only add services that are not listed on their site.
