Windows Live Writer can be configured to automatically ping servers, such as Ping-o-Matic, each time you publish a new post to your blog. This updates the selected server(s) about the updated blog content so that it can be added to the desired search engine or service.


1. Open Windows Live Writer.

2. Click Tools and select Preferences.

3. Select Ping Servers from the left pane.

4. Check the Send pings to the URLs below checkbox. Input the URLs of the servers that you want notified of the new content, one per line.

5. Click OK.
