Ping.fm — The Holy Grail Of Social Media Marketing

August 9, 2008

ping.fm

Ping.Fm is an online service with a sole purpose of making it easy to share your posts with the world. You can use it to update all the social media sites at once. It supports a whooping 28 social media services. You need the beta code to register (free) which I’ll share at the end of this post. So instead of publishing a post and then notifying social media about the new content on one at a time basis, head on to Ping.fm. But WordPress bloggers have more good news. There’s a WordPress plugin that saves you going to the Ping.fm site and login every time you post. Grab this incredible plugin named PingPress.fm from http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/pingpressfm/

Here’s the humungous list of social services that it supports.

  1. Twitter
  2. Facebook
  3. Plurk
  4. Pownce
  5. MySpace
  6. LinkedIn
  7. Tumblr
  8. Identi.ca
  9. Brightkite
  10. FriendFeed
  11. Jaiku
  12. Blogger
  13. Plaxo Pulse
  14. LiveJournal
  15. Bebo
  16. hi5
  17. Mashable
  18. kwippy
  19. Xanga
  20. WordPress.com
  21. A Custom URL

If you thought that was the and of it, think again. Here’s a list of other services that it supports.

  1. AOL Instant Messenger
  2. Google Talk (GTalk)
  3. Yahoo! Messenger
  4. Windows Live Messenger
  5. iGoogle Gadget
  6. Facebook Application
  7. iPhone Web App
  8. Mobile App (WAP)

Now while you may eagerly want to registerand go posting, they are in beta andregistration is not public. You would need a beta code to register. To take part in the beta, the current code is “pingitlikeitshot”. So what are you waiting for?
