• Is there any plugins that automatically send out trackbacks and pingbacks to blogs you linked to?

    Also, what is the difference? And is one better than another?

  • neither of those requite a plugin — thats a standard fucntionality in nearly all blogging packages, WP included.

    There is no difference really other than the way theyre sent.

    sending pingbacks when you link to a site is configurable inside your wp-admin: options –> discussion:

    very first checkbox..

    Attempt to notify any Weblogs linked to from the article (slows down posting.)

    a box for sending trackbacks exists on every write post page

    Ok, so whats the correct link to submit a trackback/pingback?

    I don’t understand the question.
    For PB – you include a link in your post to the other blog’s post.
    For TB you put the TB URL of the other blog’s post in the proper field.

    Pingbacks are fully automatic. When you link to anywhere in a post, WordPress searches for a pingback and if it can, it sends one.

    Trackbacks are manual. You use the trackback section at the bottom of the post page to send those. 99% of the time, you don’t have to bother, simply linking to another site will cause a pingback to work, making the trackback unnecessary.
