Trackback, How Long?

  • If one enters a trackback to another blog, how long should that take to show up on the other blog? Thanks.

    That depends on how fast the other server is, how quickly the other blog’s software can process the trackback, whether or not the other blog’s author is moderating trackbacks, and whether or not the other blog’s author has disabled trackbacks entirely. IOW, I have no clue.

    Their are variables:

    Does the other blog have moderation turned on. If so it won’t show til the owner looks at it and decides to post your trackback

    How fast are the two servers. yours and his.

    With no moderation and no other “speed issues” it should take seconds.

    Is there a way to look at someone’s blog and tell what their “trackback” policies are?

    Nope, you’ll have to email the blog’s author.
