Ping Google from blogCFC
Until not too long ago, Google did not allow you to ping their blog search engine, but they finally added support for it. They support XMP-RPC and REST pings... for BlogCFC users, both are in theory rather easy. A couple years ago I wrote a generic XML-RPC client for blogCFC, which if you're using, you can easily ping Google using this method, however, if you're not, it's just as easy ... BlogCFC can ping urls using regular http gets / REST if you specify the URL in the config.ini.cfm file. Simple find the pings parameter and add the following line:
http://blogsearch.google.com/ping?name=[yourBlogName]&url=[yourBlogURL]&changesURL=[yourBlogRSSURL]
Can't get any easier... if you need more info, you can check the ping API docs.
