I noticed recently that my Apache Error Log contained lots of local client errors.
Like this…
[Wed Feb 13 12:03:12 2013] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /var/www/html/pinger [Wed Feb 13 12:03:12 2013] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /var/www/html/404.shtml [Wed Feb 13 12:03:12 2013] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /var/www/html/pinger [Wed Feb 13 12:03:12 2013] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /var/www/html/404.shtml [Wed Feb 13 12:04:21 2013] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /var/www/html/pinger [Wed Feb 13 12:04:21 2013] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /var/www/html/404.shtml [Wed Feb 13 12:04:21 2013] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /var/www/html/pinger [Wed Feb 13 12:04:21 2013] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /var/www/html/404.shtml
I did a quick Google search and it would appear that the problem is down to the Update Services that i have enabled in Settings > Writing
I manually checked all the services i had enabled to ping on writing posts and 90% of them were offline.
I did a bit of research and came across the best ping services that i could find to ensure my posts get maximum exposure on all my blogs.
