Do you ping your own blog?
If yes, then do stop it. I have seen many bloggers, even some professionals, pinging their own blog. Some think that in this way, they do get a linkback to their posts. The link to your post might appear in your related or recent posts. Or, you can deliberately too induce a link in your post. But, this-way linking in your comments section should be avoided.
Moreover, self-pinging is not good as part of SEO. So why not avoid it. In wordpress blog, you can stop self pinging your own blog easily with the help of a plugin called ‘No Self Ping’.

I agree that self-pinging is bad practice and I recommend this plugin too!!
Thanks for informing and keep posting like this.
Hmm..

I will install this plugin asap.
Also what about the old self pings that i have already have in comments. do i need to remove it?
what about if we remove those Trackbacks or Pingbacks while moderation ???
Only pinging wud be helpful for posts ?
@Nihar: Good atleast now you know this plugin.
Its better if you remove it.
@TechBuzz: You can do that but I think the plugin saves you from a lot of overhead. And what if you forget to delete those?
