I was going to say the same thing as Aditya. I have numerous blogs on my mediatemple server and we had similar issues when moving them from a simple godaddy account. Try resetting your ping service in your wp control panel.

Hey Ryan,
prolly a shot in the dark but I know when I first got added to the mxna it was using a redirect to get to my rss feed. when I moved my stuff, I had to email MM get the link updated. That took me almost a month to figure out.

My sites are hosted on Media Temple, and RSS on FeedBurner, but haven’t encountered this problem. I think you can safely rule out the web host being the problem.

Are you pinging those services? Maybe the auto-ping was disabled during the wordpress migration

btw, your photo in the ‘About’ section on the right-bar is broken.

That’s kind of what I’m wondering. Maybe they grab the IP address which has now changed.

For some reason, DNS updates seem to often leave feed pointers untouched in the DNS cache of aggregators. Not sure why, though. That may be the issue. Previous IP address and content are still cached, perhaps?

I have no idea why, but I’m glad I went to visit the page today to check out why my feed had been so quiet lately!

Got some catching up to do on posts

I have had a number of issues with Technorati + Feedburner. In that case, it was because I was not providing an atom feed that Technorati liked. When I turn off RSS and provide just an atom feed via FB, Technorati picks up my new posts. Technorati staff were slow to respond, and not that helpful once they did.

I actually need to move to a new blog engine to provide something they’ll deal with.

This may be a similar issue.
