When you link to a website you can send it a Webmention to notify it and then that website may display your post as a comment, like, or other response, and presto, you’re having a conversation from one site to another!
A <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/" rel="nofollow ugc">Webmention</a> is a notification that one URL links to another. Sending a Webmention is not limited to blog posts, and can be used for additional kinds of content and responses as well.
For example, a response can be an RSVP to an event, an indication that someone “likes” another post, a “bookmark” of another post, and many others. Webmention enables these interactions to happen across different websites, enabling a distributed social web.
The Webmention plugin supports the Webmention protocol, giving you support for sending and receiving Webmentions. It offers a simple built in presentation.

Webmention

Easiest way to integrate Webmentions!

This is fantastic. I joined indieweb a few days ago. Last night I wanted to know "So what actually does the technical implementation of a WebMention look like?". I am now working on improving my understanding and perhaps I'll create some documentation that I find easier than the w3c spec or a WP plugin.

Great work, very patient team.

Wonderful

A good plugin that does something very useful. Love the indieweb and Matthias Pfeferle does such great work
