Get indexed by Technorati

The team at ZDNet have recently made some changes to the way the links are constructed which means that your blog posts are now indexable by Technorati. It's a bit fiddly to set up but worthwhile as it drives extra traffic to your blog and improves your visibility in the blogosphere. Here's How: -

1. If you are not already a member, register at Technorati

2. Follow the instructions on the site to claim your blog

3. Cut and paste your Technorati profile code into the end of your next blog post. It should look like mine in my previous post

4. Go back to Technorati and "Ping" the blog to have it indexed.

There are a couple of limitations at the moment: -

1. It will only index the articles that appear on the main blog page so it won't go back and index older content.

2. There isn't an automatic ping so you'll have to go to Technorati and manually ping each time you make a posting.

Apart from that, it seems to work perfectly. It sometimes takes up to 30 minutes or more for the content to appear in the Technorati index so be patient.

Happy blogging!
