Succeeding With

Today, I will be sharing my second installation of this make money blogging series, “Succeeding With Technorati”. I believe most bloggers out there know what Technorati is but how many of them are putting it to good use? For the benefit of those who do not know what Technorati is, Technorati is a blog directory where you can submit your blog amongst others and get maximum exposure from the community.

You can submit your blog to Technorati at: http://www.technorati.com Remember to claim it thereafter!

So much about submitting your blog, even a first grader can do it. Here comes the beef of this topic, how can Technorati help in branding and driving traffic to your blog? Warning: Its gonna be another lengthy post.

1. Technorati Authority – Each link from a unique blog will increase your authority by one, meaning you can only get one authority from each blog no matter how many links they throw to you. There are several ways that you can use to build up your authority. Something which I am also working on right now! The higher your authority, the higher your blog is ranked on Technorati. My blog has climbed more than 5,000,000 positions over the past 2 weeks and I thought it would be nice to share what I have been doing.

As cheesey as this can get, you may use the same technique as you are using to build backlinks for SEO. It has the same effect on getting authority for Technorati.

Become the Top Commentator. This is one of the less known trick to most people I believe. When you become the top commentator, you will get a backlink from the blog automatically and it is recognised by Technorati. I reward my readers with dofollow links for Top Commentators so feel free to leave comments and see if you can hit the top position. Constructive comments that is.

2. Using Technorati tags – Getting into more categories in Technorati and other blog search engines will get you more links from them, exposing you to other bloggers and webmasters that can link to you. To easily create Technorati tags, use this simple tool: Tag Generator. All you have to do is type in the keyword, and the tool will make the code for the tag.

3. Technorati Fave – Do you know that you are able to drive free targeted traffic by increasing your tech fave? It may be a daunting task to get into the list of Top 100 Linked Blogs but it is easier to get into the Top 100 Most Favourited Blogs. In actual fact, there are many people searching for blogs Technorati and the best way to get noticed is to be in the Top 100 list. Together with your authority that you have gained, more tech fave would give your blog a higher value in the blogosphere. This is prestiege that many sought after and it is also one of the valuating factor that advertisers look at it. Now, how do can you get so many faves in such a strong competing market? I have come up with a Technorati Fave Exchange Program and you may click the link below to participate. Its free, let’s just spread the community love.

Technorati Fave Exchange Program

I hope you will be able to participate actively in this exchange program. This is the best way to go about increasing your authority and tech fave in the shortest time possible. Some people might detest exchanges but I know most people love it. Unique content may be a good way to get you some fave and authority but it is going to be a long process. BUT, never stop sharing good content!

I will be building up a list of Technorati Fave Exchange blogs, so if you want to get your blog listed, please take note of the second pointer and just follow the instructions. I wish you success in building up your readership and traffic with Technorati and lets hit the Top 100 Most Favourited list together!
