Claiming my blog at Technorati

Try and Try Again
By Marvin Double


If you happen to be reading this post and wonder what the heck it's about here's an explanation.
I've had an account with technorati for some time now but somethings been missing. Technorati allows you to claim your blog, which could be through of as registering it, using a special feature.

I'm embarrassed to say even though I know the value of technorati, especially for research I've somehow managed to never go through the process of getting my blog claim finished. I had at it more than once but somehow things always went wrong and the claim was just never completed.
What's the point in writing about this little technical fax pas? Simply to advise that if you also have a blog you should take the time and effort to claim it at technorati. The process is pretty simple. You click on the claim your blog here link in your profile. You'll then copy some HTML code into a blog post or side bar, as I've done here and then save the post or update the blog.

After returning to technorati you then click the "complete claim" button and wait. If all goes well in a short while your blog will be officially claimed making it easier for your posts to be indexed and searched. Pretty cool!

I'm only sorry I haven't gotten around to finishing this task earlier - silly me. So there you have it, don't be lazy, or absent minded, go ahead and claim your blog, it's part of the whole blogging thing after all. Technorati Profile
