technorati-fav[2]Very soon i’ll be referenced by Technorati.

Oh it’s not really a big deal, its just part of the process, you know, to be known on the web.

Technorati is a popular Internet search engine mainly focused on blogs.

Technorati looks at tags that authors have placed on their websites. These tags help categorize search results, with recent results coming first. Technorati rates each blog’s « authority », the number of unique blogs linking to the blog over the previous six months.

So far i think just two blogs are linking to my blog, but this is not really a surprise.

To register your blog in Technorati, you first have to create a user account there. Once confirmed, you have to claim for your blog in your profile, which basically consists in saying « that url is my blog ». After some time, Technorati team will contact you back and ask you to publish a new blog post including a special token (you can include it as an hidden text input within a form: Technorati will go through your source code and find that token anyway). You can then go back to your profile and verify your claim, which will tell Technorati that your blog is ready for verification : Technorati then finds the token in your code and tells you that your claim is awaiting review.

And then… i still have to figure out what will happen :-)
