Once you’ve signed up for a Technorati account, you should claim your blog.

Claiming your blog allows you to use Technorati tags to drive traffic to your blog from Technorati, which is the biggest blog search engine and aggregation site on the Internet.

Before Technorati associates a given blog on the Internet with your Technorati account, it needs to verify that that blog is under your control. It does this by giving you a unique code, and asking you to use that code within a blog post.

Once you post the code, you tell Technorati to check your blog.

Claiming Your Blog

After you’ve signed up for an account at http://technorati.com/account/signup/ , go to your Technorati account profile at http://technorati.com/account/ and

Click on “Claim a blog” and enter your blog address (with the http://).

Technorati tells you that it’ll send you an e-mail with blog claim instructions:

In my case it was about 15 minutes before I received the e-mail.

The e-mail tells you to use a specific code and also check your account profile for more info:

When you go to your Technorati account profile for more information, click on “Check Claim“.

You’re shown your blog’s claim status:

Here’s what it says

Technorati will need to verify that you are an author of the blog by looking for a unique code. Please put the following short code MFD767KGRM88 within a new blog post and publish it

All this means is that you need need to have the claim code in the text of your blog entry. For me, I’ve already done that since the code is quoted above.

After you’ve published the blog entry with the claim code, go back to the claim status page and click the Verify Claim Token button.

Technorati then goes to your web site and verifies your claim token.

   I think I may have forgotten a step because I didn’t get up to all those. Thanks for the walk through.

   @jay,

   No problem.

   One of the reasons I like to create walk-throughs is that (for me) it’s handy to have a roadmap of what you need for a given task and know exactly what you have to do.

   It just easier knowing the whole process before hand versus find out about each step one at a time.
