Advertising my Blog
-
I just started blogging and i wanted to know if anyone can explain to me different ways i can get my blog out there. I heard things like technorati and other names but i really dont understand the concept. Im a quick learner and good with computers, just never really got into the whole blogging world. If there is anyone who can help me out please let me know. my blog address is theopinion.wordpress.com

wordpress.com strips out javascript out of your page as it is considered a security risk. I am not sure if there is another way to claim a blog with technorati, but that way won’t work.

I found the FAQ for claiming a technorati blog:

~tayehsam: when you hit “publish” of a WP blog, technorati is automatically notified; will scan your latest post.
If you go to the technorati page: read the instructions THERE for how to ‘claim your blog’
I had already claimed a blogspot.com blog, so I just added my WP blog with no prob, no need to add any code/anything to my WP blog. It’s quite easy.It’s too much trouble to explain, so: One nice trick –use a ping page. Fill in, check all that apply: http://technorati.com/signup/
then go to: http://technorati.com/developers/ping/wordpress.html
After you sign up/Claim Your Blog: you’ll get to a ping page
fill in all that apply, then Bookmark the page (–so you can check it easily)
(–I put the ping page address here, but had to EDIT because it listed for my blog, wouldn’t clear my info, sorry.) -

WordPress already pings pingomatic every time you post: if you want a backup just in case of pingomatic failure, try Pingoat.com, which functions in much the same way. It’s a good idea to have more than one pinging system, in case one has a glitch.
