  My incoming links and ping backs are not working properly. Has this matter been resolved?
  Lots of my posts are linked by other bloggers. It is only luck if I see an incoming link or pingback.
  Please do not ask me to go check in technorati as my technorati is also not working properly!
  Hope to have admin people’s help here.
  thanks.

  incoming links are directly from google. i often see some missing for days but they turn up later. sometimes some links don’t even appear…

  I have no trouble at all accessing the 92 blog reactions at Technorati
  http://technorati.com/blogs/designflute.wordpress.com/?reactions
  And getting your blog’s links form google was a breeze too
  links site:designflute.wordpress.com

  Have you been following these instructions?
  http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/05/11/how-do-i-send-a-trackback/
  http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/05/11/how-do-i-send-a-ping/

  Have you checked your posts to see if under the blue Discussion+ button to the far right of the page beyond the editor has both comments and pings marked?

  If you are following those instructions and your posts are correctly set up and you still have difficulties then you will have to ask for staff help. Support hours are Monday – Friday 8AM – 4PM, Pacific time. The “support” link is on the top right hand corner of any admin side blog page.

  Tip: If you take note of the links I used above to retrieve your blog information from Technorati and from Google then you can put them in your browser bar every day and do the check yourself.

  Hi timethief,

  Thanks for the help.
  I am just checking – instructions- steps you have directed me to.
  As for technorati- fact is technorati is not showing all my blog reactions-other than these 92!
  Anyway I am on my way to recheck-the set up things.

  A Technorati tip is that you can go to Technorati.com, scroll to the bottom of the page, and click on Ping Us. You can put the URL for any blog that links to you in there and ping on their behalf!

  i think it is going to work with links to the post.
  But do you think it is going to work with direct links (blogroll) and that to linked to me say 60 days ago as well?
