Having an excellent ranking in Technorati is very important if you are wanting to monitize your site using programs such as Text-Link-Ads or ReviewMe. If your site doesn’t have a good Technorati Ranking, you could find it difficult to get your site approved. Here are a few tips that will help you get a good Technorati Ranking in a very short period of time.
Technorati Ranking Explained
Technorati displays four count-related numbers. Here’s what they mean:
- Rank: the number of blogs, plus one, that have more than the same number of blogs linking to them.
- Links: the number of links pointing at this URL in the last 180 days.
- Blogs: the number of distinct blogs pointing at this URL in the last 180 days.
- Total Links: the total number of links found pointing at this blog, ever.
As you can see, the Technorati Ranking is totally based off the number of links that point back to your blog. Your rank puts you into a class of blogs that have the same number of links pointing back to their sites as you do. So if your rank is 10,000. That means that there are 10,000 other blogs that are being tracked that have the same amount of links that point back to their site as you do.
There isn’t much science to improving your Technorati Rank. The main goal is simple:
- Get tons blogs to link back to your blog.
- Add your link to many individual pages in a blog.
How Do I Improve My Technorati Rank?
Simple. Contact as many blog authors as you can. Set a goal and email 10 blog authors per day. Request to do a blogroll exchange. Most authors will respond back very quickly and accept. When the author accepts your blogroll exchange offer, start being active on the site. Comment on the posts on a regular basis. Every time you leave a comment, you also leave a link back to your site. Technorati keeps a record of this. Technorati keeps a tab on how many blogs link back to your blog, and also they keep track of how many links total are linked back to your blog. Technorati keeps track of these numbers within the last 180 days and they also keep track of the total number of links back to your blog for all time.
Improving your Technorati Rank is very easy to do. If you are trying to build up your site and eventually attempt to make money online through your blog, improving your Technorati Rank is the first thing you should do. It is one of the most important factors when monitizing your site, and consequently it is one of the easiest things to improve.

Thanks for the tips Garry; there are other ways too though I think. For example writing really good content attracts links, otherwise your blogroll would get really long! – but buidling a blogroll is definatly a good way to start.
Keep up the good work

My blogroll is getting a little long… I am not sure how long I will let it get before I build on a static blogroll page… but for now, I guess I have time to think about it.
