They are pretty hard on people. If you're feed was screwed they probably got pinged, found nothing, and tossed your site out. I've heard of people appealing by email and waiting but I've never tried it myself. In my experience once you hit the page that says "Huh?" you are banned though. Sucks.
When we talk about sites that just are maked and are there because you want to earn money, traditional adsense-sites, a blog isn´t good. You don´t get much money for that. If you have a serious blog, with many visitors, and a good rank in Google - you can earn some money from your blog. I got some click every day from my blog with adsense. No big money but better than many other sites.
Auto notify them when you update and it puts you in their constantly up to date SE as well as tag searches that get shared across dozens of sites. There is a lot of information out there, google "wordpress pings" and "ping technorati" for the how and why. Cheers.
Mm odd 30k, http://www.technorati.com/blogs/http://cq.dimensionethost.com/blog . I guess they like me again
http://www.cq.dimensionethost.com/blog/ was the first url you listed. They only list the exact format your urls are set as in the blog. Cheers.
http://www.technorati.com/blogs/http://cq.dimensionethost.com/blog http://www.technorati.com/blogs/http://www.cq.dimensionethost.com/blog/ Both work
How does the scientist earn 2 to 3k, if I may ask? And what is the best way to monetize a blog? I have made some adsense off of my blogs, but not a great deal.
BTW a really good free blog host is http://www.blogurple.com because they have a lot of free plugins and they do not put any ads on your wp blog.
High traffic blogs draw ads that work on a monthly or CPM basis, which generally outperforms adsense. The most I pay for a blog ad is $310 a month, but other blogs have turned down offers of more.
