Technorati ?

Ok, I have had my blog, which is more a custom made thing, so nothing like Blogger or WordPress, it's just a simple query to the database and a few tags. Now for some reason Technorati hasn't collected any information off my blog for 165 days. Why is this?

Also does anyone know how to automatically ping? As I can't seem to navigate my way around their site. :/

 

Have you Pinged your blog ?
try pinging your blog from Technorati
Also use some Pinging services like www.pingomatic.com to ping you blog

 

I have pinged it, but it's not picking anything up.

My feed is located here: http://www.dalehay.com/rss.xml

It looks normal in Firefox, but the Online RSS Feed Validator thing for it keeps timing out. :/

 

Technorati throws the banhammer down often. It's likely you've been X'd.

 

But I would have had thought if I was "axed" then they'd surely remove my blog from their site. :/

 

They have 3 or 4 different bans and don't always remove you. Your feed is fried though when I click on it and they use autodiscovery so they are getting the bad one as well. Your autodiscovery links to a sitemap.xml.

Cheers

 

Ooops, my silly mistake, yeah I had the RSS heading thing pointing to 'sitemap.xml' and not 'rss.xml'. Oops. I feel so stupid now.
