Why can't I ping Technorati ?

    I've pinged them directly on the site a few times but it still doesn't update my blog info on there. I have my pinger set to ping them when I make a new blog post. It pings "successfully" but still doesn't update. Anyone know the problem here?

    Your blog is fairly new. When did you claim your blog at Technorati?

    Per Technorati Support: FAQ:
    I went ahead and Faved your blog in the hopes that this may speed up your review process. It may work, may not.

    Well technorati only has my first 2 post ever made on my blog. So it's been around 49 days since I claimed it.

    Thanks for faving it. :)

    Yep. I am your number one FAN. ;)

    Technorati has always had a problem with manual/auto pings. See WebStractions: Are you PING-less in Technorati? from last year.

    I have had on-again, off-again problems with some other blogs not updating like they should. And they are well established blogs to boot!

    I know this may not solve the problem, but will get your blog the attention it needs. Going almost two months without an update is ridiculous.

    You need to post your problem at their Discussions forum:

    http://support.technorati.com/discussions/

    You will notice a lot of others there with the same problem. Check your post everyday, and bump it nicely to the top if needed. Eventually a tech will hand -promote the ping through for you. Thank them nicely, and hope it does not happen again.

    You've just discovered Technorati is, more often than not, a complete mess.
