Yesterday I wrote a post entitled Technorati Ping Problems on another blog. It described a problem I was having with a new blog promotion service I started using recently, Technorati. Information for one of the three blogs I have registered with them (this one) was majorly wacky.
I just received an email from Technorati support saying they made a “small adjustment” and everything should be working now. Sure enough, everything is looking good. My latest posts are up there, showing my index as updated 6 hours ago rather than 393 days. I emailed them just yesterday, so I’m impressed with their response time. Hopefully the problem is truely solved and I won’t be needing “small adjustments” on a regular basis.
Technorati appears to be a very useful and powerful service. They do have a problem related to pinging some blogs, but they are handling it. I think I’ll keep them ![]()

Did they elaborate on the “small adjustment?” Was the problem on your end, or theirs? I haven’t had any response from them in over a week now, and have no idea whether or not it’s something I did that prevents the blog from updating.

No, they didn’t elaborate. They were very vague about what they actually did to solve the problem. They did get back to me in less than a week though, so you may want to bug them again. Since they worked their “magic” the problem hasn’t returned.
