Technorati was having some serious problems indexing and pinging a few blogs here and there. Unfortunately my blog was one of those few blogs. I pinged Technorati with every new post, manually pinged them, got a ton of blog links hoping they would send their spider my way but no luck. That is, until now!

I was sitting at home bored as hell and wondered why Technorati was having problems indexing my blog. I ended up calling them up and a really nice woman named Charlene answered. She said they don’t offer phone support, so I forwarded my issue to them (the autoresponder I got when I created a ticket with them) and within a day or two I got a reply!

Hello Cecil,

Please accept my sincerest apologies for the delay in getting back to you.  We’ve been experiencing a backlog in support and are working hard to address everyone.  I’ve taken a look at the issue regarding picking up your pings for “www.modernseo.com“.  After making a small adjustment, I’ve sent our spiders to revisit your page and your blog has been indexed with your most recent posts.

Everything now appears to be working as it should, but please let us know if you experience any problems in the future. Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any other questions.  We apologize for any inconvenience.  Thank you for using Technorati!

Best Regards, Janice Myint Customer Support Specialist Technorati

Well now Technorati is indexing my new Technorati Tags (I just started using them) and I’m ranked in the 60,000 bloggers! And life goes on..
