[fr] Technorati est le meilleur moteur de recherche spécialisé dans les blogs. Pour être listé dedans, il est important que votre outil de weblog envoie un ping à Technorati chaque fois que vous publiez un billet. Ainsi, vos tags seront pris en compte.
Technorati comporte également un répertoire de blogs sur lequel je compte m'appuyer pour la nouvelle version de SwissBlogs. Pour y être listé, il suffit de créer un compte chez Technorati et de déclarer votre blog. N'oubliez pas de lui ajouter des tags! Helvetia, en particulier, si c'est un blog suisse.
Il est aussi facile de faire ajouter son blog dans le répertoire sans faire de compte chez Technorati. Il suffit d'ajouter le code suivant (à adapter selon vos besoins) pour chaque tag que vous désirez attribuer à votre blog, dans un billet ou quelque part sur la page principale de votre blog: <a href="http://technorati.com/blogs/helvetia" rel="tag directory">Je suis un blog suisse!</a>
You know Technorati is just about the best blog search engine out there. If you want the right people to be able to find you, you should be in Technorati.
First, you want to ping Technorati. Normally, your blogging software does this for you. If it doesn’t, you need to (a) bug your blogging software provider to implement pinging Technorati and (b) in the meantime, ping manually each time you post. Not sure if you’re pinging or not? Do a search for your URL. If Technorati shows your blog title, you have pinged at least once.
Second, you want to be in the Blog Finder Directory. There are two ways to do this.
-
[Sign up for an account](http://technorati.com/signup/ "It's easy! Create a Technorati account.") and once that is done, [claim your blog](http://technorati.com/account/blogs "It's easy too! Tell Technorati which blogs are yours."). You can then [configure your blog](http://technorati.com/account/blogs/edit/1 "Direct link to configuring your first claimed blog.") to add tags and other juicy bits of information (optional). If you have a swiss blog, try adding the tag [helvetia](http://technorati.com/blogs/helvetia "See list of blogs tagged helvetia.") to your blog. Surprises in store soon. -
If you don't want to bother with signing up with Technorati or claiming your blog, it's easy: just add directory tags to your blog. Directory tags are [like tags](https://climbtothestars.org/archives/2006/03/01/comment-faire-des-tags/ "How to tag, in French."), only you need to use the <code>rel="tag directory"</code> attribute on the link instead of just <code>rel="tag"</code>. Example? Add the following code anywhere on your blog to be tagged as "helvetia": <code><a href="http://technorati.com/blogs/helvetia" rel="tag directory">I'm a swiss blog!</a></code>. Adapt to any tag you wish to use. You can add upto 20 per blog.
