Now that I have made a few posts on each of my blogs and have put RevenuePilot on them as my source of revenue, I should start to promote my blogs. Hits are the key to making money on blogs. Without many visitors, you can not hope to earn much revenue from your blog. I will start my promoting with a website called Technorati.

“Technorati is the recognized authority on what’s happening on the World Live Web,” so they say (Technorati: About Us). What that means is that they have a huge database of bloggers that have submitted their RSS feed. So everytime one of these bloggers publishes a new article on their blog, it is submitted to Technorati. Technorati then tracks the number of links to each blog. The more links to your blog, the more popular your blog becomes on Technorati.

Step 1 Setting up your blog on Technorati

Go to Technorati and set up an account. Then “Claim your blog.” Click “Claim your blog” and enter the url of your blog (For example, I put http://calculusphysics.blogspot.com for my Calculus and Physics blog). Then choose to embed the code in your blog.

Step 2 Putting Technorati code on your blog

Open up a new window or tab (Ctrl + T in Firefox) and access your blog’s layout. If you are using a blog at Blogger.com, embed an HTML/Javascript code on your site. In the box, enter the Javascript code Technorati gave you and click “Save.” Now, just go back to Technorati and allow their spiders to search your site.

That is it and your posts should now be added to Technorati. All new posts should also be automatically updated on Technorati. If you find that they are not, you can ping Technorati manually.
