Coming Soon: Top 100 Blogs in French, German, and Italian
Posted by Dorion Carroll on October 11, 2006
Technorati is world-renowned for its Top 100 Blogs list – this list features the Top 100 blogs out of the more than 56 million blogs we track worldwide. Over the next month, Technorati will begin publishing Top 100 Blogs lists for blogs published in French, German, and Italian. Top 100 Blogs for Japan is already published at www.technorati.jp.
Bloggers who want to be sure they’re included in our listings need to be sure they’ve claimed their blogs and have selected a primary language for their blog(s). Claiming your blog establishes that you are the author of the blog and allows you to use our other Technorati services to help increase the visibility of your blog.
By claiming the blogs that you author, your profile information will appear‚ if you wish‚ with your photo or image next to all search results that involve your blog. When people click on your image, they can learn more about you‚ see the information you want to provide to them about yourself‚ and discover other blogs you author. Naturally, your profile information is completely within your control and all the information that you provide is governed by the Technorati Privacy Policy.
In order to be included in a language-specific Top 100 list, follow these easy steps:
- Go to www.technorati.com/signup
- Follow the simple (English language – sorry!) instructions.
- Be sure to select the language in which you predominantly blog – this is very important in order to be included in the language-specific listings.
We highly recommend that you follow the directions included for pinging – setting up pinging ensures that we’re alerted each time you’ve published something new.
Please also include a photo of yourself or the image that you want representing you – bloggers who include images receive more clicks than those who don’t.
And that’s it! Beta versions of these lists developed in conjunction with a project we are doing with Edelman Public Relations in several countries are already getting attention, and when these lists are formally introduced on Technorati.com in a month or so we want to be sure to include you. So claim your blog today!
