Technorati Favorite Exchange: Day 4

By Vlad Zablotskyy April 24, 2007

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

As of publishing this post, my blog is 33 favorites away from entering the top 100 most favorited blogs. This was certainly an interesting online experiment. I am still not certain why did I decided to participate in it, particularly when I think about all the pink color all over the Technorati. Nevertheless I did enjoy it and besides having my blog added to the favorites by over 100 Technorati users (which I greatly appreciate), I have gained 9 additional incoming (I appreciate it even more) links which ranks my blog at 62,417:

For me the Technorati Favorites Exchange really picked up after April 20 and on average my blog was fvorited by 23 Technorati users a day. Which of course created a little of a problem, because more than just few of the Technorati members have claimed 4 or more blogs. Fortunately Andy’s Technorati OPML file trick helped me a lot. This trick of course came with a side effect. My own OPML file has over 1500 blogs in it. But it did saved me a lot of time. I am sure that in the future I will put this file to a good use. I do intend to clean it up a little. If you dare to use Andy’s trick, here is my own OPML file:

http://feeds.technorati.com/faves/vjsolutions?format=opml (Right Click to Save it On Your HD) – caution this file contains over 1500 blogs.

I don’t really care whether or not my blog ever enters the top 100. But during this experiment I have certainly discovered few new blogs to which I have subscribe via my RSS reader and/or e-mail. I suspect this experiment have gained me a subscriber or two as well.

Again if I have missed your blog by some chance, make sure to make me aware of that fact and leave your Technorati user name in the comments.

Hi Maria,
Evidently you were already in my favorites. I guess the OPML trick did that.
