Technorati is the leading site when it comes to blogs and having your link on Technorati helps you to get more visitors to your blog. Technorati also has a blog search engine and it is used by a lot of people. The more people that subscribe and link to your blog the higher your Technorati ranking will be. To get a ranking you have to claim your blog. You need to get a free account and register with Technorati before you can start claiming your blog. Once logged in, go to Blogs | My Blogs.
At the right hand side of that screen you will see a link that says Claim a new blog, click on it to start the process. First, fill in your Blog's URL, and then click on Start Claim. Technorati will then check that it can find your URL, which should not be a problem. After the check you will get a link that you have to copy and paste into your site. If you follow the instructions on the screen you cannot go wrong.
