Technorati Favourites Exchange Gets Better
A few days ago I wrote about the Technorati Favourites Exchange over at DoshDosh.
I’d decided to participate and am pleased to report the number of people who have favorited this blog has risen from 1 [ me :-) ] to 90 274. Add to that a nice bump in traffic and a number of very welcome backlinks. The results have been much better than expected.
The aim is to get it to about 150 300. I’m picking that’s what it’s going to take to get into the 40 top favorited blogs at Technorati. So we are almost there.
After following numerous threads and lists of people to favorite, I found a couple of blogs who have taken the original concept and added a twist of their own:
This new list makes life a lot easier because it is automatic. Meaning if someone wants to be added to the list, they will need to add everyone already on the list first.
When a user clicks your name in the comment, the link already points directly to the Technorati Faves add form. All they have to do is click the “Finish” button and they are done.
People are now able to quickly roll thru the list within minutes. Compared to all the other lists that are scattered throughout the Internet. I have spent hours on end doing these requests because I have had to visit tons of sites. I am spending way too much time loading pages, and leaving comments.
Where with the list I have created… ONE COMMENT and you are done… people who want to be included on the list will automatically add everyone on the list before requesting to have their name included.
If you are on this list you can literally receive hundreds of people adding your site to their Technorati Faves.

I truly want to concentrate on is building web traffic for this site.
A great way to do both is to start a Technorati Faves Exchange with my readers as Maki has done with Dosh Dosh’s Ultimate Technorati Favorites Exchange: An Interactive Experience
An added feature that I would like to add to Maki’s exchange is to create a mini-link train.
These are both excellent initiatives to get even more leverage from the link exchange experiment.

Thanks for the mention! I have even made it better by adding each user’s most recent posts included in the list. So when people go in to do their round of “Adds” they can glance at their most recent posts and capture some added interest in their writing.

I keep seeing all these Technorati exchanges and link trains, but never thought anything of it. You went from 1 to 90? Wow!
Thanks, for the advice regarding this, namely the list, I read about it the other day, and wanted to get involved, but time is a sparce commodity when you’re a full time blogger, full-time marketer to said blog, carry a 9-5 job, AND have a loving wife, with a short attention span..lol.
Hi Alex, have added you also – thanks
