This test has been going around and I wanted to let you all in on it. The vast majority of FTR visitors have blogs and are looking for ways to get more links and traffic.
One great way is to hit the top 100 favorited blogs list in Technorati.
It’s not as hard as you might think. Last checked, you only need about 161 people at Technorati to favorite you to get on this list.
Will getting on the list help you that much?
Being more visible in the world’s largest blog search engine is never a bad thing.
But more importantly, doing this exercise will get a lot more attention for your site in itself. You’ll be taking part in an organized effort to draw more attention to your site.
Here’s how you do it:
1. Favorite The Friday Traffic Report by visiting my Technorati page and adding me to your favorites.
2. Come back here and post your blog URL and your Technorati username in the comments area below.
3. I will favorite you in return at Technorati.
4. Watch the list below grow and start adding participants to your favorites. Everyone will be doing the same for you.
If you want a link from the Friday Traffic Report, just do a post on your blog about Technorati (fit to what your readers are interested in) and do a trackback to this post.
I will post your trackbacks as well, giving you another high value link.
Let’s see how this does for everyone. It certainly will not hurt!
