Ed Kohler has found a way to boost your Technorati profile by getting it to index links to your blog it currently does not register. The trick is to use a ping site like Pingomatic or Pingoat to notify Technorati that a particular site that links to you has been updated.
In describing his technique, Ed asks a good question. Is this ranking strategy gaming Techorati's search engine? He says it doesn't. In fact, Ed calls it “optimizing.” Unfortunately, I beg to differ. It is unethical to ping a search engine on behalf of a site you don't own or manage. The reason is simple. They may not want their blogs indexed in these search engines. We need to respect these wishes.
