Today is the last day of June. I had an unexpressed goal of trying to get my Technorati Authority rating up to 200. I did not quite make it but I got close 193.
The ranking is a reflection of the number of different blogs that have a link back to your blog in the past 180 days. It does not matter if you comment once, or 100 times on a single blog - that is one blog linking to your blog. You may have a "blog reaction" number that can be much higher than your Authority ranking because you post commetns on some blogs more frequently than others.
Some things you can do to build links -
Participate in lists:
Liz Strauss did one on blog metaphors
Chris Garrett is doing one on Personal Branding (He calls it a "Round-Up")
Carousels or Carnivals - Krishna De is putting one together.
Drew McLellan is building a bloggers toolbox. You could add to that or at least use it
Like Becky Carroll you could create a blog that makes people think - this is always a good thing.
Some other ideas....
You can be more devious or stealthy depending on your point of view.
Create an award, a game, or just a tag meme. I like what Andy Coates cooked up here:

Thsi method does work but you have to share it and be patient.
What ever you choose, don't over do it. Remember: Pigs get fed and hogs get slaughtered.
