This is not to say that having a higher ranking will hurt, but it will only last so long before you have to have real content to make it last. The rating system only counts unique links for the past 6 months. Those who participated in the Z-list saw a big drop 6 months after the list went around. Of course by then many of them had otehr links and ratings high enough to not suffer too mch damage.
So, if you want to try another project read on...
Technorati authority is measured by how many different blogs have linked to your blog in the last six months. Of course, if one particular blog links to you 20 times, it will only count as +1 for your authority- which is good because the goal here is not to link farm your blog everywhere and penalize yourself in the search engines.
This works similarly to a blogroll, only easier. The list below starts with SiteFever.com linking to BlueJar.com. Add your site to the list and who you want to link to, then pass the list on. If you want to be extra nice, you can even link to more than one blog. Each blog that posts this list after your site has been added will increase your Technorati rating by +1 and help your backlinks in the search engines. You can track where this list travels throughout the blog world from your Technorati reactions.
The goal here is to reach an incredible record of +300 Technorati authority for the blogs who participate! Can it be done? (It only helps if you link to blogs that you have not linked to in the past 6 months and vice versa)
******BEGIN LIST******
SiteFever.com links to BlueJar.com
Craze4tech.com links to Work-Surf.info
TheDOGRBlog links to LorisWorld
TheDOGRBlog links to BusinessPhones
TheDOGRBlog links to WhatIt'sReallyAllAbout
ModernMagellans links to Brett Anderson Art
******END LIST******
It also really only works for everyone if everyone updates their list when they receive links. You can see these in Technorati.
A lot of blogs have started using link tags and similar stuff to improve their Technorati Rank. I wonder if it will be useful for Search Engine Rankings, because your link might end up on lots of unrelated blogs, with many links on a page.
