I was doing a little SEO investigating using the SEOMoz tools to see where some of my competitors are getting their juice links from and noticed that Technorati, the blog aggregate site, has a SEOMoz Domain Authority score of 100, the highest possible.
Instead of adding a new blog entry I figure I would just manually add the Claim Token that they provide to the numerology blog and be on my merry way. This all sounds great, but if there is any problems, the Technorati engine will not double check entries that it has already checked.
Test 1
Change the date of an existing entry that you added the Claim Token to. Nada.
Test 2
Change the link of the blog entry that has the Claim Token. This works.
It appears that Technorati caches or stores the links during the process and will not recheck an entry possibly to reduce bandwidth.
