Technorati trouble
I’m having a problem with my Technorati account. It’s frustrating! My own fault, but frustrating.
I deleted a claim to this blog - and now I cannot reclaim it!
Error: Unclaimable Blog
Sorry, the URL you entered is not claimable. If you feel that’s not correct, please contact support.
I contacted Technorati support on Wednesday. Today is Monday and I still have not heard back - with the exception of an automated reply e-mail. I know this is a free service, but still…. it’s a bug (I think) in their system!
So, how did I get “here”?
Searches on Technorati for my blog seemed to not show the latest results. It kind of all stopped 14 days prior to me deleting my claim. I deleted the claim in the hope that a new claim might speed up the listing of my newest posts. I should have known better.
However. Such a mistake is probably not unique. Why can’t I claim it back? It looks like poor programming to me. Maybe someone can explain it to me!?

Hi Roar
I found your blog after Googling ‘technorati unclaimable’.
I’m experiencing the ‘unclaimable’ problem but I never
deleted my blog. I think it may be related to the fact
that Blogger.com thought I was a spam-blog.
From what I’ve gathered from my Googling, Technorati don’t
bother replying to support requests.
Frustrating!
