Maki at Dosh Dosh is becoming one of my favorite sources of blogging tips, along with Daniel at Daily Blog Tips and Darren at ProBlogger.
Inspired by Maki’s posts (experiment and results) on using Technorati WTF (Where’s The Fire?) to drive traffic to your blog, I have written my first WTF on (what else?) Sanjaya Malakar. The WTF is based on one of my better Sanjaya posts in which I argue that Sanjaya deserves to win American Idol because he has created more buzz than all the other contestants except Antonella Barba.
If you liked my post, please vote for my Technorati WTF so that it can get to the top of the Sanjaya Malakar page on Technorati. Even ten votes will be enough for this, so every vote counts!
And, yes, go write a WTF yourself!

In response to Robert Scoble’s call to test Technorati Search vs Google Blog Search, I decided to search for Sanjaya and Shyamali Malakar (something I have been doing frequently anyway) -
- Sanjaya Malakar (without quotes) has 9988 results on Technorati (including 588 results from blogs with a lot of authority) versus 16437 results at Google Blog Search
- Shyamali Malakar (without quotes) has 517 results on Technorati (including 51 results from blogs with a lot of authority) versus 420 results at Google Blog Search
While the results from both Google Blog Search and Technorati don’t look like spam, I personally prefer to use Technorati because it allows me to filter results based on the authority of the blogs.
The verdict then? Based on number of search results - inconclusive. Based on usability - definitely Technorati.
By the way, it’s that time of the week again when I write a Sanjaya Malakar post. This week, I have two or three up my sleeve, and I’m not even counting this one.
