Who wants to exchange technorati faves with me? An online blog marketing experiment

We all want more traffic, right?

That's how Dawud Miracle started a recent post which is really a new chain that's been started to help bloggers raise their technorati rankings.

It's kind of an experiment to see how many bloggers he can get to fave his blog, and to see how this will impact his ranking in the blogosphere.

He outlines two ways to do this, one fast and easy the other a little more complicated...

Here's how it works:

First, you fave my business sanity blog on technorati by clicking here .

Then let me know you've done it by entering a comment on this post below, making sure to leave me this link and add your blog url to the end of it first: http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&add=http://
www.yourdomain.com 

Once I get your comment, I will fave your blog on technorati.

There's also another way to do this, by joining in Dosh Dosh’s Ultimate Technorati Favorites Exchange. According to Dawud, a number of bloggers have seen huge increases.  I've edited his post below to show you how:

If you’d like to continue with Dosh Dosh’s link train for even greater benefits, read and follow the guidelines below. You’ll copy the following text into a blog post.

***Start Copying Here:***

Here are the rules:

1) Write a short introduction paragraph about what how you found the list and include a link to the blog that referred you to the list.

2) COPY the Rules and ENTIRE List below and post it to your blog. To avoid duplicate content and increase the amount of keywords your site can accessible for, go ahead and change the titles of the blog. Just don’t change the links of the blog.

3) Take “My New Faves” and move them into the “The Original Faves” list.

4) Add 3 Blogs that you’ve just added to your Technorati Favorites to the “My New Faves” section. Remember to also add the “Fave Me” link next to your new blogs (i.e. http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&add=
http://www.yourfavesdomain.com)

5) Add Everyone on this list to your Technorati Favorites List by clicking on “Fave the Site.” Those who want good kharma will fave you back. If not, you will for sure get the benefits of faves from the bloggers who continue this list after you.
