Adding a “Add to Technorati Favorites” Button to WordPress

by Darren

To me, Technorati is just about the most important thing going for bloggers. So why not make it easy for Technorati users to quickly add you Blog to their Technorati Favorites? The easier you make it, the more likely they are to add your blog. The more people who do it, the larger the readership.

Simply copy and paste the code from their tool to your template.

Well this was certainly easy. Simply surf over to the Technorati Favorites Button Maker page and pick the design that you like best. Copy the code to your clipboard.

You can place the code anywhere you like. I put mine under the main sidebar div statement. Now it displays just above the Search button on the Sidebar. You can place it anywhere you like, but put it in a place where your visitors are likely to see it. The more traffic you get from Technorati, the better.
