It’s been a long time coming, but the Technoranki blog ranking system is nearly back up and running again.
Everything has been moved onto a new server, but there will be a few odd things happening over the next week or so as the DNS is updated and the ranking system catches up with itself.
It will take a while for technoranki to get up to speed (it needs at least a week’s worth of traffic data), so please bear with us while this happens.
All BritBlog members who were listed in the directory as of yesterday have now been entered into the technoranki system. New members will be added automatically in due course.
Once technoranki is running properly again then BritBlog can start getting blog ranks back out of it, and the Top of the Blogs chart can start being updated again.
So I think we’re looking at about two weeks for everything to be up and running properly.
Finally, because technoranki isn’t really anything to do with BritBlog (it’s a totally separate project) I’m also going to start a technoranki category over in my own blog. I’ll publish any information about technoranki over there from now on.

Hi Mark, its sounds very interesting. I couldnt find any information on this, but how does it work? Is it based on click through traffic or some code on the persons blog?
Sorry if this is answered somewhere else and I failed to spot it.
Cheers,
Craig

Sweet an update I can’t wait, well done!

Craig, it’s based on a range of data gathered from third-party web sites and (when you have the tracking image installed) on traffic.

Joss: Log into your BritBlog account, and click the link at the top of the page that says ‘enter the top blogs chart’ (or something like that). If you can’t find the link, log in to your account, then click here.

How long does it take for the rankings to update Mark?

Technoranki updates itself constantly (though in reality you’ll probably only notice a change once a day). BritBlog on the other hand doesn’t update itself at all yet! I still need to get BritBlog talking to technoranki, which is a bit more of a challenge now. I should put something on the top blogs page when I get a chance as this isn’t very clear I know…

Hi Mark, hope the holiday was good. Any advance on getting them talking?

Sorry – not had time yet. I think I need about three weeks off work to catch up with all my BritBlog to dos!
