a) If a blog is not registered in Technorati’s database, its link to your blog does not count.

b) Technorati does not explain in any way how it scores my blog giving it from 1 to 1000 points.

This score is somehow derived from the pingbacks/trackbacks or backlinks my blog is getting. These links should be no older than 30 days.

Of course, only those links from blogs registered in Technorati’s database count (i.e. owner registered his blog with Technorati in the past)..

c) How often Technorati visits these blogs to check for the links is anybody’s guess. Our crawlers indicate that Technorati’s crawlers are a bit erratic and unreliable (i.e. frequency between visits changes sometimes a few days sometimes 2 weeks or more).

CONCLUSION
Nobody can use a measure for any serious benchmarking, unless one understands how the benchmark figures are being calculated.

With Technorati, your guess is probably better than mine.

Oliver, of course you knew all that. However, I just wanted to state this to make sure all readers are on the same page as you and I.
Thanks for sharing.

And neither Backlinks nor Content/recent posts are shown in Technorati.

So it has become 200% useless.

Bye, Technorati.
