I’m using WP 2.03 and I get quite a bit of Technorati traffic. I use the Bunny Tags plugin to tag all of my posts easily.

I use WP2.0 and have gotten a few referrals from Technocrati, but I rel=”tag” all the relevant links in my posts pretty consistently. Maybe there’s an easier way to do it. I also have http://rpc.technorati.com/rpc/ping setup on automatic in addition to pingomatic under Options >> Writing >> Update Services. Honestly, I’m not sure which (if either) is the key to getting technorati referrals.

WordPress, by default, pings pingomatic and that’s it. I’m not sure if pingomatic touches technorati. There are some nice wp plugins for technorati that you should take a look at JLP.

Technorati should be reading your WP categories as tags. You may want to look into the ping issue.

Are you pinging technorati when you post? I don’t believe that that is set up automatically with wordpress just yet.
