Technorati Authority in Free-fall

Two weeks after I moved this blog from Blogware to WordPress (I’ll write about the migration soon) my Technorati authority is in a free-fall. It dropped about a hundred, and I wouldn’t be surprised if in a week or so it bottomed at … zero(?).

My domain name remained the same, but the permalink structure is different, so I have 301 redirects set up (thanks, PressHarbor Support!), which is the method Technorati recommends. However, I’m starting to believe several bloggers who noted that Technorati does not follow 301 redirects are right… so first my authority will sink to close to nothing, than it may slowly recover. smile_angry

Update (8/7): I need to rely on hearsay from blogs, since Techno Ratty won’t bother responding on their user forum…
