Tip: Use Technorati tags with spaces on multi words
I just noticed, that there is no need to include double versions with and without spaces for technorati – like for example business blogging and businessblogging . It is sufficient (and better) to use the tag with multiple words with spaces because you will get both (with and without). Cool :)
Now if we only could get them to fetch the tags from the feed file and not from the front webpage? Because they belong logically to the bottom of a posting, but most of us write their posts longer and will then include the tags on the entry page – where it will not get fetched by T.
I am about to tweak my blog software the following way:
- use the tags in an internal field
- provide the first posting on the front page with the tags rifht beneath the title
- every other posting has the tags at the bottom of the entry (meaning only visible on single entry page)
- feeds will receive them at the bottom of an entry also
As I do ping after each new entry, that should work – if I my software to split multi worded tags correctly. :)
Tag(s): blog software, tags, Technorati sometimes makes my life easier
If you think about it tags should be also info for the reader (waht will be covvered in this text?) so actually their place is/would be under the headline or right in front of the text-body.
Right?
No, I see them as additional information which belong at the bottom. Problem is, they won’t show up in Technorati if not on the front page, which is why i put them up at the start sometimes.
