First, you need to make sure that you have an account at Technorati. You’ll also want to make sure that you have an account at StumbleUpon.
Next, go here to start your claim. Enter your StumbleUpon home page, which will be something like bhartzer.stumbleupon.com.
Once you enter the blog URL, you’ll get a confirmation screen. It will look like this:
Next, click on Use Post Claim » link on the left, the part in green. That will get you to another screen that looks like this:
Now here’s the tricky part: Don’t close this screen.
Instead, open a new tab in your browser or a new window and go to your StumbleUpon profile (mine is bhartzer.stumbleupon.com. Edit a recent review or click on the “post new blog” link. Copy the code that Technorati gave you (the a href link code) and paste into a new blog post at StumbleUpon.
Next, go back to Technorati and click on “release the spiders”. Once the Technorati spiders have confirmed that you’ve added the code to your StumbleUpon blog, then you an re-edit the review to remove the Technorati claim code or delete the blog post.
That’s it! You’ve now claimed your StumbleUpon blog with Technorati.
