technorati cannot find blog to claim

Just for reference, the only time I could get a reply out of technorati was replying back to the original request and asking them for an update. Sending in a second request never works since all you’re doing is starting over. I would try again but by using the original ticket number, not creating a new ticket.

I vaguely remember a similar situation a couple of years ago, what you need to do is to check over and over again that your embed code is not wrapped in something it shouldn′t be wrapped in; replace the embed claim code with a new; check that all settings for pinging and trackback is working and so on.

Technorati is probably never going to give you more than a standard answer, in line with what is said above. Their point would be that since the technology is working from their side, it is up to you to understand how to use it.
