Anybody Get Any Traffic From Technorati Searches Anymore?

Is anyone getting traffic by using Technorati tagging anymore?

I remember when I used to blog, I'd get traffic from them by tagging.

Now with my first blog in years I have the Technorati auto-tagging plugin installed and no traffic from Technorati searches.

I use to get a TON too. I had a blog about Paris Hilton and at the time, there tag page was ranked #4, so it would roll in all the time at least 200 uniques a day. But not anymore. They're dying a slow death, although, they do have a new ad serving platform I'd like to try out that might be worth advertising on.

it's been a while since I tested out the old rel="tag" surrounding some anchor text to get easy technorati traffic...but I do recall it used to work like a charm...sad to hear that's gone by the wayside :/

I'm thinking it might actually be because there's a technorati plugin now that tags a bunch of keywords automatically from a blog post... maybe since a lot of people are using it, your posts get pushed down the page too fast when people are searching.
