BlogRush Review: Traffic For Blogs?
John Reese the Million Dollar Day Man has just released “BlogRush”, a blog syndication network.
It promises to be “The Fastest And Easiest Way To Instantly Drive a Flood Of Targeted Readers To Your Blog…Absolutely Free!”
So what is BlogRush all about exactly?
Its basically a widget that you can add to your blog. And whenever your blog page loads with this widget, the widget will refresh and display 5 clickable blog post titles which link to other blogs. This links open a new browser window to the other blog so that your visitor doesn’t really leave your blog.
The blog posts shown will be related to the category you have chosen for your blog and customized according to proprietary technology used by BlogRush. At the moment, here are the categories that you can sign up under
- Automotive
- Business Career & Jobs
- Celebrity
- Computers & Internet
- Education
- Entertainment
- Environment
- Finance & Investing
- Food & Drink
- Health & Medicine
- History
- Hobbies
- Home & Garden
- Humor
- Law & Legal
- Lifestyle
- Marketing
- Music
- News & Media
- Parenting & Family
- Personal
- Diary
- Pets
- Philosophy
- Photography
- Politics
- Real Estate
- Religion & Spirituality
- Sports
- Technology
- Travel
- Writing & Literature
- Video Games
How is it beneficial to you?
That’s after all, the more important question. Each time your blog page loads, a new set of 5 posts are loaded in the BlogRush widget. And each time the BlogRush widget loads, you earn 1 syndication credit for your blog post to be displayed once on other blogs using the BlogRush Widget (related to your category).
Hence the more pages are viewed on your blog, the more syndication credits you chalk up which in turn leads to more exposure of your blog posts displayed on other related blogs.
So far it sounds like a pretty normal traffic exchange network. But here is where it gets really nasty and viral.
After you have the widget set up, say Visitor A clicks on the “Add Your Blog Posts-Free” or BlogRush Logo displayed. Visitor A would be taken to the signup page for BlogRush, and should he/she sign up. Visitor A would be placed as your “referral”. And if he/she were to use the BlogRush widget on their blog, you would get additional syndication credits based on the number of times the BlogRush widget loads on Visitor A’s blog.
And say Visitor B visits Visitor A’s blog and signs up for BlogRush too. You would be credited the syndication credits for the number of times the BlogRush widget loads on Visitor B’s blog too.
It doesn’t stop there! Not only will you get syndication credits and exposure from your own traffic, Visitor A’s blog traffic and Visitor B’s blog traffic. But also everyone that Visitor B refers, all the way down 10 generation of referrals. It’s basically like an MLM traffic network that puts your blog traffic on steroids. Here is the complete breakdown for the syndication credits that you will get across the different levels.
Your Own Traffic = 1:1
1st Generation Of Referrals = 1:1
2nd Generation Of Referrals = 1:1
3rd - 6th Generation Of Referrals = 1:4
7th - 10th Generation Of Referrals = 1:8
With estimates of 50 million blogs (source: technorati) online, it makes sense to Sign Up Now with BlogRush to make sure you are the pioneer batch. It’s pretty obvious, just like how the most money are made in MLM by the guys at the top of the pyramid chain. You can get the most out of this blog syndication network by getting in early so that there are more opportunities for people signing up under you or your referrals.
Signing up is free, and all you need to do is to register, fill in your Blog Name, Blog Address and RSS feed. So what are you waiting for? BlogRush certainly looks like a powerful viral traffic tool that you can definitely use for your blog, with unlimited potential returns and no risk. It’s a no-brainer to try it actually.
I have some gripes though, it’s probably because the network was just launched today. It’s still fresh from the oven and hence the syndicated blog posts showing up in the BlogRush widget have probably been planted in advance. And it might take a few days before its working full force. The confirmation email that they say they will send you also never arrives. But don’t mind that. Just bear with the little bugs here and there in the meantime while John and team clears them all up.

Hey Alvin,
Looks interesting. Still wondering if I should give this a try.
As it is, my sidebar is already cluttered. Putting another widget will make it worse.
Weighing the pros and cons now…

Hi Jag,
Yes BlogRush is definitely interesting. But with no risk and potential upside, it seems like a nobrainer to try it for a while. Especially since the referral traffic syndication credits work along the lines of an MLM model. Hence getting in early is better than getting in late when majority of people have signed up already.
Hmm…yes your sidebar does have alot of things at the moment. I guess that’s why I went for the 3 column wp theme. =P
But seriously, I think BlogRush is worth a try. =)
Regards,
Alvin Huang
This looks interesting. Will give it a go after I figure out what my rss feed is.
