BlogRush, is it worth it?
Posted by: MSCopeland in Blogging, Web 2.0, Advertising/Marketing, MC's BlogIf you haven’t already noticed, there’s a new blog widget in town and it’s name is BlogRush. The name, for me, makes it sound like there’s going to be a stampede of traffic rushing to check out my blog. Just like in the GoldRush days when every one was rushing to California to make it rich by finding gold, am I going to make it rich from all the traffic? Well I will if I play my cards right, but my blog site isn’t about making money, it’s about giving information and knowledge on the things I’ve learned and know.
The BlogRush code creates a cool looking “widget” which you can see on the right side of the page here. New related blogs posts are supposed to be fed into the widget and displayed on my site. By looking at the widget on my site, I don’t really what offshore banking has to do with the 12 steps to lose your Internet Empire and 9 more steps to lose your Internet Empire but maybe there’s a keyword on my site that pulled up that post.
On the backend of BlogRush you get statistics. Basically your blog will be shown on a 1 to 1 basis up front. Someone visits your site and sees the widget, your blog is shown on someone else’s site. However there’s MORE! The More and More people you get to check out your widget and then become a BlogRusher, the more time your blog shows up in the population of BlogRush widgets. It’s sort of like points in my eyes. I get points when you come to my site. You sign up from my widget and I get points for that too.
My overall take on this is to GO FOR IT! The more traffic to your blog the better. People will know more about you and what you have to say/offer. There’s A LOT more to BlogRush than I have the time to mention here so click on the BlogRush button below and sign up now.
