Traffic Generation Tip

So Blogrush.com was released into the wild a few days ago and it blew up, literally. Although surprisingly I didn’t notice too much of a bog down on there servers after the initial launch which was impressive given the massive amount of sign ups and instant usage that bloggers initiated.

After running the Blogrush.com widget for a few days now I’ve seen some steady traffic, and for the most part category appropriate links within my own widget. I’ve also seen several posts from people all over stating both good and bad about Blogrush.com. So i figured I’d throw my two cents into the fray.

My thoughts: patience. It is too early to tell yet wether or not it will be boom or bust. My personal feeling on the Blogrush.com widget is that it will be around for awhile. Its simple, easy to install and so far seems to be working well in regards to cross linking similar types of websites.

If you have a blog or website, I definitely believe its a worthwhile test adventure at the bare minimum. On the other hand I think it could also be a very good traffic generation tool. However like all other search engine, and traffic generation tools, there will be quirks and specific ways to manipulate the system to get the most out of it. More to follow on that topic later.
