BlogRush Shocking Changes

On the other day, I have posted this BlogRush, a free blog add on widget tool, which can help you promote your blog(s) on related blogs across the Internet has launched. Have you start to use it yet?

I just received a letter from the found of BlogRush John Reese regards to the latest update of this free promotion tool, following are the email details,

TO: All BlogRush Members
FROM: John Reese, Founder of BlogRush

ARE YOU READY? Because *everything* is about to change. Forget everything else up until now…

PREPARE FOR *BIG* CHANGES! (TWO MAJOR CHANGES ARE NOW LIVE.)

BlogRush CAN’T EXIST if we’re not sending you a lot of ongoing, targeted traffic. We fully recognize this and that’s why this is our ONLY FOCUS.

The BlogRush team has been hard at work making major improvements for you and we won’t rest until BlogRush is running 100% smoothly and sending you tons of targeted traffic! This is OUR MISSION. Please know that our entire team is working around-the-clock to make improvements and fix any problems AS FAST AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE.

(We sincerely appreciate your patience.)

We’ve encountered some problems since our historic launch just over a week ago, and we fully recognize that we’ve made some real ‘goofs’ with the system for our Public Beta release…

For example, our data center provider (one of the largest in the world) had a short, temporary outage (they had to replace a network switch) two days after our launch. We had no control over this outage but want to SINCERELY APOLOGIZE to those that saw this message on their blogs (where the widget should have been):

“We are currently experiencing some technical issues and the site will be back online shortly. Please come back in a few minutes.”

We were completely *EMBARRASSED* when we realized this happened. That simple message was part of our application code and was meant to appear only on *OUR* WEB SITE PAGES if we ever experienced an outage. This was accidentally ‘marked’ to be a global error message for ANY outage — including if our widget ever had a problem loading. This was a major GOOF and we’re willing to admit it. Our code was planned so that in the case of a problem with our widget, NOTHING WOULD LOAD in its place. So a visitor to your blog doesn’t see an error or anything wrong should the widget ever have any technical issues.

This was quickly corrected and is now working properly. Should the widget ever have any problem loading in the future, your blog will be served a transparent space (which will show whatever background your blog design has) and your blog readers won’t really notice anything.

Again, our sincere apologies for our major goof. It was quite embarrassing.

BlogRush-Free Blog Promotion Tool

BlogRush, a free blog add on widget tool, which can help you promote your blog(s) on related blogs across the Internet has launched. It is created by John Reese, I decided to give it a try here at MBA and on my bizbizlink.com, a link to success blog.

Because the size of the widget (too big) to display on MBA site, so it looks not nice here…

The picture that you see on the left side is shows you how the widget display on your site.

What’s this free blog promotion tool all about?

BlogRush is a free blog syndication service that just launched few days ago. It is intended to help bloggers increase traffic to their blogs. It is a viral blog promotion tool that shows relevant blog posts that you put on your blog (usually the sidebar).

Basically, you can add your blogs to the network without spend a dime, in the other words, there is NO COST for you to join but you can get lots of FREE traffic

Here is how where those free traffic come from - after you sign up for the service, they will have specific widget code for you, the only thing you need to do is copy and paste it on your site (side bar).

What will you get then? - You will earn credits that based on the number of impressions of the widget, also the number of referrals you send, which means the number of new people sign up for BlogRush from your referral link. In return, your latest blog post title will distribute to those related blogs who are also using the Blogrush widget.

The tool is working sounds good, in order to see the real traffic statistics, I clicked on “Report” from my BlogRush account, here is what it comes up: “Under Construction - We’re hard at work creating some cool custom reporting features for you! Please check back soon.”

Well ……. can’t access

On the other hand, I think if BlogRush allows users to ‘Customize’ the widget size and color etc, to add some more flexible features into it will be really helpful.

Anyway, it is no harm to sign up and try out the service, so get your own BlogRush now! Sure, you can find more information on the site.
