BlogRush is a weblog syndication startup that has just spread across the blogging world like lightening. I couldn’t see any good reason why. Until I read the BlogRush blog. The blog demonstrates an expert knowledge of web marketing and develops relationships with other ‘respected’ bloggers.
A product is anounced early, but details are difficult to extract from the other wealth of content in the blog. BlogRush is officially anounced and only days later secures 40 million page views. Issues existed and are being addressed, but a market is secured. The issues allowed people to add multiple BlogRush widgets to their blogs and webpages and increase credits and other reasonably minor offences like that.
Why do I have one on my blog? Because I’m interested to see how viral it is, it looks like an uncustomisable Google ads widget to me.
Update: Turns out the BlogRush widget was absolutely non-viral and particularly tacky looking. Perhaps two people came my way from the BlogRush component. What it did show, was the Blogging community are willing to try anything. So if you plan to make something like this; and can make it work, look good and load with high performance… not only would almost all bloggers install it, but they’d be damn happy about it too!
