Say Goodbye to BlogRush

After taking some considerations finally i decided to say goodbye to BlogRush. I’m not sure if this is a good decision but i found some other BlogRush users did the same thing.

Back to few months ago where many BlogRush users were looking forward to see the launching of the BlogRush Phase 2. I was so proud at that time to be part of blogs that passed the screening. I know some of my colleagues were failed as the BlogRush team claimed that 10,000+ blogs were removed from BlogRush during the screening.

And now it’s been more than 5 months since i passed the Phase 2 screening. During this periods my best performance was to have a click-through rate of 0.003%. One of the user that did the same thing is Simplehelp which left BlogRush after getting CTR of 0.026% only event the blog had made a very impressive syndications. Though my blogs were not syndicated very often but this CTR is not really good anyway. While at the same time i have to give some “good space” on my blog to display the BlogRush widget.

With all of these conditions i finally decided that this is the time to leave BlogRush. For all of you that are still actively use the BlogRush i just want to say goodluck.

Yeah..actually i don’t really understand how BlogRush works. They claim that BlogRush will direct high traffics to your blog. But what i read from some blogs that BlogRush system is similar to MLM. You will get best benefit if you are on the top of the pyramid. That’s the reason why i left it..

Where can I find CTR you mentioned before?

Currently I’m using BlogRush, because they list quality post in their widget. Actually, I reach your blog using BlogRush widget.
I don’t care if my blog not get enough traffic from BlogRush widget as long as their widget give me quality post from other blogger.

The CTR that i mentioned here is calculated based on the number of my blog syndicated and the number of clicks. You can check it through the report of your BlogRush. Anyway, i just checked my BlogRush, my blog is still syndicated event i don’t put the widget on my blog. You’re right, i’ll think to put it back to my blog..
