Internet Business Tips

A newly launched widget Blogrush has already attracted the attention from professional bloggers!

What is Blogrush? It is a content syndication network that claims to be capable of sending free, targeted traffic to your blog.

How is it possible? It will be done through the placement of a simple blog widget on your blog and the blogs of others. The widget displays the headlines of your latest posts, which are pulled from your feed.  You get more traffic when you refer more people (who in turn refer others) to sign up and use Blogrush.

I uploaded this widget yesterday and  thus have not gathered any statistics. However, for a brand new blog, implementing such a cost-free widget is a worthwhile effort to attract more traffic.

BlogRush’s video introduction on the home page can give you  a good feel of how the network functions. In summary, here’s how Blogrush works:

1. Sign up for a free account and register your blog by submitting your blog feed and choosing a category. Place the widget on your blog and 5 links to other relevant blogs will show up within the widget .
2. Earn credit every time a page on your blog loads. This means that your post will be shown on the other blogs once with the widget. So, if you have a popular blog with 1000 pageviews, your latest post will be displayed 1000 times on the other relevant blogs.
3. Refer others to sign up and earn credit.  Referring others to sign up for free and install the widget can bring you credit too.  The number of pageviews your referees get can be added to the number of your pageviews. For example, you refer somebody and his blog gets 100 pageviews. Then you can get your blog title displayed for 1oo times on the other blogs, in addition to the number you already get for loading your blogs with the widget inside. The referral level goes down to 10 levels.

It is very simple. It sounds great to gain free traffic to the blog. It looks good. It actually shows more relevant information on the blog. I think it is good to give it a try.
