This question have been raging on for quite some time. BlogRush the blog syndication network that have promised bloggers traffic to their blogs have failed in their promises or have they not?
Many bloggers are shouting out loud that BlogRush have failed miserably and are removing the BlogRush widget from their sidebars, while there are few who still believes in BlogRush and said that bloggers are to be blamed for low BlogRush traffic because of the unattractive post titles they gave to their blog posts.
Alex Sysoef is one of those who believe that it is blogger's to be blame instead of BlogRush. He did a little experiment by writing an article on How to Get $27,497 In One Hour Blogging. This fetched him a 11% click through rate from BlogRush. His rationale is to show bloggers that an attractive title is all that it takes to get a high CTR and the fault lies in bloggers not BlogRush.
Personally, BlogRush haven been a success for me. BlogRush have syndicated my last 12 post 6400 times but there were only 22 readers which makes a low CTR of 0.354%. This is pathetic!
BlogRush also came up with a new site called TrafficJam. TrafficJam also serve to help bloggers increase their site traffic. Popular posts, according to the BlogRush buzz meter, will be featured in TrafficJam.
No doubt being featured will get you more traffic. But this only applies to blog posts which are doing well on the BlogRush buzz meter? What about blog posts which are not doing well on the BlogRush buzz meter?
At the end of the day. More popular blog post on the BlohRush buzz meter will get even more traffic from TrafficJam, while others which are less popular will be denied of extra traffic.
So, how successful BlogRush and TrafficJam are in getting more traffic to all blogs? You decide.
