John’s downline is quite extensive too, and even he mentions the clickthrough traffic he’s getting from the system isn’t anything to write home about – yet!

ANDY BEAL : BlogRush Finally Adds Reports But Traffic is Very Poor
http://www.marketingpilgrim.com/2007/09/blogrush-finally-adds-reports-but-traffic-is-very-poor.html
Not a happy camper! “I’m giving BlogRush more than its giving back.”
One of the comments on this post was: “Wow. It’s amazing how quickly something goes from first day media darling with a potentially snazzy pyramid scheme to something that needs kicked to the curb”
Such is human nature!

MONEY.POWER.WISDOM :
This quote is from my earlier review of BlogRush:
“And if they are overwhelmingly excited by what they find, blog readers will keep clicking on BlogRush links to find useful, entertaining, meaningful, relevant, exciting content – and maybe even make it their first-choice blog surfing tool! …
“And that’s POTENTIAL GOLD – for Blog Rush, as a concept.
“If that early visitor experience using BlogRush can be made a delightful one that makes them go ‘WOW’, BlogRush could become the magic widget of the blogosphere.”
My BlogRush data:
TODAY: Impressions - 136 Clicks – 0
LAST 7 DAYS: Impressions - 810 Clicks – 3
LAST30 DAYS: Impressions – 810 Clicks – 3
No, don’t go hunting for the BlogRush widget on THIS blog! It’s on my ‘Remarkably Purple Spots‘ blog at http://www.EzineMarketingCenter.com/blog/

Thanks for including a post of mine, sir! While the whole thing probably benefits the big blogs the most, I’m enjoying the effect it has been having on the blogosphere
I’ve installed the Blog Rush widget two days ago and have received no clicks so far with several hundred impressions and many more waiting in queue.
I’m a fan of John Reese, but the Blog Rush buzz will die really quick if this thing doesn’t start generating any traffic results.
