Have you subscribed to my RSS feed yet?. Thanks for visiting!

Everyone with a blog wants more traffic and readers. So when I first heard about the new blog plugin called BlogRush, I jumped at the chance to test it out.

If you look down to the right you will see the grey box, with the headline ‘FROM THE BLOGASPHERE’. That’s the BlogRush plugin at work.

Before you shout ‘Oh No, not more ads!’ I should point out that the plugin doesn’t contain ads. 

So, How does it work?

1. You register for a free account here.
2. You type in the name of your blog and RSS feed, and choose a category related to your blog content.
3. You get given a tiny bit of code that you need to copy and paste to your blog.
4. The BlogRush plugin instantly starts displaying links to other blog posts, in the category you chose.
5. Every time the BlogRush tab is displayed to a new visitor to your blog, this earns you 1 credit, to have your latest blog post linked to from another related blog.
6. If someone registers with BlogRush after clicking on the BlogRush link at the bottom, you earn another credit every time a new visitor goes to their blog.
7. No ads are displayed, just links to relevant blog posts in the same content category as your own blog.
8. You can even specify certain keywords that you don’t want blog links displayed for.

And it gets a whole lot better than this, and it’s all free. To find out more, watch the very professional introduction video on the BlogRush home page.

I like the idea a lot, and it only took me about 4 minutes to register, and add the code to my blog. That’s it, I don’t have to do anthing else!

Will this really bring you lots of free traffic?

The honest answer is I only added the thing about 10 minutes ago, so I can’t possibly guarantee anything. But this whole marketing game is about experimenting and testing to see what works, and what doesn’t.

After you’ve registered and installed the free plugin, you will able to start seeing statistics in your account area, in about 24 to 48 hours time.  

I will report back on my blog once I’ve had a chance to see how it’s working.
