    They seem to have rushed in too soon - not ready for the amount of traffic and consequent abuse and spamming of the service. That's why alexa for them has dropped.

    I think they still stand a chance though, just give them some time.

    Yep, this service is a dud. I tried using it for a bit then removed it due to the 0 amount of traffic I received from the three weeks I had it up.

    I've gotten over 180K credits, have a few dozen referrals and have only gotten 63 incoming visitors.

    I am not impressed.

    I was disappointed as well. I did get a handful of visitors, but certainly not enough to justify clogging up my blog with that silly widget and those spammy links.

    I'll wait about six months to see if they can improve the technology and customization and overall performance.

    Personally speaking this BlogRush thing is doing no good. It looks like the wheel is running but the hamsters not in, if you know what I mean! :D

    I have had it up for a while now at tsotd.com and its not worth it. They keep yacking about new major updates etc. I can say that i say a total of 4 visits from it so its just not worth a big oversized "widget" taking up valuable space. I will wait a while and see what happens though. If they can get there heads out of their @$$ then they may have something.

    seems like nobody likes it. I still haven't heard from anybody saying like it got me loads of traffic or something like that.

    Congratulations... you all fell for another fad just because a popular blogger said so.

    Learn to think for yourself and these things wont happen.

    Had you done so this would have screamed ponzi scheme to you from a mile away.

    There is an alternative - join us as a roomie in our blog network myroomie.net - you'll get a lot more traffic from us.

    Similar to blogrush, you insert a widget in your template, but ours is a blog thumbnail which rotates to display member blogs (roomies).

    All bloggers are invited!

    LOL! Yep, one popular scammer/blogger plugs it and everyone jumps on the bandwagon, including me! I gave them 10,000 impressions and got 0 visitors. So I took it off (duh).

    BTW, it's not a ponzi scheme. If you do the math they have sufficient impressions to cover the number of links they give with a little bit extra in fact. But that doesn't really matter since it doesn't drive any traffic which is its whole purpose.
