I'm finally able to see my dashboard! Geez! I have to say, my stats aren't too bad. It's definitely worth staying with them to see what happens. I like the little reports with the graphical meters (hot and cold). Pretty cool.

I've been using it for some time, but haven't notice any increase in traffic. Ah well, it's new so I'll stick with it for a while. No harm in keeping it.

i'm surprised you guys are having problems. I applied and got accepted within 8 hours (geesh! )

But the 'not able to view the dashboard' thingy is strange! never happened to me!

Just an update. Blogrush is giving me about 10% of my blog traffic right now. I am starting to see an increase in other traffic sources as my blog ages, but Blogrush is maintaining it's slice of the traffic, so I am keeping it.

Anyone else finding it worth it?

Absolutely. I haven't measured the percentage but it's definitely been worth it. I've been pleasantly surprised with the traffic. Plus, using the service reminds me to put more thought into my post title for maximum exposure.

Yea, Blogrush gets me traffic to a blog I rarely update so I'm keeping it and expanding.

My account is still on the fritz tho'. Can't login so I may have to create a new account as their cust. service is unresponsive.

I haven't seen too much traffic from BlogRush, so I'm deciding if I'm going to keep it or lose it when I update my blog's layout.

I'll have to think about it.

I recently registered my blog there and surprisingly, they rejected my blog. The reason was that my blog was not updated regularly.

They now accept only those blogs which are updated regularly. I'm now trying to be a regular blogger and will submit my blog again after a month or so.

One thing I learned is that if you use the words "BlogRush" in your title it will not be syndicated through the network. I found out 'cause I posted something with that in the title and it never appeared.

I emailed support (no answer... not good!) so then I wondered if it was my title. I Googled it and sure enough they don't syndicate posts with BlogRush in the title. Either they were getting too many "BlogRush Review" posts or they don't want to chance someone saying something negative about them and then it showing up throughout the syndication. Hmmmmmmm

I will setup my blogrush account when i start fully blogging and regular posting at the moment i wouldn't make the cut they would simply reject me, though i think its a nifty tool and a simple but good idea.

Not surprised. I think I may have to update my review on my blog. I too contacted them and never got an answer. It was on Christmas Eve so I thought I'd cut them some slack but I've read other comments about them not answering emails so I'm losing faith.
