Increase Traffic to Your Blog - Exponentially!

On September 15, a new blog syndication tool called Blog Rush was released by John Reese, the internet marketing king. Basically, the concept operates on the principles of referrals and viral marketing. By participating in the network and making referrals, your blog will receive exposure, and therefore traffic, that it would not have been able to receive without the BlogRush widget. Here is how it works:

1) Go to the Blog Rush website and sign up for a free account. You choose a category for your blog depending on the content topic. (Family, business, cooking, etc.)

2) You will receive a code for a widget that you install on your blog.

3) Once the code is installed, you are a part of the Blog Rush "network."

4) The BlogRush widget displays 5 blog posts at a time, no matter where it is displayed.

5) Here is where the magic happens. The more traffic your blog has, the more times your blog posts are displayed on the widget within the network. Then, as you refer more bloggers to the BlogRush network, your receive even more credits, causing your blog posts to be displayed on the widget - in an exponential manner. So, your blog posts are displayed on the widget based on your blog traffic, and all of your referrals' traffic - and this system continues for 10 generations. You can really accumulate a tremendous opportunity for your blog's exposure with consistent referrals.

6) Users can place filters on the widget to block posts with key words from appearing on the widget. For example, if your blog is about making and selling soy candles, you can block the key words "soy candles" so that your competitors don't show up on the widget.

This new syndication tool is becoming all the rage and it is barely 2 weeks old. Learn more about BlogRush and how it works and at Moms in Business. I have already installed it on 2 of my blogs and have seen an increase in traffic in just a few days.
