I don't see the problem...they had a huge number of blogs to review in a short period of time, so they hired other people to do a first pass review.

Sure, some of the reviewers would make bad decisions, that's why there's a resubmission process if you think your blog got a bad review.

I am actually seeing some referrals from "BlogRush Widget" in my stats...

I think that BlogRush is getting it together and I am optimistic. I think I will keep it.

My traffic dropped when the new categories kicked in, but the overall click through rate of the posts went up. So I'd like the think the traffic I am getting is better targeted now.

I've gotten about 10000 syndications and yet only 10 or so clicks. That's a horrible CTR - .1%. Meh. I might take it down soon, but I have seen an increase in clicks so it all depends.

I will try to promote blogengage blog using this in hopes I will get some more readers to the actual blogengage site. Think this could help the bloggers that submit their blog to blogengage get more traffic?

I'm a Blogrush reject (despite not breaking any of their rules) so I'm not keen, but I'd love to hear from anyone who it works for...

I originally had decent results with BlogRush, but lately the click through rate has bottomed out. On another post here on the forum, someone talks about using traffic exchanges to build up syndication credits in Blog Rush, so I think more people are gaming the system and reducing the value of the traffic.

I still don't quite know what I think of BlogRush. I do get a little traffic from it, but is it worth the space in my sidebar?

I've had blogrush on 2 of my sites for around a month and I am not impressed. I think maybe 4 clicks over both sites. The good side of that is I don't think many visitors are clicking out of my site through blogrush! I'll probably take it off soon.
