I made it to the big time!

[Nathan]

I looked it up and found that apparently my blog has received a LOT of impressions through Blogburst, and on some very decent sites too!

Here is my blog's lifetime statistics, with the site name and the number of impressions.

Reuters 208,302
usatoday.com 6,550
Chicago Sun Times 5,087
Computer Shopper 2,069
Livestrong 194
BBQ Report 11
Hoovers 6
Austin American Statesman 3
Wall Street Journal 3
Sacramento Magazine 1

I definitely recommend this service to everyone, especially if you can include one dofollow link to your own site in every post as I do.

Too bad. I guess that they only want content from very select genres.

What is the link to blogburst?

(I am sitting on the commuter train at the moment
hooked to the net through my mobile dsl connection
otherwise i'd just google it).

I have been accepted there for one month now. It took a while before I could get my rss feeds right, they want whole post feeds.

How cool. I'm on blogburst for two of my blogs, but have not spent too much time paying attention to it. I'll have to log in and see what my stats are.

[Nathan]

Wow! Pretty good. It looks like the people who are accepted get some good exposure for their blogs. The difficult thing is getting in the front door, so to speak.

[QuirkyJessi]

That's really awesome, Nathan. Grats!

Nice work and I"m with "Sukosaki" I wish some of my content was worthy of a site like that. lol.

Still getting impressions?

[Nathan]

Yep! During the last two days alone I got 30000 impressions. The click through rate isn't very good, though, only 4 or 5 visits for all those headline impressions, but that is still pretty good for exposure on such big name sites.

Impressions and traffic from Blogburst seems to spike: large numbers of impressions about 1-2 days out of every week. I guess it has to do with that daily post, too. They tend to pick posts about popular, modern subjects.
