BlogRush informed me today that my blog has passed their strict quality guidelines and criteria in contrast with the 10,000+ blogs that were removed from the BlogRush network.

You are receiving this update because your blog has passed our strict quality Guidelines and criteria — we believe you have a high-quality blog and we are happy you’re a member of our network!

10,000+ Blogs Removed From BlogRush
————————————————————-

We’ve just completed a massive SWEEP of our entire network.  We’ve removed over *10,000* blogs (Yes, ten thousand) that did not meet our new Quality Guidelines.

We have done a huge “quality control audit” of our network and have reviewed all the blogs one-at-a-time.  We will continue to review each NEW blog that is ever submitted to our network.

You will notice the HUGE DIFFERENCE in the quality of blogs that now appear in your widget.  This major *sweep* of our network will also increase the click-rates across the entire network and you will start to receive more traffic.

My Blog Rush Update

As of writing this post, BlogRush only showed this things on my Dashboard:

I couldn’t tell how many users visited our blog through the BlogRush widget because the Dashboard and the Reporting options of the BlogRush are not yet available. But there’s no need to be discourage from using this widget because BlogRush promised us this:

But we’re only getting started.  We’ve got LOTS of amazing improvements in the works to help you get more daily traffic from our network.

Phase 2 Being Deployed
————————————————————-

We’re in the process of rolling out our massive “Phase 2″ upgrade to BlogRush.  In the next few days you’ll see an all-new Dashboard, advanced statistics reporting, and much, much more.

We’re introducing tons of new sub-categories to help with content relevance (which will increase click-rates and traffic).

We’re also introducing a “Thin Widget” option.  Many of our members cannot use the standard widget because it’s too wide for their blog. This new widget format will solve this issue.

Let’s just hope that by November 2007, our blog will start enjoying the traffic sent by the BlogRush.
