I submitted one of my blogs to blogrush for the sake of curiosity. Also, I want to experiment with the help of Google Analytics if there is some truth to the hype that blogrush would give your site a flood of traffic once your site is accepted.

To my dismay, here’s the literary rejection letter I got from blogrush (thank you, by the way). For your convenience I will just summarize the important points in the rather hurting letter.

1.  Your blog did not meet the
strict BlogRush quality criteria. (Really?)

2.  Not Enough Unique Content (1,000 handwritten pages indexed by Google. Not enough?)

3.  Here’s the moment of truth: Therefore, your blog has not been approved for use in our network. (It’s not my lose, blogrush).

4.  Please do not take this decision personally. (I won’t. Why should I? Will it make the world a better place if I take it personally?)

5.  We have decided to only approve the highest quality blogs for our network. (When that blog receives a PR 7 I won’t accept any invitation from your network, Blogrush.)

6.  You should remove the BlogRush code from your blog’s pages. (I postponed taking a bath so that I could remove it immediately. It destroys my page layout, anyway.)

Dear Blogrush,

I just want you to know that that blog that you rejected has 6,000 unique visitors every month. Listen, 90 percent of those visitors are courtesy of Google (I love you, Google). The other 10 percent is a gift from Digg.

If you could promise me 80 percent of my current traffic, I might reconsider submitting that blog to your network again. But forget about our broken engagement. I can never be happier than to be with Google. Just to let you know.

Sincerely,

Internet
