John Reese came out with an excellent tool for getting your blog out there. It’s called BlogRush and I have been using it for some time. This nifty tool serves links related to your content in a widget that most people put in their sidebar.
The way it works is that every time the BlogRush widget is loaded (ie every time your page is viewed) you get one credit, so your blog will be shown once for each time someone goes to a page on your blog
BlogRush also has a couple of filters. You can filter keywords so that particular posts of yours aren’t displayed. For example, I have added “BXVI” and “Jackson 5″ to my filter list because they are things in my life that only my friends would actually be interested in. You can also filter posts coming in, so say you are competing with ipods, you may want to add ipods to that list, so you don’t display anything with the word “ipod” in it. You can take the filter one step further and add an entire blog to the filter list, so that even if they aren’t currently on BlogRush, when they eventually do, you won’t have their posts displayed on your blog.
I have been using BlogRush for several months now and have got great results. There has been decent traffic coming through. What I like most about it is that it is FREE 
and it’s “set and forget”. You just put the code they give you into your sidebar and they take care of the rest.
What are you waiting for…? Go and get it!
