John Reese creator of Blog Rush has released an update about the program. The highlights are as follows. It’s great to see that action is being taken though it would have been better had they taken it before and not after.

Manual review process

It seems the amount of spam and other trash has forced the Blog Rush administration to go to a strictly manual review. That is great news as it will help to ensure relevance.

Additional security measures

Better security is being implemented by the team in an effort to curb the number of cheaters which have apparently flooded the network. This is great news as well.

I’ve been fairly critical of Blog Rush over the past few days, but if they will keep this kind of work up I’ll be the first one to say I was wrong. At this point I’m still critical of the traffic potential because I’m not seeing much potential (7,106 impressions and 5 clicks) in it. I hope I can also say I was wrong about that as well, but we will have to wait and see.
