Blog Rush Has Closed The Door

A while back I removed the Blog Rush widget from 2 of my blogs because I didn’t feel like I was getting much use from it, but left it on one blog and yesterday I noticed it wasn’t showing up. I simply thought they were doing an update, but it’s still like that today so I went to the website and saw a statement from John Reese which says: After careful consideration, we have decided to shutdown the BlogRush service. If you have the widget code on your blog you will need to remove it.

That was only part of the statement to read the whole thing go to blogrush.com, this was started in 2007 and they didn’t monetize the service it was free, but for whatever reasons they are now shutting down and don’t plan to sell the business they started they plan to let it die. I received no warning nor have I read anything about this decision until I saw the site today. This just goes to show how fast even a well known marketer can fail at something on line. He does go on to say that he hopes this failure doesn’t deter others.
