Mumdinger and BlogRush Update


So a week into using both, here’s a sampling of how things are going:

Mumdinger is showing itself to be tiny and slow. There is little new content and what is there is added and ranked at a snail’s pace. The stories I submitted didn’t receive many votes…but neither do their “top” stories so it seems to be of little consequence. Maybe this is a matter of “more time will tell”, which I’m willing to allow for. But they ought to come with some ways to drive some traffic their way; a site like that NEEDS the participation of many in order to succeed.

BlogRush….I have over 1700 impressions…to 2 click throughs. They say the click thru rate is artificially low due to some abuses of the system that should be cleared up shortly. Last week I had over a thousand “credits” but today I have a negative number….not sure I understand that, nor is a burning issue on my hot plate today.

The jury is still out on both traffic services.

Thanks for blogging about mumdinger :) It’s been a slow start but we do see between 50 and 150 visitors a day. We need more moms to register and vote on upcoming stories to keep content fresh on the main page.
