Internet marketer John Reese has come out with a cool blog widget called BlogRush that is designed to drive more traffic to your blog.

The widget is free and easy to install. Took me less than five minutes to register for it, add the code to my blog’s theme (you can see it to the right in the sidebar)…plus another 3 or so minutes to watch the video at the beginning before making the decision to install it.

Let me know if you install Blog Rush and how it affects the traffic to your site.

09/16/07 Update: Preliminary results are mixed. The tool works but, for my blog, it isn’t the right traffic because it is getting lumped in with criminal law and political blogs. The widget will need to be refined to reflect different subcategories for “legal” for it to impress me. That being said, it may work well with your blog depending on how well your topic matches the category to which you assign it. I’ll give it more time…just disappointed that Reese launched it with incomplete taxonomy.
