I’ve long since stopped using BlogRush on all my blogs. For the clueless BlogRush is a tool to drive traffic to your blog. Well from my experience, the traffic from BlogRush wasn’t significant but there was slight traffic from it

The reason I took out the BlogRush is because of the widget. I don’t like how it looks. There’s only two sizes available and the option to modify it for example blending into my theme is impossible

BlogRush widgets. Plenty of color options but lack in size options

Recently I logged in to my BlogRush dashboard to find out my status. Perhaps maybe they added an option to sell my remaining BlogRush credit. Also I want to find out if they have improved on the widget. To my dismay they didn’t

After logging in I found a notice that indicating my account is inactive, which means I won’t be earning any BlogRush credit any time soon nor will my blogs post be syndicated on BlogRush community widgets

The BlogRush notice

So what’s next for me with BlogRush? Well I’ll still not keep using BlogRush as the widget looks fugly. Also you can’t really use the credit for selling other than being used in the syndication credit. If only they allow this option, it would be great!

Syndication credit is used in BlogRush where each time your BlogRush widget is displayed, it lists 5 headlines from other blogs. You will earn 1 credit and 5 credit used when other members headlines are displayed

Via BlogRush FAQ

BlogRush is a “Cooperative Syndication Network.” It’s a network of blogs that run a small “widget” on their pages. Each time this widget is loaded it will contain 5 clickable headlines which are the blog post titles to other users’ posts.

Clicking on any of these links will open a new browser window and load the blog and full post. Users earn “syndication credits” based on each time their blog loads the widget as well as each time any of their referrals (users that signup after clicking the “add your blog posts” link on the widget) loads the widget.

They also earn additional credit based on all the activity through 10 generations of referrals. 1 Syndication Credit = having one of their recent blog post titles served inside the widget on another member’s blog.
