Some people think Blogexplosion and sites that copy it are low rent and haven’t bothered. I’d agree with this sentiment with the copycat sites, but BE had been above the trash. Like any other community based site, it’s a relatively smaller group of active users and then people like me who stop by and check out what’s happening once in awhile.

And speaking of new feature have you seen the new shoutbox? It's awesome! While I lost a few referrals too, I end up getting more credits because of the higher % for level 1.

Listen to Scoble and get the freaking checkbook out and buy some dominant websites/services/products and then don’t ruin them before the ink is dry. Digg and Memeorandum are there for the taking if the price is right. Another relatively small player that isn’t on many folks radars but would fit in nicely with their blog search and the webmaster space: think Adcenter (sorry I promised not to mention these folks in 2005 again, but they just fit this post too well). I’m talking about BlogExplosion (referral). One of the first things website owners and bloggers want to do is increase their site traffic and BlogExplosion is currently leading their niche market, which would give Microsoft an edge in an area where they are weak and Google is strong: delivering traffic to third party sites that are not paid advertisers.

Whenever I do that, I usually add at least one new blogmark. I think I have like 20 total blogmarks now. I also find it interesting to see who else is showing up a bunch on there. I've also clicked a few of the BE banners so those do work if they are creative. Lestat - you might try going through the BE directory (have you already?) for the categories you are interested in.

But for me it hasnt generated any revenue. While Ive surfed the BE...I've only found a few worth stopping at. Onlt 1 or 2 that I finally got the url for and visit regularly. Which, is the point! However, being a novice blogger myself, I can't help but notice my eyes skim right over affiliate ads, and adsense. Theyve become part of the browser to me, like furniture. I rarely hit one up. Which makes me wonder how many of 'our type' hit up ads for revenue. I'm definately not my own target audience. I do like the fact of another venue to get traffic.

However that would defeat the purpose of being on Battle of the Blogs since if your friends visit your website and vote for you, you don't get the new visitors that you wanted. So I don't know--but your theory of friends voting like that would explain some of my losses in battles. I agree with you that it often seems like there’s a voting cabal that one runs up against.
