A Very Successful Launch.

The first 2 two days have been great and quite the learning experience for me. Our press release went out to the media early yesterday morning and we sent out several emails announcing the launch, we also did some advertising on several traffic exchanges. We had several hundred members join and add Blogs to the exchange. After spending the majority of the day approving Blogs, I realized there was a problem with the viewing browser. It was only showing our Blog to surfers, yikes! That issue has been fixed and you are able to view all members Blogs while surfing. Thanks for being patient.

The hardest part for me is approving the Blogs for the exchange. It's not that it takes up time and gets tedious after a while, the hard part is the Blogs are interesting and I find myself reading and getting sidetracked from approving. :)

I have added alot of different ways to earn extra/bonus credits while you are surfing our exchange. There is a bonus page that pops up while surfing and you will be presented with a True or False question to claim your bonus. Another is the Word Hunt game on the surfing frame. Letters are earned randomly and when you complete the word or phrase you will get a nice bonus. Yet another way to get bonus credits is to watch the surfing frame, a link will appear that you have to click to claim your credits. I hope this gives surfers some variety and a chance to get some bonus credits to add to your Blog.

Please add suggestions or comments to the Blog if you have them. I'm always looking for new ideas and different ways to improve the membership.

Pat,

As I told you on the phone yesterday, I'm very impressed with your site. Nice work!

One suggestion - Please either disable the full-screen display mode or give us an option to do so. Believe it or not, some of us like to look at other pages (including other blog traffic exchanges) while surfing on your site, so having your pages dominate as they do gets irritating fast!
 
Looks like a very well done exchange.

Also, it's a pleasure seeing some blogs I haven't seen on BlogExplosion.

Congrats!
 
Love that I got a rank promotion today! Great idea. Thanks!
Peace..........
 
So far, I have to say this is the best traffic exchange I have tried. I love the fact that I am not sufocated by ads and I get to see actual real honest to goodness blogs. The only problem I have run into is part of your surf bars are hidden by by browser frames, any suggestions as to how to remedy that? Thanks for the great site! Betty
 
BlogSoldiers Rocks!
Ive gotten so much traffic since signing up with yall!
I love being able to BlogHop with no ads!! Now I know where I will be spending my nights!! LOL

Hi, I stumbled across blogsoldiers this morning and signed up immediately. I have had my site approved and have been surfing for credits for the last hour or two. One problem though... Your true/false questions.. Can you have a look at the bill gates one, as it states that he edits all blogs on the net. I clicked false and it said that's wrong! I got a denial for that (my id number is 258, if I am correct, please remove the denial, ta)! Otherwise, great excecution of an idea. Lets hope you get many new members (and hope I get a few referrals!)
