My Blog Log Review

Saturday, October 11th, 2008

I am always seeking ways to draw traffic to not only this blog, but also the traffic exchange industry in general. Social networking is a great way to meet friends and receive traffic. I’ve tried several social networking sites and was starting to think that maybe social networking was just not my cup of tea.

And then I discovered My Blog Log in August. I was hooked immediately!
My top 5 reasons for liking My Blog Log:

  1. Create your own avatar! Choose your skin color, face, hair, background and (best of all) clothes. It was so much fun choosing just the right outfit. People seem to be supportive of this as there are new features added constantly, such as an avatar store.
  2. The interface is very clean and engaging. There are many social networking sites out there that just look dull in comparison to My Blog Log. The look and feel of a site is important to me.
  3. There’s a good mix of business sites and personal sites. This mix makes it more fun for me when I’m browsing through communities. I do lean towards the affiliate marketing communities but when I run into an interesting personal site, I always stop to read a few posts.
  4. Finding friends and contacts is so easy. There are many ways to find new contacts. You can find them from your own home page as your home page randomly shows members from the communities you’ve joined. You can find them from the communities tab, which shows the top communities as well as the new ones. You can find them from the Members tab, which shows top and new members in addition to those who recently joined communities. Of course, you can invite friends in. Lastly, if you display the My Blog Log box in your site, people can join My Blog Log and your community from the link there.
  5. My Blog Log reminds me of traffic exchanges. There’s no pressure to join communities and leaving is as easy as clicking a button. Members here don’t seem to be pushy at all, which I appreciate. You visit sites and they visit yours. It’s the exact concept of traffic exchanges!
