I just thought that I’d do a post on Blog Explosion, who I’m not very happy at right now. On July 19th I registered my blog on Blog Explosion, I have been a member of Blog Explosion for over a year now, finding it a great way to drive a bit of traffic to my blogs, and gain readership. However I think Blog Explosion has gone really down hill. Firstly they haven’t verified my blog, its been on there for two weeks now! I emailed them three days ago about it and still no response, normally I wouldn’t be too worried about this, but at the moment its the point that I have money to buy credits with for the blog, so I want it verified as soon as possible. The website is going downhill, some of the games on it including “Blog Tycoon” have been broken for at least two weeks, and they just do not seem to care, as well as that when I tried to send my email the first time through their contact form [because thats the only way] it refused my email at least four times, leaving it I went back to it the next day, same message, same email. It accepted it! Blog Explosion just do not seem to be putting effort into;
1. Satisfying new customers and
2. Developing their website.
Since I originally joined, the layout hasn’t changed, nothing has been added, nothing has changed! In fact, when I originally joined, it was better! At least they verified my blog within a day or two. If companies like Blog Explosion expect people to either use their website to generate traffic to their blogs or pay money to generate traffic to their blogs they need to be Re-Developing constantly! They need to make customer service more of a priority and more than anything they just need to shape up! I for one will NOT be using their services now because of this, not because the website is down. But because there is no email back, and I haven’t been verified! Disgraceful!
Thanks for giving an honest review of the service. So many reviews these days are really paid plugs so it’s nice to see someone giving an objective (and deservedly unflattering) review of a service. I appreciate it because, as a fellow blogger, this is a service I might have tried out had I not read this.
Skellie, not a problem at all!
But yes, I’m sick of all these plugs too that make bad services look good!
I’m not getting offered any paid plugs by Blog Explosion anytime soon anyway! Didn’t realize that they actually read the blogs during verification, so once they get around to stopping ignoring me and check my blog out to verify it, I’m going to have some really happy administrators!
