It might seem like a lot of traffic from Bumpzee, but in many ways it isn’t.

Since January I have written close to 400 articles
Whilst my content is fairly relevant to the core affiliate marketing community hardly any are as active as Vlad other than the founders.

Pure Affiliate Marketing articles based around affiliates using CPA networks such as CJ and Linkshare certainly seem the most popular in the affiliate community.

I second Vlad’s opinion. Great write-up Andy I have realized the value of Bumpzee now because I was primarily dependent on blog directories like blogarama and blogcatalog so yeah this is helpful.

That is good to know. Reading this article made me realize that BumpZee is the best community on many levels and of course the traffic being one of them. BumpZee sent me over 5600 visitors (two blogs) since January.

Scott has this pretty high up on his todo list for this fall from my understanding, Vlad.

I wished there was some sort of filtering system on BumpZee that would allow the users to prevent post from being included in certain communities.

I have recently removed my blog from a few communities at BumpZee simply because I seldom write on the subject. I have also suggested in the past that it would be nice to have control on what community posts would appear on your widget. I guess for the bloggers that joined multiple communities there should be a choice of what is their “primary” community and thus only top posts from that community would appear on your widget.

Just throwing some ideas, not even sure such things are possible to accomplish.
