Frustrating BlogMad

I subscribed to BlogMad about a week ago, in the hopes of generating more traffic to this blog. The interface of the site is user-friendly and straight-forward. I could choose to surf blogs of other members to earn credits; play games; wager some of my credits for a chance to win the lottery pot. It's the kind of website that I like. but there is one BIG problem,:my blogs have not been activated ever since I have joined.

I wouldn't raise too much fuss if BlogMad says that the activation would take 2 weeks or so. I can accept that. But BlogMad indicates that the activation will only last 24 hours. I've waited more than that. I've emailed them about the problem, but there is still no response. And without my blog being activated all my hard-earned credits will go for naught.

Have I given up hope yet? Not yet, but I'm getting there. Just another email complaint and if there is no response, that's it.

But I have to give it to the website though. It has stayed faithful to its name: BlogMad is truly maddening.

How much is your blog worth?

One way of earning money through blogs is to sell them. BankAholic, a blog focusing on banks, finances, insurance and general economy, was recently sold for $15 million dollars. Heck, even a five-month old Malaysian blog can be sold for $10,000. Of course, your blog must actually have some value.

So if you were to sell your blog right now, how much would it be? Here is a link putting a monetary value on your blog by the number of other blogs link to yours.



Which means, I can give mine for free.
