Benefits of being a BlogMad member!

BlogMad.net has many benefits for it's members.

BlogMad.net was built from the ground up to be extremely search engine friendly, which means that search engines are able to search through many of BlogMad's pages to find your blog address

Anyone who wants serious traffic knows that being listed on a search engine friendly site is a great way to get indexed and get more visitors

With this in mind we present the following benefits:

• Being an active member lists your user profile in a search engine friendly directory
• Your user profile contains links to your blogs, thus allowing you to capatalize on getting indexed by search engines
• Any blogs that you own get listed in another search engine friendly directory, also attracting indexing spiders from various search engines.
• Having an active blog gets your blog automatically listed in the VARB system.
  The VARB system also attracts search engines and has thus far assisted in getting more than 200 000 pages indexed by google and yahoo! alone.
  Many thousands of these links point to blogs belonging to BlogMad members.
• The Varb page has a PageRank of 6.
  A PageRank of 6 is an above average ranking and thus attracts visits from Google's Googlebot at a higher frequency.
  While fresh content coupled with an above average PageRank plays a significant part in the frequency of Googlebot visits, every VARB link promises fresh content, hence VARB keeps Googlebot very busy!
  Meaning that your content is getting spidered and indexed at a higher frequency as a result of VARB.
• The online users page lists all users that are online with a link directly to their profile pages.
  It boasts a PageRank of 5.
  While the ranking is average, it's a benefit in itself if you are online more often, because your presence online means that your profile link is displayed and when the Googlebot hits the online users page, you score!
• Traffic! The basis of the entire system is that you earn credits which are exchanged for visits to your blog by other members.
  While many people feel that it's "artificial" you will however start building up an audience of regular readers.
• Blog Resources. BlogMad is looking at introducing a new blog resource facility.
  This includes themes, plugins, hints & tips and free advice on how to get your blog to produce a profit.
