BlogCatalog Sucks and I'll Tell You Why Right Now

BlogCatalog sucks and I'll tell you why. The other day I finally decided I would try out BlogCatalog "a social network for bloggers". I checked out their site pretty thoroughly before I decided that I might like to be a part of their community. I figured I could meet a lot of bloggers there and learn from them as well as teach people what I have learned about blogging.

I submitted my website at BlogCatalog (which sucks), Great Ways to Make Money Online dot com, posted one of their widgets on my site, filled out my blogger profile (it took me numerous tries because I kept getting some stupid internal error message from them), and waited patiently for one of their moderators to accept this blog. They say that your blog will be reviewed within 2 days. Mine was reviewed, and there was one small problem, BlogCatalog (they suck) denied my submission. WTF?

They said my blog is spam. Click the pic below to enlarge.



That is total BS if I do say so myself. Apparently they didn't even take the time to look through this blog at all. If they would have they certainly would have noticed that:

- I do not have Google Adsense all over the place

- I hardly have any ads at all on this blog

- I have over 150 original content articles written in the last 8-9 months

- Most of my original articles are geared at helping people learn about blogging

- Etc, etc, etc, Really I feel I could go on all day about why this blog isn't spam

- If this blog is spam then so are the 48,357 other blogs in their network that came up when I searched BlogCatalog (cough sucks) for the term "make money online". Please click the picture below to enlarge.



(Sorry E.J. Cooksey, your blog just happened to be in the screenshot I took)

- Maybe the 10 Related Topics in the picture are all spam also

- And all these conversations about "make money online" must also be spam, Please click the picture below to enlarge (should I keep telling all you people that? I am sorry).



Right? Or wrong? Maybe they truly think that every blog in the MMO category is spam. Or maybe they are tired of individual bloggers making more money online than they ever could with a whole social networking community behind them. I don't know.

But I do know 2 things at this point. One being that BlogCatalog sucks. And two, this article will be at the top of the Google Serps within 1 day (probably less) for the keyword "BlogCatalog sucks". Check it out if you don't believe me. Ha!

Well, that's all I feel like writing on this subject. F-U Blogcatalog, you suck!

Please leave some comments on this article. Tell me what you really think please. Does BlogCatalog suck or what? Do I suck and have a spam blog? Have I showed my true colors with this post? Don't be shy, lay it all on me.

One more time for good measure - BlogCatalog Sucks!
