Even though
I have been a part of the Internet revolution since the mid 90´s I still get
stunned by the power of its nature from time to time. So I will now share a Blogalanche
experience I just had that really shows the true impact of the blogosphere!
Recently we
opened up our service globally, ie it´s open for everyone no matter the country
or mobile operator, read more in my earlier blog post here
The effects
of that blog post amazes me, both from an awareness perspective not to mention
traffic wise. First we were reviewed by one of the leading blogs in Europe when
it comes to Internet and trends, Everything 2.0,
created by a true Internet pioneer: Mr Bob Stumpel
That led to
a listing at Killerstartups in the US, which scans the Internet in order
to list the hottest startups on a daily basis. Please visit the post and help us out by giving us your vote here!
Shortly
thereafter, we got reviewed by Makeuseof.com, which apparently is read by Japanese versions of similar
review sites. So shortly
thereafter we got picked up as Dot Com of the Day by 100shiki.com. 
I can now
ascertain the following: We have
just doubled our daily traffic on Traveas.com five days in a row. That is
a increase of 3200% in less than a week, including a weekend. I´m stunned!
This has
completely turned the country split on our visitors around, from a clear
dominating position for Sweden (naturally) to a the new leader Japan,
unendangered in its first place.
Now that´s
what I call a Blogalanche experience and the tune of the week at the
Traveas headquarters is of course nothing else than this old floorfiller :-)
Sayonara!
