This is an official announcement that blog engage our social community will be closing registrations and going to an invitation community only.
The system is pretty basic but I do however need a few volunteers to help me out. Registration will now be completed by using an invitation registration system.
Current members will see the “Invite Friends’ link on the main page. This will allow you to send e-mail invitations to anyone you trust that requests one.
Please I ask our members to spread the word and share our news. Write a blog article about us announcing our closure of registrations and make sure the blogosphre knows you can invite people.
I’m willing to bet this could create some buzz and great search engine traffic. People will be Googling for blogengage invitation trust me.
This means in order to join us and submit your blog article you will have to get an invitation. We have two ways you can get invited into our community of bloggers.
- Join our Blog Forums and request an invitation by posting.
- Know a friend on the inside. All members have the opportunity to send you an invitation.
Be sure to add me as a friend, bbrian017

I say this is a good move even before read this post, also we can use this as prizes for contests
are you going to limit the invitation number? or it’s open?

Very interesting, besides creating the buzz by making the “invitation” only and making it harder to gain access, what other factors led to this decision?
