Who Wants My Entrecard Credits?
Emma | Mar 15, 2008 | Comments 13
I think Entrecard is a really neat system. It gets exposure for your site, does wonders for Alexa ranking, and is an opportunity to network with other blogger’s. It’s also a great way to discover new blogs, and at first it can be addicting, just like the first time you discover stumble upon.
The drawback is that it requires a time commitment. I’m not going to say the traffic isn’t good. Because I think all traffic is good. If I were running adsense on this site I would use some type of filtering software so that only organic traffic would see the ads. That way my CTR wouldn’t be lowered.
In this case I’m just trying to streamline my time commitments, and Entrecard is an unnecessary distraction. As of this writing I have 542 credits. And I will give them away to a commenter below. If you are interested let me know. When I check back I’ll give the credits to whoever has commented.
If more than one person wants them. I’ll use random.org to make the decision. Now that I’m leaving Entrecard I’m already missing them. Maybe I’ll do one last click through to see if I can get some more credits for my winning commenter.
I will choose the winner when I get a chance. Which may be later today or in a couple of days. Thanks everybody.
UPDATE:
I’m giving the credits to Cecile from Blog Zenith. Thanks for the fast response and I hope you enjoy. Please send me your entrecard email so I can have the credits transferred to you. Thanks again, Emma

Thanks Tim, I appreciate that. Entrecard was good to me. But I feel guilty if I don’t keep up with it and give my advertisers the best value possible.
Hi, could you please tell me what is the name of the plugin that invite your visitors to join your RSS feed? Thanks

Sorry LJP I gave them all to Cecile. But if you check the entrecard community there are usually a lot of contests giving away credits. Best of luck, Emma
Emma,
I completely understand your decision to ditch Entrecard. I’ve gone through several rounds of taking the widget off of my blogs, primarily due to the poor value I was providing my advertisers. Then I’ll come up with some new angle that I want to try and put the widgets back.
The good news is that I can continue to read your blog via the feed and I’m not just stopping by to drop a card. Keep up the great work!

Thanks Kent, I’m glad you understand where I’m coming from. I think Entrecard is great and I got a lot out of it. I just don’t have the time to invest in it right now. But because of Entrecard I was introduced to many new blogs, including yours. Thanks, for sticking around.
