Blogging Tips

It has been 12 days since I signed up for Entrecard. So far, I have found that it is a very useful site. I have placed six ads and I have 2 pending approval. Ads placed on my site total about eight with three left to run. I took a screenshot of the stats for my site:

Notice that the number of cards dropped on me is 138. This is a little misleading as it does not transfer into number of unique visitors. I have had some cards dropped more than one time.

If you are using Entrecard, here are some tips to consider:

Drop cards on those that drop cards on you.
Review blogs and this may turn into a review for you as well.
Every day check out the newest blogs. These have the cheapest advertising rates. Advertising rates increase as you drop cards and have cards dropped on you.
Place your Entrecard code in a visual place on your blog (before someone has to scroll down). You won’t get card drops if no one sees it.
Design a cool blog button, it looks more professional. Here’s mine:

When you advertise, remember each advertisement only appears for one day. Make sure you keep your queue full and your blog will get more traffic.

Entrecard is really great, I have been using it for about 2 weeks as well

I don’t understand your tips about keeping your cue filled to get more visitors though…care to explain?

I’m loving Entrecard, and I’m brand new to it! I’ve been amazed that just by dropping my card the enormous amount of traffic I’ve received. Not only that, but I’ve also had lots of comments on posts and links directing others to my posts/blog.

Some bloggers claim that people are simply dropping by to leave their card and aren’t stay around long enough to see what the blog is about. That is not true, at least not for me.
