I’ve heard lots of things about Entrecard about the interwebs and finally went over to have a gander myself. It seems like a really great program if one has the time (I do).
The premise is fairly simple: you are, more or less, swapping advertising space with fellow bloggers. You drop your card on blogs participating in the program to earn credits, which you then spend to advertise on a blog of your choice (obviously, it must also be participating in the program). You also earn credits when others advertise on your blog.
I’m finding quite a number of new (to me) blogs that I’m really interested in. And hell, I did just eliminate some of my Google Reader subscriptions, so now there’s room for some of the blogs I’m encountering that I think are pretty swell. I’ve already subscribed to a few! Even better, some participators of the program have I Follow policies! There are even several blogs that have impressive Page Ranks.
Some of the bloggers on Entrecard take Entrecard very seriously, dropping the maximum 300 cards per day, and/or posting monthly about their Top Droppers, etc. There are contests where the prizes are X number of Entrecard credits, “slots” to play, and a number of other ways to earn extra Entrecard credits. It’s been very fun exploring and dropping my card around. I’ve “purchased” some advertising space on a few blogs and some has been purchased from me.
Take a peek over in my sidebar for Today’s Featured Blog and if you can, click through to visit!
Entrecarders, don’t forget to leave a comment for some link love!

Welcome to Entrecard. It has done wonders for my traffic situation. I don’t take all the dropping to seriously, just in it mainly for a few visitors and a lots of fun. Life’s just too short.

Yes Entrecard has been great for me too - not only finding new blogs, but I’ve made some really good friends too. Some people get quite frenzied dropping cards, but I don’t have time for that. A.s last blog post…Photohunter: string

Welcome to Entrecard. I’ve found a lot of interesting blogs using it. But it can be hugely time consuming if you let it.
