EntreCard is Your Online Business Card

mcstylin
"Drop Yours" is the motto for EntreCard, the new blogging business card endeavor launched by Graham Langdom. Graham's also responsible for the Million Dollar Wiki, which is similar to Wikipedia, except people pay $100 to own unique pages which only they can edit. Million Dollar Wiki has sold about 1,050 pages to date. Now Graham brings this new idea to the blogosphere, which allows you to exchange your business card with other bloggers, build credits, charge people to advertise on your site and more. You earn credits by dropping off your EntreCard on participating blogs, or receiving cards on your own. The more cards you receive per day, the higher the "credit cost" to advertise on your blog.

The EntreCard site offers a very well done tutorial/informational video right on the front page which tells you all about how to use the site. It has a very futuristic feel to its presentation which is even cooler. It reminded me a bit of the hit Schwarzenegger movie "Total Recall" to be honest with you. Once you sign up, you can upload your 125x125 .jpeg or .png logo for your blog/business card. You add in your blog URL, title, description and choose the category that is best for your blog to represent. Then you install some simple java code on your blog (currently there are 3 widget sizes to choose from) and presto, you're in business! Now you are ready to drop off your card on other blogs or receive cards from other blogs!

With EntreCard you receive a dashboard which includes a "Campaign" tab to use. The campaign section allows you to check out other participating blogs in various topics and see how many credits they charge to advertise. Credits are earned for dropping your card off on other participating blogs, receiving cards dropped on yours and selling ads to others. Your ad cost is based on the average number of EntreCards dropped on your blog daily. So it's a great idea to start dropping your card off on blogs and building up your credit total. You can then use those credits to advertise on a blog that receives good traffic which in turn brings some to yours.

It's a novel idea and you might want to jump on the bandwagon if you're a blogger. Every new idea's worth a bit of a try just to see how well it does and if it can help improve your reader base. It not only establishes you within the blogging world, but it will most likely bring you some new visits and potential subscribers for your blog. The ability to advertise on other blogs is a great thing too, as you can build up a good amount of credits and then advertise on a blog receiving good traffic.
