I was going to give entrecard a try, after reading their resources they said I could place the widget anywhere on the site. They did not require it to be on the top of the page, but placing it there would drive more traffic. I signed up, placed the widget down on the right side.. now I keep getting denied and sent an email saying that I must place the widget at the top of the page to be accepted. That was enough to make me not want to sign up with it.

Hi,

I just recently withdrew from EntreCard. 10 days ago, my bounce rate was 91%, today it is 60%. I’ve also had a dramatic increase in page/visit and time on my site…

Great analysis. One of the biggest mistake on your blog is you are not putting the date ON your blog post ADN comment.You are not blogging evergreen post.

Some statement might not accurate as it used to be.

The biggest problem I found is while dropping on blogs I picked up viruses so I practice safe dropping and only drop in blogs I know are safe from viruses.

I think Entrecard is good for new blogs that just need any traffic and attention they can get but long-term I am really noticing a decline in the traffic they provide, as far as quality is concerned.

Interesting post.I have heard a lot about Entrecard but the traffic from it is not targeted, meaning not so many sales/leads.

I have use Entrecard and maybe the quality of visitor is not too good but I have receive some good comment from my visitors from(Entrecard) and what more good news is I have made some good friends too. So think positive.

I dropped Entrecard quite early on – it skews your traffic figures too much so you don’t if it’s droppers bouncing from your site quickly or possible readers that you just haven’t managed to keep.

It’s nice to see another opinion on Entrecard traffic, from a site that gets more traffic than mine. Looks like most people agree across the board, that Entrecard is just “hit and run” traffic.

Additionally, don’t use Entrecard if your blog is about

Music
Video games
Movies
Pretty much any entertainment niche actually

The “medium boys” (as I call them) in these niches don’t even know what Entrecard is. They follow different trends in link sharing and networking, especially the gamer crowd which is more picky and have shorter attention spans with ads.
