Entrecard - Not Worth The Hassle I Wonder..
Not sure about this Entrecard anymore now they changed the pricing system. Now seems to me only those who already have high profile blogs can benefit from it.
Your price is now linked to how many people want to advertise on your blog, so if you are a blog with a smallish readership then people are less likely to want to advertise on you and therefore you will not get a high price, so even when you do get advertisers the payback will be small.
I know we are supposed to drop, drop, drop all day so we can afford to advertise on the higher priced/profile blogs but some of us do not have time, energy or inclination to spend so much time dropping..
Well that's how it seems to me - a bit of a waste of time really.
I'm not giving up on it yet, but I'm certainly not going to push as hard as it seems we have to in order to succeed, I have much better things in life to do!
Now, if I have the wrong end of the stick, or there are other tactics worth looking into then please let me know!

I've been thinking the very same thing - it's too much of a hassle, really.
Ohhhhh so that's why the prices all went sky high.
It drives me mad how many drops you have to do to get decent credits!
I enjoyed the addicted to internet quiz. mine was 64%. Im gonna steal it for my blog lol :o)

It does take up a lot of time to do all the card dropping. But, I have found several blogs I really like from card dropping.
You know I agree with you. I just joined a few days ago, and it seems like you have a spend all day dropping just to build up enough credits to buy one add.
Besides not having all day to do this, it takes me a long time to shuffle through each blog, since I end up finding good blogs, that I want to read and comment on.
Also not sure if this happens to you, but I notice when I do finally get a chance to drop a decent amount of cards, my account doesn't register them. Totally frustrating.
At first it seemed like such a cool idea, but I'm not sure now...
well, new bloggers get new visitors on this way (at least a few).
It sounds like a real hassle.
