Why I am dropping Entrecard.

Saturday, May 31, 2008 - 06:11
Entrecard was a nice traffic source when my blog started out a few months ago. Heck I was even at top sometimes. But its time for me to say good bye to Entrecard. Maybe in the future I will have entrecard on my blog again if all the regular readers decided they ad enough of me and this blog. But for now, its gone. I have a few reasons for removing entrecard from my blog but before I get there I first want to tell you that entrecard is a great source of traffic. But its not for me. The reason I have removed Entrecard is because the more people come to my site just to click on the Entrecard the less money I make. Targetting search engines is already difficult, and adding the extra traffic from entrecard messed up my Adsense percentage. Now if I keep entrecard I would make less money. Another thing. Entrecard started out a certain way. I joined and dropped. But now they have changed it. People have been complaining and they listened. Great. But I dont like the way entrecard works now. Useless traffic does not exist. You have the opportunity to get annyone to read your articles but if they are not the ones you target with your blog it has not point in keeping the widget.
