[EverythingEverywhere]

I should be very clear...

I have gotten readers from Entrecard. It is for that reason I don't take the widget off of my site. It will also give you a slight Alexa bump by having it on your site.

However, my main complaint is the reward for the cost of dropping cards.

Some of the top valued sites on EC are basically addicted to dropping. If they stopped dropping, all their traffic would disappear because they don't have content to justify the numbers they have.

I now only drop when I encounter a site via normal reading or stumbling which has a widget. I average about 10-20 per day.
