With that in mind, if you really go nuts on Entrecard, it can help you when you launch a blog. As you get more traffic and become more successful, it doesn't really do as much for you, and clicking becomes a big waste of time.

I keep Entrecards widget on my site, but haven't really dropped cards in months. I have close to 600 RSS subscribers, yet the price to advertise on my site is usually 8-16 ec because I don't click.

I'm close to dropping it totally. The traffic it brings to my site is now a trickle, and I'm working on much better methods of traffic generation.
Agreed. I think I know a whole bunch of bloggers who dropped it because they saw these half ass blogs getting WAY to much attention. I'm pretty close to dropping it myself. I have yet to drop a Entrecard for the past few months.

I find all social media traffic to be fickle and my entercard traffic is now a trickle. I've said before when it was first introduced it was great for this forum so I do like it but now it's not worth having at the top of my forum. Maybe in the footer?

I like social networking but am not one so much for social media.
