I do like it though - just be prepared for some 'undesirable' Entrecard requests to be shown on your blog.

Hope everyone is doing well - been gone for a minute-

Thanks for the feedback, Renee. Welcome back!

I used to be picky as well with regards to which ads I displayed on my site.

I eventually just started accepting ads that were graphically appropriate, which are most ads on Entrecard.

I have also been rejected many times in the past, but I don't take it personally. When I buy ads I usually buy them in bulk, which means over 100 at a time.

That reminds me, I'll have to buy an ad on your blog again.

rejecting too many advertising can make bad impression to entreacard community. lisa..i think u can use recommendation...how u will accept ad. this will also help others while they want to purchase ad from u.

u have to give more time to increase ur entrecard creadit. as ur blog is well establish and full of rich content..if u give more time..then u can overcome the rejection prob which is bothering u now.

Thanks KRH

I can see the potential in this..... especially when you find a few sites where your own EC converts pretty well so I'm hanging in there. Like I said I just haven't invested the time.

Oh and one more thing. This has been driving me nuts and it may be kinda silly but why in the world couldn't they center the "Drop" text on the widget I'm using???? Sometimes it's the little things that make me nutty. LOL

That's why I don't accept everyone. Glad to be back. Been enjoying my job layoff, updating my SBI site and Google blog, and I'm picking up my scooter tomorrow.

I also joined that Spider Marketing System but was not happy with it at all. I"m just sticking to my SBI and Google blog right now. I get so turned off by folks posting these 'form letter-type internet postings' with pictures of wands of money, treasure chests, gold coins, etc. saying how 'you can make money overnight' - so many pyramid-like schemes out there, it's really a turn-off!

Wow, I just got 130 clicks from a blog I put my card on yesterday and I'm trying to decide if I should be happy or skeptical. Does anyone know if EntreCard blocks clicks from the owner of the blog? For example if someone advertises on my blog I could keep clicking their EC to make the Webmaster think they're getting a lot of traffic? I often wonder if people try to cheat the system like that.

Anyone know if EC blocks multiple clicks from the same IP to keep people from cheating?

I'm not sure how EC tracks clicks. You could always ask the question using the feedback form on your dashboard.

If you do let us know, I'm curious myself.

Yeah I think what I'm gonna do is post a message on the forum. I got a pretty quick answer last time. I'll let you know.

Based on the answers I've gotten so far, doesn't sound like IP addresses are tracked so there is plenty of room for click fraud. Apparently EC is working on it.

Overall, I still think it's a good program. I've spent some time over the last 3 days getting more involved and commenting on other blogs and the traffic I'm getting from my new card and profile has been pretty sweet. Kinda sorry I didn't join this sooner.
