If you like my site, Follow or Subscribe NOW

B

ecause I'm getting tired of this Entrecard shit.

First, it was just a way to get more traffic and discover more blogs.

But then they changed something so that you basically had to accept all the ads from all the people who wanted to advertise on your blog.

In the beginning, I was more picky about whom I let advertise on my blog. If you've paid attention at all, you may have noticed that the blogs advertising here now aren't necessarily blogs I subscribe to or even read.

Now they want to start having paid advertisements in the widget and CHARGE THE ENTRECARD USERS if we reject the ad.

...

Besides Entrecard and Spott and other FREE networking shit, do you see any paid ads on my site?

So now they want to penalize me for not having paid advertisers on my site?

Does this make any sense?

*sigh*

I don't like change anyway, but when I get used to something the way it is, I really hate that they change it like that.

I've met some cool people through Entrecard, but I think I might just have to take my chances with having people discover my blog through other blogger's recommendations and Google.

  1. ANGELIKA, it is really sad what is happening in Entrecard. I will try to observe before making any decision about it. And even if you leave EC, I will continue to visit you for my daily dose of laughter and fun. You are on my side bar so I can easily see your updates.

    Take care!

    Much Love,

  2. They rescinded that demand so there is no fee to reject ads but I have a mind to leave too. Only because there must be a better way. I love your blog and than you for letting me advertise all of my blogs here. I'll continue to stop by so this isn't goodbye.

  3. I'm with ya. You're first on my blogroll, so I'll still visit (and don't forget where I am, either...) but I think EC's time is just about up in my world too. I may just go on an ad binge, spend the credits and let all the ads run that are scheduled and get out. I have not been nearly as vigilant about dropping. I get too involved trying to READ and COMMENT on blogs I like to be very efficient.

  4. I hate it when a good thing goes bad. I have been planning to get rid of quite a few of my sidebar squatters. This just helps me figure out which apps to get rid of.

  5. I'm with you!! I hate that they have changed things now with entrecard.

    But I will still be here...you are a daily read for me, with or without entrecard!!

    Take care,

  6. I have to agree with you on this. I'm grateful for what entrecard has done for me thus far (helped me find great blogs like yours to read!) but I'm not jazzed about the changes they're making either. I may hang around long enough to see how it works out, but I'm with Elle---let the ads run and then I'm out.
    Happy Tuesday,
    Abby

  7. All - Entrecard decided NOT to charge us a fee for rejecting paid ads, so I guess I'll be sticking with it until the next change comes along...

    Thanks for commenting! :-)
