Got a Whole Page Ad in your Blogs?

I've just completed my 300 Entrecard drops for my call center blog. I did it quite fast because of the Entrecard toolbar that I have here in Mozilla. :) Good thing I never encountered a blogger attack site unlike last time.

But I what I wanted to share with you today is how I'm turned off by some of the blogs that have a whole page ads in it. I did not only notice a couple of them, but I remembered seeing roughly seven to ten blogs all in all (based on the list of blogs where I dropped my EC).

It just turns me off. I mean, most of the bloggers wanted to make money online. That's fine. You can show ads on your blog because those ads can also bring in money, well and good.

But what I can't stand is the fact that these blogs load so slow just because of those whole page ads running before the actual content does load on the page. It's just so sad that instead of me reading your post and leaving comments on your blog, you made me leave you, my dear blogger.

I know that to each is own, you may agree or disagree, love or hate me. But I won't visit your blogs until I know that it is your post that I will see first and not the whole page box with the X mark to close so just I can see what you have in your page. :}

One Way to Use Entrecard

I know of some bloggers who say that Entrecard is useful only when you can make 300 drops each day. While that might be partly true, there are other ways that you can benefit from being part of this blogging community.

How about this? Let's say you've just written a very informative and wonderful post that you think a lot of people would have a good time reading it. How can you, sort of, spread the word?

Through Entrecard.

After publishing your post, start dropping your EC especially to those bloggers whom you think would like your post. About 100 drops would be enough but if you have the time, by all means do 300 drops.

This is like tapping these bloggers and whispering to them, "Hey, why not visit my blog today? I've got something really nice posted there."

:)

Bug in Entrecard?

Since I was a member of Entrecard, my blogging day is not complete without doing the EC droppings on all my blogs.

Just like now, I am starting to do it again if not for the message that I see on my screen.

Whew! That's why I need to work double time to divert my efforts in other social media as well. Have you had the same error message on your screen now?

Reported Attack Site

Remember what I mentioned on my last post about me loving Firefox 3? Take a look at this picture.

I'm doing my regular dropping yesterday when I saw this warning on the screen. Too bad for the blog because I wasn't able to pay her a visit and drop my EC. But too good for me that I was given a warning and so that protected my laptop for possible technical harm.

If you haven't tried Mozilla Firefox 3 yet, this is the best time to do so.

Drop Entrecard when America is asleep

If you're an Entrecarder like me who finds it hard to drop cards at times because of connection or server problems, I have a suggestion for you.

Drop your ECs when America is asleep ;)

I already tested this weeks ago and I found out that it is better to do all these dropping activities during my local (day) time here in the Philippines.

I would like to hear the best time(s) that you can drop all these ECs to promote your blog. Maybe we can try your tip as well and benefit from what you know, fellow Entrecarders ;)

What Happened to Entrecard?

I was trying to drop my cards for my three blogs yesterday until today when I noticed something wrong with Entrecard.The Dashboard page does not appear everytime I hit the refresh icon on my Mozilla Firefox window. I thought it was just a temporary glitch but the problem was never resolved until today. Sigh!

Well, if the only consolation was that I was able to use my extra time online to write content for my blogs. I appreciate your visits here. Feel free to leave a comment here okay? I would also be more than happy to learn from you and your money making online experience. ;)

Today.com snobs Filipino Bloggers?

It took me a lot of days before I was able to come up with a post here on my new baby, 24x7 Online Diva. I was so busy attending to my day job and so I missed being here.

Anyway, I'm here to blog about Today.com. I saw a box ad about it in one of the blogs I visit everyday. The blogger also mentioned that today.com pays bloggers per post if they will blog using today.com.

So I clicked on the ad and the link which prompts me to create and account and this is what I got:


No worries, there are a lot of other ways to make money online anyway. ;)
