It's been 3 days now that I've gotten myself registered on EntreCard (to know more about EntreCard, you can refer to this interview with Graham Langdon by Darren Rowse of the Problogger fame). I absolutely loved the service. What intrigued me the most is the idea of a "visiting card" for your blog. While I was browsing through the endless list of blogs listed out there, I was kind of impressed with the beautiful 125x125 cards that people had designed for themselves. In contrast, i had the one above which hardly looks snazzy. Yet, Transparent Hypnotist, another member, messaged me pointing out that there is a certain romance in my card too. It is the very simplicity of the same that pulls viewers' attention towards it. However, I still decided to go on with a revamped design that I could use as a logo too, for Labyrinth. This is where EntreCard helped me a lot. It is via Entrecard that I got connected to Chemist2dio who is a graphic designer and has promised me to design me a lovely card. I just had the privilege to check out the initial design and i must say, I am impressed! I'll unveil the logo as soon as it gets built up, which shouldn't be more than 4-5 days, I assume.
Oh, by the way, I have currently been vacationing for the past 2 days and it is because of this that I haven't been able to post as frequently as I'd have liked. I promise to get more regular the day I reach back home. After that, i do plan to write a few pretty little pieces on EntreCard, my experiences as a member and my analysis of the usefulness of the system.

Yes EntreCard can be a lot of fun and brings some decent traffic along with it.
I should really look at hiring someone to do a better card for me.

Yep, it does bring traffic, but you also got to have a site that's capable of converting those chain droppers into subscribers. there is another thing that's been worrying me, regarding entrecard. Planning to write a full-fledged post about it, soon. By the way, wot's your blog's URL? Was planning to visit it.

My blogs url is http://www.tenaciuscreations.com .
I don't worry too much about the chain droppers anymore. I am getting a lot of RSS subscribers and better yet a lot of comments.
I was a bit worried as the price to advertise on my blog kept going up that less people would want to advertise. But I am happy to say that as of yet it has not been a problem.
