How convincing is your Entrecard image?
Is your Entrecard image is convincing, interesting, appealing, and can catch attention of people and let them click through it?
Which of the following images you wanted to click if seen on other blogs?
Using attractive and unique image in Entrecard is very effective to reap traffic to your blog. After changing the image in my Entrecard profile, the traffic I am getting from other blogs where my site is being advertised has increased by 30%.
There are lot of ways to create simple but attractive images. The first image above is my official Entrecard image and giving me a reasonable amount of traffic everyday. The old one was not effective.
Your Entrecard image is not just for dropping. It must be appealing so that people who wanted to give you a drop will be tempted to click the whole image as well.

Well, I must tell you that your new EC image looks better than before.
For me, it is really important that the image looks appealing. I think mine is also convincing simply because the blog title is there with a nice picture.
Speaking of image, beware of the fake one. I made a post out of it. Although I haven’t seen this ad again recently, I think you still should be aware about it. You can check out my post.
By the way, I own the image next to yours so I think you also find it convincing.
Thanks for the free promotion.

Yes, I knew that and I have read that also in your blog. I checked myself and found out.. EC must act on that fake image..

Great post and tip! I just started on Entrecards myself and have already seen traffic generated from there although they don’t particularly stay very long.
Will look into improving my card thats for sure.
Cheers!

Hi daryl..Just focus on dropping your card in your drop inbox and also use powerdropping.com. This is a great help to have immediate traffic..
Thanks for visiting my blog..see my other lists of resources.

Hi Raden,
Forgive me for the disagree. I do not do powerdropping anymore because most of them do not recipro-drops which means you cannot expect a drop in return. In short, your 300 drops may only be half or even less than half in back drops.
I suggest SiteHopping since you only need to increase your points with less drop, but more droppers.
It will also help if you arrange your inbox to know which blog drop you most.
I have a couple of posts about Entrecard and I hope they can help.
Lastly, I am preparing a surprise post for my Very Serious Droppers and you’re included, so pls. watch out for that.
Thanks and sorry for the long comment.

Yes, powerdropping is not updated and starting to get useless because one blog there listed multiple time because of ridirects. I dropped all 300 sites today and I only got 270.

Well I like to think in the world of blogs I’ve got a unique and compelling image going on.

Thanks Raden for sharing another great tips to increase traffic…
But, I wonder, if our purpose to make sites or blogs not only to get avid (loyal) readers, but also to make ’selling’ from our site/blog, then what’s the use of high traffic, let’s say 10000 visitors per day but no one buy anything or click our PPC there?
Perhaps, you can kindly share your unique ideas/experience to overcome those specific abovementioned matter? very much appreciated:)

Hi felinesophy,
If you are unto selling and need many visitor in a day, then a paid advertising campaigh like PPC is suggested. Or, you may hire someone to post in forums for you… Based on my experience, forum signatures in populated forums like sitepoint and digitalpoint are effective. 10000 visitors per day is not easy to achieve if you are doing free advertising.

Entrecard isnt that good if you want traffic… it gives you a bad ‘bounce rate’
i lost some massive advertisers on another blog of mine due to bounce rate =[
