Entrecard

According to the Social Media Guide Mashable WordPress issued a challenge to the blogging community to write at least one article a day (or week) in 2011. From a marketing perspective, consistent and content-rich articles are a sure fire way to increase your websites visibility. To that end I’ll accept this challenge and make my attempt at providing highly relevant and powerful content geared at helping to increase your online business productivity. One way that I’ve found can accomplish this is Entrecard. More on this in a few, but first some background.

Search engine spiders are constantly crawling websites for pertinent information in order to output this to their search visitors. Performing the necessary search engine optimization on one’s website is one way to go about increasing your brand’s marketing efforts.

Paid advertising such as Microsoft’s Adcenter is another way to increase traffic to your website. What other ways, you might be thinking, are there to increase visibility and notoriety to your brand. Better yet, what Free ways are there to accomplish this? Entrecard is one such free platform that allows website owners to advertise their blogs for free. The Entrecard platform serves as a ‘virtual business card’ that lets you advertise on other websites that carry the Entrecard banner.

Entrecard boasts a participating community of over 40,000 websites. There are also third-party services that have sprung up around the Entrecard services. Some of these services allow one to ‘drop’ or vote for popular websites within the Entrecard community.

The idea behind dropping is simple. When you visit a site carrying the Entrecard banner and ‘drop’ on their website widget, you get points that can be used to advertise on category-specific websites within your particular niche. Savvy marketers will use this in conjunction with various third-party services to consistently ‘drop’ on several hundred/thousand websites at a time. This practice makes it relatively easy to get several hundreds, if not thousands, of visitors to your site daily.
