Do you drop yours? Entrecard that is!

Welcome to Blogging Sueblimely. To keep up with my posts you can subscribe to my RSS feed and follow me on Twitter. Thanks for visiting!

Apologies for the title, I could not resist. What I have been dropping is my Entrecard - a kind of internet calling card. You can see where Entrecard members drop theirs for me - in my right sidebar. Once I have built up enough credits by pressing on the “drop yours’ button on other member sites I can then use these to advertise my site. I also earn credits when others drop in on me.

It is too early to say if this will just bring some one off visitors or returning readers but I will keep you informed. In the meantime I think the concept is clever and it appealed to me as being a fun way of gaining some more recognition for this new blog. I only need to visit and drop on sites that interest me, giving kudos where it is due. I only have to accept ads and place ads on sites I choose. I can avoid spammy sites and even if they visit this site they are not leaving - “will you drop on me/fav me, vote for me’ type pleas.

I suspect I should have a site logo on my calling card rather than my image but I did not realize it at the time. At least I did not use the Christmas hat picture I have put on MyBlogLog :-)

Have any of you found such link exchange type schemes effective?

PS. I forgot mention that it was Mark of Me and My Drum that put me on to this. Thanks Mark. I showed my appreciation by buying a text link for the first time ever, on your Top Spots.
