A few big no-no for a blog

I’ve seen and surf a lot in Entrecard recently, looking for more spot to advertise. I don’t know about you all, but SimplyWP is quite strict on looking for the spot in Entrecard. Entrecard members started to lose their passion on Entrecard nowadays, at least it seems this way to me.

Sexy banner doesn’t make your traffic goes up

Content does. I’m sure a lot of bloggers who surf in Entrecard see a lot of sexy ladies banners, once you clicked in, the blogs are totally different with the banner itself. Well, this helps the blog to get some click through from Entrecard in a short run, but not on the long run.

Entrecard location

Previously I mentioned about putting them as high as possible on the sidebar or whatever highest place on your blog. We here, don’t look for that high, as long as it doesn’t require us to scroll a few times and LOOK for the Entrecard, it is fine. A lot of newbie did it good, that’s why recently we’re advertising on the newbie blog in Entrecard.

Background music

There is no need a background music. I mean, the reason you came into Entrecard because you want some publicity and some traffic, if not you wouldn’t have joined Entrecard. So keep your music or sound with you on your music player. Because this background music not only slowing the overall loading speed, it slow down the changes in Entrecard banner too.

Content content content

A lot of blogs I see in Entrecard using some magazine or community layout, whatever you called it. You need to keep clicking in order to see the full articles. Worse, there are tons of short articles with title on the front page. This my friend, keep it to the community. If you’re having a technology blog or any other niche content blog, let’s just use the common one. Because clicking = slowing down visitors = clicking X on the top right corner.

Back looking for some better Entrecard blogs to advertise about the next coming contest :)

  1. These are great pints – I completely agree, especially with the one about the misleading banners!

  2. Simple yet true tips. For point number 3, EntreCard has enforced a rule to delete blogs with background music.

  3. Sexy banner doesn’t make your traffic goes up

    LOL..I love the quote…..What about sexy images within a post?

    Unbalanced Libra: Ya… Just don’t really like those misleading banner :?

    Bloggin For Noive: You sure? But I see a lot from entrecard.

    Blog for Beginners: Sexy images within a post works for certain people only. “Relevant” image would be the best of course.

    I totally agree with all of these especially with the sexy banners – it’s actually cheap if you’d ask me.
