What? Farewell?

It's time for a change! It's a new month, the sun is starting to shine, and I am ending my Entrecard participation! This blog has been up for just over a month now and I've been dropping cards like crazy, day in and day out without receiving much in return.

At one point we had 208 cards dropped on us and things were actually looking pretty good for Entrecard. Well, then they decided to change their ad pricing system and there seems to have been a huge falling off for participation. The Sports section has essentially died as well as the Make Money Online group.

I can easily drag in 100-150 people a day to the site just to drop, but I'm finding the work put in to reach that number is not really worth it. I will continue to drop for 2 more weeks and that's it. I've also purchased our last few ads just to see what may happen and once those have run their course I will stop that activity as well.


What about your credits?

I'd like to give them all away to you! Right now I am sitting at 5000+ credits with 8 ads purchased from us left to run. (That total will obviously go up after the ads are finished running.) I will also try to drop 300 cards everday for the next few weeks just to give it an extra boost. You could easily walk away with 7500+ credits to use to purchase either a ton of ads or maybe even a few big ones!


So how do we win this MOUND of credits Mr. Kellex?

A winner will be decided on May 16th using The Sports Dollar's Super Fancy Lottery System. (I should trademark that biz!)


And how the hell do we enter into this lottery?

The game is easy and you can do any or all of the following to better your chances. You will receive the amount of virtual tickets listed as you complete each task.

• 150 Tickets: Write a short post or blurb about this contest with a minimum of 100 words. Make sure to link back to this post and also state the 7500+ credits somewhere.

• 100 Tickets: Post our 125x125 banner linking back to us somewhere on your blog for the duration of the contest. You can combine this into your short blurb on the contest to kill two birds with one whoppin' stone. (Here is the link to it)
  

• 50 Tickets: Subscribe to our RSS feed. (Sorry long-termies, but you have to be a new subscriber.)

• 10 Tickets: Stumble it! (Idea courtesy of "Blog Me the Money")
  

That's it people! Pretty simple stuff and you could be entered into this within minutes really. Make sure to drop me a comment once you have completed any of the requests so that I know it has been done. (And by the way, when you leave a comment, make sure you have a blog attached to it so I know who the hell you are.)

If you can think of other ways you would like to help promote the contest, please let me know and it may be worth additional tickets.

I will be keeping track of all the tickets up until the last day when we will decide the winner! Thanks for playing!

***UPDATE***UPDATE***

MORE PRIZES!!

We have had a great initial reaction to the contest in just the first couple of days and the totals have been skyrocketing! A suggestion was made to give out consolation prizes and you know what, I think that is a fantastic idea.

Our initial goal was to hit 7500 credits and give those all away, but from the looks of it we could easily hit 10,000! If we hit 10,000 credits by May 16th, then we'll have enough to give out a second and a third place prize! (Prizes will be determined toward the end of the contest.)

So keep spreading the word! The more participation we get, the more credits and chances you'll have of winning!
