First you would need to know about Entrecard credits to understand the concept of building these free links from good quality blogs. In simple words, Entrecard is the blog community to get free traffic by placing your ad on other blogs. We can earn Entrecard credits by dropping our card to other blogs and getting the similar cards on our blog as well. Earlier even reaching to 500 credits was a big task as there were not many blogs in the community but now there are 1000s of blogs, so earning 1000-2000 credits in a month is not a big deal.
Now here is the interesting thing, how to use these entrecard Credits? I would be spending those ECs on recently added blogs with good and other than EC traffic where we barely need 2-20 credits to spend but not on highly priced blogs but with low traffic rankings. Remaining EC credits, I would prefer to keep in my account. Interestingly many bloggers still don’t have many credits in their account and want them to advertise on those highly priced blogs, alright that’s fine! These blogs look for some free Entrecard credits being in ‘casual and relax’ category of EC droppers.
Now here are simple steps for you to get free backlinks offering your Entrecard credits to the participant bloggers.
- Host a Entrecard credit giveaway contest asking for just a backlink from their post and declare the price of Entrecard credits [around 500 EC credits to 1000 EC credits should be good].
- Another way of hosting the contest is to give away the EC credits to everyone who would write about your blog or give you a simple backlink.
- Drop messages to the friends and blogs at Entrecard from categories like blogging resources or Internet marketing - where the blogs are about web traffic, blogging, marketing, making money online etc.
- Submit your blog contest link to contest bloggers, contact them directly or comment on their post.
- You shall see participation from your fellow bloggers depending on your marketing tactics and spreading the word about the contest.
Certainly, you would see increase in your backlinks & apparently increase in your technorati rankings as well. What did you spend to gain these quality backlinks, nothing else but your free entrecard credits, isn’t it? You would know the value of each backlink, when you would be asked to pay anything between $5 to $40 for backlinks from quality blogs. Then why not to get it for free by spending some of your free Entrecard credits.
