Entrecard Offers New Features & Credits!

The Entrecard system continues to update and expand, which is a great thing for all us bloggers. There's been some great recent changes made including the recent "add a blog" feature.

This gives bloggers the ability to add multiple blogs to one account. You can then divy up credits amongst them for easier, more efficient ad campaigns. Previously you would have to set up separate accounts for each blog you own, then log-in and log-out to do your advertising campaigns. It's much simpler to switch back and forth between blogs now.

Right now Entrecard is giving away 75,000 credits as well. They will be awarding 15,000 credits to ONE lucky blogger in each of these five different blog owner categories:

2-5 blogs in account
5-10 blogs in account
10-15 blogs in account
15-20 blogs in account
20-25 blogs in account

The above credits will be awarded to the winners on June 25th.

In addition, Entrecard recently released a free Entrecard ebook which anyone can download with helpful info about the EC system. Definitely something to have handy, as I've already downloaded my copy!

Best part of all this is Entrecard wants to reward any bloggers who help spread the word. If you blog about their new free e-book and contest, they will give you 2,000 credits on June 25th. So what are you waiting for? 2,000 credits is a good bit of advertising folks, so get in on the opportunity while it's still going on!

Using RSS to Get Deep Links

Every now and then I get inspired to work a bit on my Squidoo lenses and update them. As you may or may not know, The Monetizer is a huge fan of Squidoo because it's yet another free to use, free-hosted web real estate you can set up to make money. It can be a great passive source of income if you put in the groundwork. Squidoo is also invaluable in terms of promotion of your blog, affiliate links, referral links and much, much more.

While I was poking around Squidoo I came across a great leans which discusses using RSS feeds to gain deep links back to your Squidoo lenses. Of course, you can take this logic and also apply it to your own blog or website with its RSS feed. If you've burned the feed on Feedburner or another RSS site, you can start submitting to RSS directories and adding your feed to several other places.

If you have 1 blog or multiple blogs, consider setting up Hub Pages, Squidoo pages and even a Quarter Wiki page or two if you can afford it (they cost just a quarter a piece, you have to buy a minimum of 4). Facebook also allows for integration of RSS feeds into your profile. These are at least 4 places you can stick your RSS feeds in addition to submitting it to the various RSS directory sites. The great thing is that all the blog entry titles you have are part of your feed and these link back to your blog, as does your blog title. So the more places you submit the RSS feed(s) to, the better it will be for your blog in the long run!
