How to Earn Money Using Entrecard


I’m new to the entrecard system. I joined about 2 weeks ago but the idea of getting something from entrecard more than just the traffic is something that keeps on recurring in my random thoughts about making money online.

It is undoubtedly the traffic which entrecard generate that gets more and more bloggers to get hooked into it. Because of this it has also become a great tool for most of its users to market their blog without the huge monetary cost involved when you do the same marketing outside.

By getting sufficient exposure within the entrecard community, you better your chance of getting more visitors, more readers, and perhaps more earnings from your CPC, CPM, or Sponsor ads. This is one of the ways to generate earnings from entrecard indirectly. This is why, to get more attention, there had been countless efforts made (be it creative or simply copying), such as contests, which involves entrecard points in exchange for doing something for the one conducting the bonanza. All of it in exchange for a highly-trafficked and highly profitable blog.

Besides getting traffic to increase their ad earnings, some have resorted to selling their entrecard credits for a monetary value, usually within the range of $10 per 1000ec and sometimes lower. This is how you earn using entrecard directly. Before, the selling isn’t too easy to spot. Some say there’re in e-bay (have seen only 5 to date), but most of the time you’ll see it announced in the entrecard user’s blog if he’s selling or not and how you’ll be transacting. Today though, there are sites dedicated to buying and selling entrecard credits such as entrecash and entrecredits. Then there’s entrebank, where according to sources, you can loan entrecard credits (I don’t know personally how this works. I’ve attempted to visit the site but can’t see any word about "loaning" or "borrowing").

Then there are those who offer their services for entrecard credits. Entrecard design, blog reviews, professional consultations, guest blogging, the list goes on and on. See the entrecard shop for examples. It’s like free publicity at the same time. I think this also falls in the indirect monetization of entrecard system.

If you’re really interested in making raw bucks out of entrecard or just getting the most out of it, here are some great reads that I’ve discovered which could help you a lot:


So far I still have no plans of selling entrecard credits since I only have 400ec in my account. I guess I still have to focus on marketing my blog better within the entrecard community to get more credits and improve my traffic.
