I was one of the first few people to sign up with Entrecard before it spread to the pubic. In the last few months I have discovered some interesting marketing techniques and ideas surrounding Entrecard. I am not going to be able to post all the ideas in one blog post, so I will spread it out. I will focus on one main idea per post. Today, I am going to talk about credit give-a-ways.

People love free credits, and that is no lie. But, the number one thing people don’t want to do is figure out how to get those free credits you advertised in the forums. When I get to your site and have to read a long instruction list on how to receive the free credits, you have already lost me. Of course if you are offering a ton of free credits like 5,000+ then maybe I will devote a little more time to figuring it out.

This brings me to my first tip. When giving away credits, make it easy and fun. Nobody wants to decipher your blog enigma code in order to figure out how to score those credits. If you want RSS subscribers, say you will give 300 credits each to the first 10 RSS subscribers.

So, with that said, if you are in the market for 300 credits, simply subscribe to my RSS feed and comment that you did in this post.
