Comment posted on My Partial Success with Entrecard by Roy Blacksail

High bounce rate is the highest draw back of Entrecard. Of course you will always have a pretty high bounce rate because of people like you (and me) who try to do the most with EntreCard while spendig the least amount of time on it, which rarely means stopping to check out every website you drop on.

The one obvious tip is to drop mostly on people in your niche or related ones. Tey have the highest chance to be interested in your site

  • 5 Steps to Finding the Best Torrents
    As an avid user and believer in torrents i love to see people spreading the news/ tips about them. I find it shocking when some of my friends ask me how i download stuff and have no idea what im talking about when I reply torrents.
    Unfortunately people don’t always have the luxury of choosing torrents with alot of comments or a good ratio of seeders to leechers. My musical taste makes it hard sometimes to find even one torrent of a band I want. One time it took my 3 months to download 1 album because there was 1 seeder, 0 leechers, and that seeder seemed to rarely be online. In cases like there where comments are not an option to judge the quality be sure to scan the files to check for viruses, hopefully they get caught.
  • A Minor Tweak for the Top Commentators Plugin
    Awesome information (i never say that unless i mean it by the way, sometimes ill say great if im just being nice…)

    I comment for any combination of these 4 reasons, im actually interested in the post, becuase they commeted on me recently (but i still have to be somewhat interested in their post), to intice them to comment on me, and for traffic.

    This kind of information is really helpful and unique, never seen it anywhere before, just like your recent alexa widget post acutal. You seem to have a drive to dig for the truth which is great. Ill probably make this change on my blog and let my readers know about it, ill be sure to provide a link to where i got the information.
    It does kind of surprise me that your name alone didnt tur up much results, but then again i its a common name i guess it makes sense

  • Alexa Widget does not help Alexa Ranking - Proven
    Good to know, i’ve wondered about this, but only a little bit, because like alot of people I feel that alexa ranking is pretty unaccurate/useless. Pretty much its only a statistic of how many people who want their sites to rank high on alexa visit your site. Which when considering that probably 95% or more of internet users dont know what alexa is doesnt exactly make it the holy grail of success. I didnt even know what it was until i was blogging for a month or two.
    Still, it would be nice to say I’m in the top 100,000.

  1. Work At Home says:

    Congrats on your higher % of return drops. I agree with on the bounce rate. After checking with google analytics on one of my site with Entrecard which have 100% traffic from Entrecard, the bounce rate shows at 93%++. This is at alarming rate. Hope you could find some solution for this.

  2. Wow! You’ve been through lots of work to get traffic. Why not spend half of the time to comment on other people’s blog. You might get more traffic by getting bloggers to come to your blog and building relationship with them.

    You forgot the key of blogs and the purpose of blogging, I think I’ll need to remind all!

  3. anshul says:

    Ya buddy i totally agree with you me too sorting out this problem. I was not doing drops before but once i started dropping more than 200 i got 100 drop back for sure but bounce rate more than 70% and that blunder. It must lie near to 55%. Now i have started collecting blogs to selective drops and for this i thing we need blogs to drop that like our blog to read daily for sure it will take time but can be used effectively.

  4. Key to blog and purpose of blogging?

    I think each person have their own purpose of blogging. Same are about making money, some are about sharing, some are about releasing stress, some are giving convenience to their friends or clients. The book “corporate blogging” by Debbie Weil shows that blog can’t be used for more than 12 purposes.

    Anyway, I want to thank Abdul for dropping a comment on my blog. I realized that your comment fall into the Akismet Spam and I accidentally delete it. I’m not sure is it because the name you used or the email. Hope this info will help :)

    Great to know your blog!

    A Blog is a weB LOG, which is meant to be read and not come and go with a total duration of 10 seconds, you get my point?

    I totally agree, about 60% of the websites I drop on are in the Make money online category, but however there are some topics which attract all types of people!

    Is the bounce thing bad for your blog?

    Abdul Reply:

    Yea, the bounce rate tells what percentage of your visitors leave your website without navigating any further!

    Yeah, you’re right that blog should be read and commented. But you must take account that many blogger are busy to improve their traffic ranking and make some drop and go. It’s fully depend on you how you blogging. You can stick around and hang out with some blogging network. But, in EC there’s a chance for a blogger to raise ranking without difficulties just stop by and drop. It’s a dilemma.
