| Entrecard Exploited & Internet Marketing in Poor Taste - Have you been hit by the "Z" monster? |
If you are an active Entrecard dropper, you might have noticed an annoying ad that's been popping up all over the blogosphere... I'd like to call it the fake entrecard "Z" monster (a useless waste of time website whose owners think tricking people into visiting will actually make them stay longer than it takes to hit the close button). Now This is an ad that is made to look like an entrecard spot where you can drop your card while visiting other blogs. But no, it's a sorry attempt at getting unsuspecting folks to click through to the advertiser's website. I have to admit, I fell for this one a few time trying to drop my card. In my defense, some of the blogs that feature this dumb ad, have it appear higher on the page than the actual entrecard widget, and the "Z" monster is spreading like wild fire. You would think this site at the very least has an entrecard widget - but no. Here are just a few examples of the blogs that feature this tricky sponsor (blogs kept anonymous to protect the owners - but you know who you are) Can you spot the fake?    Now this is not just another disgruntled post. This is basically a plea to all blogs who approved this ad to run on their website: this ad annoys me and others - please remove it! It adds no credibility to your blog and the pennies a day you are making will turn away entrecard members who might otherwise check your site out. This has been a public service announcement message from Rak-Wholesale.com. Thanks
