Bloggista.com recently purchased at the EntreCard Shop a new 125×125 logo widget that comes with a free 468×60 banner for just 500EC’s!

Its my first taste of a professionally designed widget (as I did all my previous banner and widget designs myself using PowerPoint and Microsoft Paint! - LOL). Thanks to Eddy over at Magpies Zone whom I made my purchase. In just a day, he came up with brilliant designs and I immediately grabbed them.

I have simplistic tastes in terms of Design, and these designs from Eddy should be a great start. For some of you guys who want to try it out, Eddy is more than willing (and is always ready to do business) to design your own for just 500EC.

Next project - a professional looking (and an exclusive) Bloggista.com Theme. I wonder if somebody over at EC Shop accepts such project.

Ever wanted to have your own cool 80×15 button and you just don’t have the talent to create one yourself (just like me LOL)? Don’t worry, a cool free utility is here, brought to us by a fellow entrecarder, Sebastiano.

The utility is very easy to use, noob-friendly but with awesome output. I managed to create mine in half a minute.

Here are ‘my creations’.

On March 10, this blog will be two months old, and will also mark my first 60 days of trying to make money online. Sure I have other blogs, since I started blogging late November 2007, but there was never a genuine effort to monetize those sites.

I have seen several bloggers who posted their online earnings - those were amazing, I could only wish I could do it too, but, being new and ignorant about making money online ( I couldn’t disagree with Entrepreneur’s comments), I still have lots to learn, and I know it won’t happen overnight, just like what Darren the ProBlogger shared in his great blog.

Am I compelled to show off my very little online earnings? Nope, but in my life, whenever I want to achieve something, I always put a big reminder on a place where I see it everyday- in my office cubicle, in my room, in my car… And since I get to see my blog everyday, I decided to post these numbers to remind me to work harder and reach my goals.

Wow its only a few weeks from now when Google once again manifests their might to all netizens and bloggers alike - Page rank update.

I don’t know much about this ranking thing and SEO, but I do dream of getting a better page rank for my site as well. With so much going on lately in terms of traffic generation and site hits - there’s no doubt Entrecard will play a vital role in getting better page rank.

Some entrecarders did really well in getting as much traffic to their sites through contests and strategies to ‘lure’ other entrecarders into their sites. But its not just all entrecard - these are blog sites with excellent contents as well.

And here’s my fearless forecast for my top 5 favorite entrecarders, in no particular order:

Entrecard created several fuss lately, indeed! Critics claim that Entrecard doesn’t give you real traffic - as droppers are just dropping entrecards like bombs and leave your site quickly. John Cow and the others already made their last drop, and vowed never to use it again.

However, fans of Entrecard are looking at a different point of view. Does the Entrecard revolutionizes the way traffics are being generated? Perhaps the Pro’s may have their point - even me, I don’t really spend too much time on a site after dropping my entrecard - but I should say because of Entrecard, I have seen lots of good blogs where I bookmarked and find useful for newbie bloggers like me.
