How do you feel about the EntreCard/SezWho partnership?

And if you are an EntreCard user do you think this will bring more comments and readership to your blog?

I am waiting to see how much it takes off and how early adopters respond before installing/signing up for the new thingy.

Well they claim people who install it will get 10-20 comments for every post they make .... we shall see if this works like they plan.

It's a good thing.

It will help with the extreme droppers out there.

The shallow visitor pool is what's killing Entrecard.

It's basically just a game and people try to earn as many credits as fast as possible.

Maybe they'll actually do some good by making quality comments on our blogs.

It is a positive for sure!

I love the new comment widget on my blogs!

Looks nice.

I only use entrecard on my sbf blog because e only post a couple times a month at most so we need to drive traffic. I know nothing about sezwho but if it requires me to spend time doing something it won't work for me. It's bad enough they decrease my price when I refuse a blog I can't imagine what would happen if I actually started having to post something like comment on blogs I really didn't like.

  It's not mandatory.
  
  It's just another way to earn credits.
  
  You earn credits by commenting through SezWho.
  
  You can only earn 15 credits a day though.
  
  So that sucks.
  
  1 credit for one comment I believe.
  
  It takes 24 hrs for the credits to show up.

I'm still considering it. I'll probably check it out on other blogs first before I add it to mine.

  You should. I was skeptical at first, but it's really nice. I think you would enjoy it. It might take awhile for the comment widget to show up, but it's worth it. Enjoy.

maybe they should increase the credits for commenting.. an ingenious idea though, really helps bring down your bounce rate!

  Yes they should raise it.
  
  They're to stingy with the credits as it is.

  I agree, we all need more comments. Plus I'm sure some of us need our bounce rate come down.

I've added it, seeing how it all works out, and it's gone the second I don't like it. Not real important to me, but I do like the idea of it, not even really the gaining credits, just the general sezwho thing.

Not sure about it for a start it will increase stupid comments on blogs, the spam filter will go haywire. I would prefer quality comments.

Wont belong before there are a few programmes to auto post for you out either

I don't know I'm new to entrecard and I haven't got it all figured out yet.

I'm not sure if I'm going to load it. I have enough problems when Entrecard keeps hanging my Web browser up or kicking me off when I'm dropping cards. I'm afraid Sezwho might make the problem worse.

I don't think so.

Well JoeTech.com tried to make the most blatant statement the same day the partnership started he claimed his bounce rate had already dropped 50% yet he said this drop in his bounce rate all happened within a few hours.... Do you think EntreCard's owners paid JoeTech to make such a claim?

I juz got in to EntreCard/SezWho commenting system yesterday , Lets see how it goes before I pass any judgement on it

FYI : JoeTech.com stated "...at least 50% of the traffic [EntreCard] from is commenting." It is possible previously it was just Dropping a card and off u go . but now there is a good chance the visitor might read something and post their view on it as well

Hi, it is not nice to write the death certificate for a new born baby. Let's give it a try. I saw a new thread in the entre card group and was surprised to find that our ec members have not replied.

I think it's a step forward in the right direction. A good decision taken to increase the quality of the overall system.
