Extreme Dropping is Not Allowed
Alert! Alert!
Special thanks to Scott and the weekly forum roundup for this week for pointing out a thread in the Entrecard forums about “Extreme Dropping”.
The only site I know have that has this “Extreme Dropping” scheme is, well, ExtremeDropping.com. What this evil site provides is a link to a blank page displaying only a user’s Entrecard widget.
This pretty much defeats the whole purpose of Entrecard. It’s about getting your blog noticed. How is anyone going to get noticed if the Entrecard widget isn’t shown on blogs, instead they are being shown on crappy hidden pages?
Two things you can do to better Entrecard:
1. Don’t use ExtremeDropping.com or any similar site. We need to discourage using this sneaky technique.
2. Don’t create a “split-out widget page”, or a page that just has your Entrecard widget on it. You’ll actually get banned for this now!
