Yeah, so I have’nt checked up on Entrecard for a while. Sure, I am still subscribed to their blog feed so I get the headlines of the latest news, but I’ve been so caught up in other projects I kinda left Entrecard sitting dust.

As you should know, Entrecard has launched a paid ad network. Blogs and websites alike can sign up and purchase, with real money, ads on Entrecard members’ blogs. While, you don’t get any of the cut for approving paid ads directly, it is beneficial in two ways.

1) Sell Credits – now, you can sell your Entrecard credits to Entrecard and make money. 75% of the revenue from paids ads goes to the members, with only 25% going to support Entrecard. With this, the option to sell Entrecard credits is available.

2) Entrecard is Supported – This is probably the best idea Entrecard has come up with to try and earn some money. One of my biggest concerns has been- is Entrecard earning enough money to stay afloat? For a while, the answer has been “barely”. This new network should surely improve this, and that makes me happy.

I love seeing little companys that put so much in for their members and community to start earning some money to finally be fully financially supported, and even starting to profit. Graham is someone who I, and probably many members of the Entrecard community, have grown to trust and respect. He’s put a lot of work into this, and deserves to be rewarded. While I sound like this new network is going to make him rich, that’s doubtful. It’s hard to say how much exactly they will be taking in, and how much it goes to supporting Entrecard (probably nearly all of it).

However, there is no doubt that this new ad network will surely benefit Entrecard and its members.
