Checking out EntreCard Ad-Network
As you already know (yes you should check my miniblog) EntreCard is running their own ad-network now.
I did a test run with $25 funds, promoting my color picker software in their Web Development category. Here is the results:
From the results you can see that the CPM rate was $0.4927, and CPC rate was $0.1096. I guess they run a combination of two types. In total I got 50,739 impressions and 228 clicks for my $25 bucks.
My funds were depleted right away within 24 hours, that’s because they do not provide daily limit options.
Here is how campaign creation page looks:
Yeah, it’s dead simple. No daily limits, no campaign type (cpc, cpm) selection. Also at first they did reject my website, I don’t know why, perhaps it was not a blog? But then I see they re-approved it.
Selling your credits
I am sure most of you had EntreCard accounts and perhaps some of you have some credits in their accounts still. If you do, now you can sell them for $1 for every 1000 entrecard credits as announced by EC founder on his tweet.
So, it’s time to make money if you had thousands of credits in your EC account! If you are new, you can always sign up for EC now.
In general I think it’s a good move by EC to open their own ad-network, both for advertisers and bloggers.

Might have a go at this - it seems fairly good value. How does it compare to adwords?
By Marketing Man on May 3, 2009
Now the question is….is 228 clicks good value for your $25?

First and most importantly, all the cashout applications have now been dealt with and either approved or denied. Thank you for being patient with us while we tested in the Beta Phase, worked out the kinds, and got the whole thing spinning.Hopefully you can start earning some money.
