Today I was perusing a certain store and I found an item that caught my attention. The store was the Entrecard shop and the product was a custom logo design. This logo design cost me 500 Entrecard Credits, an amount which I found considerable.

The logo will be done in the next few days, and I hope that the end result is successful. I want a brand / header image that really captures the essence of this site and the environment that it fosters. My plan for this site is to share with you everything that I know and everything that I learn about making money online through blogging or affiliate marketing. I am certain that this aspect is quite nebulous and I hope that the designer that works on my logo will be able to understand what I mean.

500ec, although a big part of my Entrecard bank account, is quite a deal for a custom designed logo. Services on Digital Point range from $20 and up, so I was thrilled to know I could get the same service for Entrecard Credits. I think that a new logo will help me to spruce up my branding now that I have the owl at my side. The owl, along with some catchy typeography could help make my site more memorable. I think the owl is doing a good job; since adding him to my site I’ve seen my RSS readership and daily visits go up. That may also have something to do with my guests posts at other blogs, but for now let’s just assume it was the owl.

Last week I wrote about Entrecard, a new social website that I joined in order to increase traffic to this website.  Since joining Entrecard, I must say that I am impressed with its ability to drive traffic to websites.  I have seen the this site’s traffic jump up drastically since I joined.

I think that Entrecard can do the same for you, and that’s why I am starting the very first contest for this website!

Up for grabs will  be at least 100 credits to Entrecard so that you can advertise your site on several other websites.  Advertising starts at just 2 credits, so with 100 credits you can put your site on as many as 50 websites!
