Entrecard is for Sale: Publicity Stunt / Death Blow / Or Killer App of Blogging?

September 26th, 2008 admin Leave a comment Go to comments

In case you have not heard Entrecard is for sale. This ad network has over 80 million impressions per month mainly on smaller blogs. The domain Entrecard.com is also for sale. Monthly revenue from Entrecard.com is only $2,000 a month which is much lower than I ever thought.

The ad network itself is growing at 16% a month with 3 million clicks per month. It was launched by one person almost a year ago by one person.

A venture capitalist deal just fell through and so the owner is selling on Sitepoint.com due to family problems and growth problems. Supposedly the valuation is $8 million and I would guess initial bids would start at $700,000.

But is Graham Really Selling Entrecard or just looking to attract attention and another Venture Capital Company

I would say that there is no way Graham is going to sell Entrecard especially for the lowball offers he will get on Sitepoint during a down economy. This will however get the attention of other VC companies and the original VC running back to the table.

    Entrecard for Free Advertising. Is this the same person who started something like miilion dollar and wiki? Lots of bloggers (and some top one) last year opined that the so called wiki is the greatest invention since the slice bread. VCs are lining up. Hollywood is ready for a movie. Hmm! what happened to that site? It will be nice to check it out in Alexa
