1. No nudity: Entrecard, and its members blogs, are generally family friendly. Blogs with images containing nudity are not permitted. This includes nudity in advertisements.
2. English only: Until we develop the infrastructure necessary to facilitate non-English language blogs, English is the only language allowed in Entrecard.
3. Minimum 5 posts: Blogs with no posts, or less than 5 quality posts written within the last 3 months, will be removed.
4. Content must be original: Reproduced content does not provide the specific qualities we are looking for in the Entrecard network. This includes both sites that use legitimate reprintable content such as “free articles”, abstracts and public domain content as well as illegitimate, illegal content such as stolen content or scraped feeds. Duplicate content, such as posts that appear on two or more blogs belonging to the same person is also unacceptable.
5. No full-screen ads or popups: Blogs that include full-screen ads or popups will be removed. This includes any popup window that appears when the site has finished loading or when clicking to view an article. It is OK for links to display a popup window if the user clicks a link, e.g. FeedBurner email subscription, but popup ads or forceful messages asking people to subscribe without clicking anything are intrusive and therefore not allowed.
6. No illegal file downloads: Blogs that link to illegally shared files, such as music, movies or software, will be removed. By “illegal” we mean content that you do not have the right to distribute. Linking to free, legal music and software is permitted.
7. Entrecard widget must be present: Including the widget on your site is a requirement if you wish to participate in Entrecard.
8. No redirects: Sites that use a redirect (such as tinyurl links) as the URL on their account will be deleted.
9. No duplicate accounts: If you have more than one account for the same blog, the duplicate account will be deleted.
10. URLs must be valid: Sites with URLs that do not work or are wrongly typed will be deleted.
11. No autoplaying audio: This includes music that plays automatically when you visit the page, or short audio ads that come up unannounced.
12. Content must be recent: Sites that have not been updated in 3 months will be removed.

This week I added a popup referred to my newsletter on Mr Javo dot Com. This popup will show up just ONCE per visitor,  so you don’t have to worry about. However that’s an experiment, so may be I will remove it in the next weeks.

Rewarding my Top Commentator

Once again, this month my top commentator was Dennis Edell. Man, I know you love my blog and I want to thank you so much for leaving these great comments here, but let the others win!! So as I said in the newsletter, you cannot be rewarded again until after 2 months since your last award. So let’s check who the winner is…

It seems like there are 2 winners this month! To be fair, I will give to both kouji and Ben Pei, a text link for a month on my blog! So guys, use the contact form to send me the details of your submission: title, url and alt text for your link.
