I made my first blog site and as I want to promote my blog to the community I joined entrecard.com.
Since I'm only a newbie in blogging, I will be very glad to hear other blogger's opinions and experiences with regards to how well entrecard has promoted their site and if there are other options I can also use to promote my blog aside from it.

I have increased my traffic about 50% after I joined Entrecard. However, joining alone would not bring you the traffic but you need to be actively dropping cards on other site so that some of them would return the drops and therefore, visit your blog.
I dropped about 100 drops daily and the top users normally dropped 300 cards per blog. I do not have the time to do that and there days that I have not been able to drop anything at all. But since I have been with Entrecard for many months now, even on the days that I did nit have time to drop on any blog, I still do get quite reasonable drops from those who frequent my blogs via Entrecard. That means I do have members who visited daily to drop and some of them actually do more than dropping the EC cards but read and left some comments and that was simply awesome.
In other words, Entrecard works!
Other methods that I used to get traffic is by leaving comments on other people's blogs as well as on shoutboxes. On top of that, I also submitted my blog post to social bookmarking sites such as Diggs, StumbleUpon and a few others.
Cheers!

I have been using Entrecard for months now and I can say that it will really help increase your blog's traffic. However, you also have to put in effort in order for you to gain the benefits of using entrecard. I would suggest that you drop on active sites. Most active blogs will reciprocate the drop thus gaining traffic for your site.
