Blogs Not Accepting Paid Entrecard Ads

I have started a list of blogs that are not accepting paid Entrecard Ads (in my right hand sidebar). If you are not accepting paid ads and would like to be added to this list please leave me a message along with the URL of your blog and I will get it on my list.
I will check the list periodically but if you see a blog on the list that has changed and is accepting paid ads please let me know about this also.

Thanks!

tstreasures said...

I'm thinking of joining all of you who are NOT accepting any paid ads. Especially after yesterday when ads that were on my dashboard were showing up on my blog. Either that or leave Entrecard altogether.

Lola said...

I have 3 blogs that do not accept paid ads:

My http://www,thewordherderonline.com blog wishes to proudly be displayed on your list for those not accepting paid ads.

Jennifer MacNeill-Traylor said...

No accpeting the ads now either!

Jen said...

None of my blogs accepts the paid ads.

Auntie E said...

Great idea. Sometimes I find it had to tell when I just need to buy ad time. thanks.

Prpldy said...

I do not accept paid ads. Where did you get the button that says you do not accept paid ads? I would love to put that on my blog.

Kloggers/Polly said...

Debs thanks for adding me in your list - It's a great idea. It's frightening to know how few of us there are though when I'm doing my drops I often click onto a blog two or three times and it's amazing how many of them have a different ad on the widget each time that you do. I have even stopped and refreshed a blog page up to six times to see if they have paid ads before placing an advert on them!

NotAlwaysCharming said...

No paid ads for Not Always Charming!

RoxiticusDH said...

I'm not accepting paid EntreCard ads at any of my blogs, most notably

Roxiticus Desperate Housewives
(http://roxiticusdh.blogspot.com)

Roxy's Best Of...
(http://tags.roxysbestof.com)

Thanks for starting the list...

PJ said...

i don't accept paid ads

http://pjtangel.blogspot.com

Hawksdomain said...

I did accept the ads at first, because I haven't been very active on EC lately due to time restraints, but I have not accepted any more paid ads, nor will I accept any in the future.

Tina said...

The Zoo Crew does not accept paid EC ads.

RoxiticusDH said...

Thanks for adding my sites to your list, and for "advertising" (the old fashioned kind, where you get 100% of the exposure) on Roxiticus Desperate Housewives...

Roxy

Stacie's Madness said...

http://www.staciesmadness.com

no paid ads here either!

Contrariwise said...

Add me to your list. I've never accepted any paid ads ever.

MamaFlo said...

I think the number is up to 54 blogs at this time and continuing to grow. I'd like to express that I don't have any problem with Graham making money as no one should have to undertake something this size (and growing) from their own pocket. I just believe this latest change could have been handled differently. It feels like nothing but the almighty buck means anything.

Lenox Knits said...

I'm not accepting paid ads either:
http://lenoxknits.blogspot.com/
Thanks for doing this, much easier to find others to support.

Auntie E said...

I notice my other site was not listed http://ready2getfit.blogspot.com it does not accept paid adds either. thanks for putting my sites on your list:-)

EastCoastLife said...

I'm not accepting paid Entrecard ads too.

Judy said...

Thank you, my friend! I would like to be added as well!

Megan Y. said...

I took a break from Entrecard and came back...and am thoroughly confused even as to what these paid advertisements are about. Is there a way to officially opt out of the paid ad program?

And who decided this was a good idea? If I wanted ads on my blog, I'd sign up for an ad service that might be semi-profitable, I wouldn't do it through entrecard! That isn't what I joined entrecard for...

Please add my paid ads free blog to your list. Thanks!

cornyman said...

Hello, very good idea to post the blogs public which are not accepting paid ads.

Could you add

All about babies and kidsKeep up the good work!

Lisa/starbursidereus said...

Great idea! That would be me, I refuse to have those ads on my site!

I wish EC would go back to the way that it was :(

Monica Nichols said...

Hi there! I'm not sure I understand the ad thingy. I have two ads that are running (both ECers). Is this a bad thing? Should I take them off?

I don't want to mess with anyone's time and quite frankly I don't understand it. :(

Theresa Komor said...

Deb, this is a great idea, and I'll be using your list often to visit like-minded blogs. None of my blogs accept paid ads:

http://bumpypath.blogspot.com
http://eyebald.blogspot.com
http://outinthebackyard.blogspot.com.

Monica Nichols said...

Okay, I got this nicely explained to me what it means and I've officially gone "no paid ads".

Love and Light and please add me.

;) Thanks MamaFlo!

Megan Bayliss said...

Hi Deb, you can add me too please. I cannot stand all the paid ads and turned them off after about two days of use. I only advertise on blogs that have said good bye to paid ads too.

Imaginif http://www.imaginif.com.au/category/blog

MamaFlo said...

Wow! I'm overwhelmed with the number of blogs that are not taking paid ads from Entrecard. I have already used this list to purchase ads knowing that my credits are going to help the blog and to show my widget 100% of the time.
Thank you for your support!!

Sandi said...

I do not accept paid ads. I haven't really advertised it much...but I reject them all on both of my blogs.

RE Ausetkmt said...

hey mama flo
two of my sites are not accepting paid ads-

RecycledFrockery

The Snarky View said...

We are still not clear on why the paid ads are so bad?

Christopher M said...

I am starting to wonder MF, ( Mama Flo) whats the point of EC if all people do is come over and drop and leave and not even take the time to read what you wrote about.

I am just starting to get frusterated, because people come in, drop and leave, and all I get on my counter are 1 secont hits.

I mean I know I comment on your blog and you've commented on mine, but out of the 11,000 hits now since Jul of 08, its mostly drive by and leave's :(

Oh I see why they are not helpful to us so please add http://thesnarkyview.com
and http://mackyplanet.com too

Thanks Deb

Sandy said...

Thanks! How sweet you are to add me to the list, much appreciated. I like knowing who isn't accepting those paid ads. Happy to be associated with others.

Gonna save your list for my own use as well.

Sandy
leaving my url (though you've got it on the list), cause your settings don't allow name and url, only the generic google

Sandy said...

Working my way through the list, making bookmarks as I go; as I would like to drop first on our fellow no pd ad'ers, Artisticjen has a paid up; thought you'd want to check it out. Couldn't get Bullfrogs ladybugs to load. Wondering if they're having trouble on the site, perhaps it's me, but thought you might want to check as well.

Mrs Mecomber said...

That's quite a list! I've decided to cancel all ads I had one one account and never accepted them on all my other accounts.

http://newyorktraveler.net
http://freakyfrugalite.com
http://newyorkrenovator.com

I have a bunch of other blogs that don't accept paid ads, but didn't want to dump them all on you...

This is a great idea and i think I may start one, too!

Jeremy said...

I am not taking Paid ads either.

MamaFlo said...

REMEMBER - Let me know if you find a blog that is listed and has a paid ad - it's not always their fault as we are all aware of how the Paid Ads just sneak through the system.

Thank you again Friends!!

Does anyone know how I might keep paid ads from getting on my blog while we are away on our cruise? I had to stop all ads.
