The Entrecard Coupons Winners are...

The Entrecard Coupons Winners are...

The winners of my Entrecard Coupons are:

Widgets Lab did register to Wavumi in order to get the Entrecard coupon, thus I did send him 10 credits. On the other hand, Pam Hoffman is an early adopter of the Wavumi widget - I thank her for that - and did then receive 20 credits! I have not seen her on the Entrecard "Campaign" page so far, but I am sure she will join soon - at least, I will send her a reminder ;-)

You should have noticed that this "contest" was not very popular. I was ready to give away 150 credits, and at the end, I have given 30 credits - I have already used the remaining 120 credits for advertisement ;-) Maybe the number of credits was not sufficient, I think next time I will target one single winner with a prize of 100 credits at least - lesson learned ;-)

Free Entrecard Credits for Wavumi Members

I have been addicted to Entrecard.com these last days, I have played a lot with it. I have even sent some feedback to the development team. One of them was about 3rd party cookie, it seems they have the same problem that I encountered at the beginning of the development of Wavumi, see my (old) post How to enable (unblocked) your 3rd party cookie from April 2007. This feedback was appreciated: Wavumi is mentioned a the post Letting your users help you help them written by the guy developing Entrecard.com, and I received an Entrecard coupon for 50 credits.

I have decided to give you these credits as a welcome gift in the Wavumi Community ;-) I will give 10 credits to the first 5 new members. The procedure is the following:

  1. You register to Wavumi by clicking here.
  2. You install the Wavumi widget on your blog/site.
  3. You send me an e-mail at wavumi@gmail.com with the URL of your blog/site.
  4. I will send you back an Entrecard coupon for 10 credits.

And you know what!? I hate these promotions trying to recruit new customers, without paying attention to the existing customers! Therefore, if you are an old Wavumi member, you can also send me an e-mail - after re-installing the Wavumi widget if necessary ;-) - and you will get 20 credits from my account. I will give away 100 credits I have earned (my addiction was not for nothing).

Ladies and gentlemen, I will now go to check my inbox...

BlogRush and Entrecard Videos

From the beginning of the development of the Wavumi project, I was thinking about promoting it by creating a marketing video. But, I am still searching where to start... On the other hand, I have found two videos I like a lot: the presentation video of BlogRush, as well as the one of Entrecard. The video I would like to create would not be very different from these ones!

If you can point me to the right direction in order to create such a high quality marketing video, please do not hesitate to contact me ;-)

New Design for Wavumi (2nd)

Following the nice comment from ~ Swann on my previous post, I have re-started working on the new design of the Wavumi web site.

I would like to show you a first mock-up in order to get early feedback. Many thanks in advance for your comments. So, here is the new design:

As a reminder, the current design is:

As I have already explained it in my previous post, I am definitively not a designer! Thus, even if it is in line with my philosophy, I have "copied" this design from BlogRush. I have been quite impressed by its success, so I found a good idea to get some "inspiration" from it ;-)
