Viral Marketer’s Having A Bla.St

Published by Chris | Filed under Reviews, Web 2.0 | February 24th, 2007

After reading about bla.st over at John Chow dot Com, I ran over to the bla.st website to see what all the rambling was about.

Boosting your Bla.st Card
Given that I am cheapo, I opted to go with the free card (free is cool) but the generous guys at bla.st have a promotion running where they will add value to your account simply by providing a link to their site or a review of the site, maybe thats the reason why I am writing this post…not!

First Impressions.
After spending a couple of minutes to sign up and create my image for my card. By the way Signing-up and uploading your card image is a breeze, took me only three minutes to have my account up and running. The site design is very easy to navigate and all in all its a great idea with lots of potential. Seeing that the site is relatively new my card listing is very good, infact I’m listed #1 under gadgets, but eventually my listing will drop as other people opt to pay for their cards and because I’m cheapo!
One Suggestion
As I look through the site, I thought unless you are a frequent reader of a particular site like john Chow blog, it will be difficult to know basis of the site card. Maybe the folks at bla.st should display more information about the site in the pop-up window, which opens up when you scroll over the image cards. So readers will get an idea what the site is all about. Remember I’m not complaining; just imagine when the site has thousands of cards.

Well I’m going to wait to see what traffic having my bla.st Card listed, I mean it didn’t cost me a dime. Post me a comment if you add a card so I can look it up.
