How many times have you gone to a “Free Ecard” site, registered/signed in, chosen a card, personalized it and then you see you have to pay for it.
Hello? My marketing savvy says that these sites used to be free because they wanted to attract you, have you see what other products they had available, possibly check out some ads on their site, etc. But now they make you pay to peruse their site? Well, that’s my opinion of their not-so-freee-cards.
Thanksfully, there is a site where the Ecards are still free – GotFreeCards.com. There you will find cards to cover all sorts of occassions. Plus, you can even personalize some of them with pictures and sound! Some of their ecard categories include:
- Halloween
- Thanksgiving
- Christmas
- Birthday
- Get Well
- Love
- Friendship
- Miss You
- Sorry
- Thank You
- Knock Knock
- And yes… there is more.
What other perks are there with GotFreeCards.com? Well, you don’t have to register, so you can send a card in minutes. People can view their Ecards on the go via an iPhone. You can send ecards via Twitter. And you can even download free printable cards and free printable birthday cards that you can print from home!
Since Halloween is around the corner, I was especially interested in the Halloween Ecard selection – and I think you would be too! My favorite is the dancing Skeletons Ecard! My kids love skeletons – so they just thought it was hilarious!
My favorite birthday ecard is a simple one (see image, top/left) – you have to see the end how they spell out Happy Birthday using some items that you may see when you look out the window. To check it out, visit this link: Erin’s Favorite Birthday Ecard
And don’t forget about their Free Christmas Ecards and Thanksgiving Cards for the upcoming holidays!
