The Path to the Pegasus Letter is the winner of my Entrecard Contest I run in May. As a price, there was 1000 EC, 125×125 banner spot on my blog for 1 month and blog review. Credits and banner spot are already delivered, now it is time for a review.

What it is about?

If you are a new visitor to The Path to the Pegasus Letter, you might be confused for a while by not knowing the subject of the blog. I didn’t find any about page and there is no simple tagline explaining what this blog is about. Anyway, when you start reading any of the posts for a while, you will get sure this blog concerns investing, finances and money – few of my favorite topics.

User Experience

The blog has two sidebars, left and right, mostly filled with ads. Personally, I prefer sidebars only on the right side, but it is a matter of taste. The most useful things there are Blog Archives and, if you are an Entrecard user, Entrecard plugin.

What I definitely like is a big, clear space for main content – posts, especially a lot of posts right there on The Path to the Pegasus Letter are long. There are no ads within posts which is another advantage concerning posts reading.

On the other side I really miss an easy access to labels and some kind of ’top post’ or ‘best of’ page. These things are usually the first pages I visit on any new blog I read and can really help to find out if the content is interesting for me.

Content is King

Here is exactly how this blog snuck into my RSS reader. A quality content presented in an interesting style. Ok, maybe typography is not exactly the way I like it, but this paragraph is not about that. I mean a writing style. I really do enjoy reading such posts, especially when they provide value. And posts on The Path to the Pegasus Letter definitely do this job. Maybe I can’t always agree in 100% with author’s opinion, but this only stimulates me to deeper my knowledge about finances and stock market and it also provides an additional perspective to the topic.

Summary

If you are interested in stock market and finances, you should give it a try. Of course, not everybody would find this blog interesting and useful, but somehow it made a way to my group of investing blogs I read regularly. Maybe The Path to the Pegasus Letter will also fit to you. Enjoy.

Yesterday Entrecard was down due to an electrical fire at the data center housing Entrecard’s servers. I hope Entrecard is not your only source of blog traffic. As you can see, diversification is a great technique concerning not only investing but also blogging.

Congratulations to winner of my contest - The Path to the Pegasus Letter. 1000 EC is already sent and banner will be displayed for next 31 days. The review of blog I will write during weekend.

I would like to thank you to all participants. Stay tuned, I will run another contest soon.

I like participating in different contests, especially those on-line. Even if the contest is small and the prizes are only symbolic, I find a lot of fun in this. It is always exciting to wait for the results and it is really amazing feeling when you win. Such a small taste of success.

Today, I decided to run my own, tiny contest. As a most traffic I get on my blog is coming from Entrecard, this content is dedicated for users of this network.

The rules are simple. On 1st June, I will check statistics on Entrecard and a top dropper would be a winner.

What are the prizes?

• 1000 EC,
• review of your blog,
• 1 month banner spot 125 x 125 on my blog.

If there would be more than one Entrecard dropper with the highest result, I will select the winner at random.

Keep dropping and good luck.
