You’re right. But it’s a special case. If you want to send B2B ecards:
FIRST reason is what you be able to pay for it.
Second reason, your partner or client will be surprised for you attention.

Luckily, I never found a good e-cards website that was free. I never liked those and when people wold send me one, they would never send it correctly, and i would only get letters and numbers instead of a smart al-lick e-card.

You forgot a fairly obvious option in your list of alternatives. Send a simple e-mail directly to the person. No need to monkey around with cutesy graphics and all that nonsense. Just send a simple textual greeting—a lettre—like people have been doing for thousands of years. ☺

The irony is that the sponsors of this page, as I view it, are eCard Vault and SpiritClips, both encouraging me to send Christmas eCards! :)

Good suggestions, though. Personalized is always the best.

Sadly I have to agree. For me, an ultra paranoid security weenie, if it starts with “Someone sent you…..” I think, no, bogus because a very important thing is who it’s from, if they were for real they’d ask the person who sent it for their name and tell me. Then there’s the URL, which I always check. If the sender is someone I know and there’s hallmark in the tld, I might click it. Otherwise, even if the sender is someone I know, it still could be a bogie site that duped someone I know into giving them my email. It might even be a real ecard that’s busily installing bots in my puter while it plays a cheesy animation.
