For what it's worth, I think EGRT is different from the E-flower companies because the main focus of someone going to their site is to send a free greeting card to a friend. While they are there, of course, EGRT can show them some banner ads and make their money. I don't know if they can make enough from banner ads and the occasional merchandise item that they sell to actually be profitable, but at least there's a lot better chance that people will go to that site since they can send cards for free than there would be that they would go to an E-flower site where as far as I know, everything costs money to send, a ton of money in the case of flowers.

JMHO as I do not own EGRT.
