Halloween Cards Have Free Ecard Alternatives

Halloween cards have free ecard alternatives such as free greeting cards, animated ecards, funny and Christian ecards at http://www.christianet.com/christianecards/.

ChristiaNet.com (http://www.christianet.com), the world's largest Christian portal with twelve million monthly page loads offers alternatives for sending traditional Halloween cards.  Halloween has become more controversial in recent years with national reports of crimes against children and evidence of bizarre ritualistic acts taking place on October 31.  Most cities have special crime prevention media campaigns during this time of year to protect innocent children from ghoulish acts and to offer safety tips for parents.  ChristiaNet's President, Bill Cooper, explains, "Violence around this holiday has increased and more people are becoming aware of the revealing facts surrounding Halloween.  Many thoughtful people simply do not want to honor this frightful holiday any longer.  We offer alternatives to the traditional "scary" greeting card with free ecards that have positive messages such as "Happy Holidays" or which celebrate the fall season."  ChristiaNet offers the cyberspace community a number of different services that are family friendly in a Christian atmosphere.
 
Electronic greeting cards are growing in popularity.  In 2007, ecards are predicted to reach nearly $80 million in sales according to the online marketing company, iMedia Connection.  And though the Internet greeting card market promises to be profitable with an electronic-savvy generation at hand, ChristiaNet offers their electronic greetings at no charge as a service to their site visitors.  "We want to make it easy for our community of visitors to share wholesome sentiments throughout the holidays with free ecards," said Cooper. "It costs absolutely nothing to send an electronic greeting through our services."

Yearly, Halloween cards emerge onto the scene in mid-September and greeting card isles are decorated with black and orange.  By this time, plans are well underway for the big fright night and for harvest celebrations.  ChristiaNet staff believe that this is the perfect time to select alternatives for Halloween cards with free ecards for the entire holiday season, saving time and money by utilizing the Internet.  "Most families now have Internet access and email," said Cooper. "It's a pleasant surprise - when at the end of the day - there is a friendly greeting waiting in your email account.  There are a million people who receive our thoughtful ecards every year, and we are happy to offer these services."  For more information, visit: http://www.christianet.com/christianecards/
