Although a site that provides an electronic card service has conventionally been used, it is not used for the purpose of an event.

1 is a flowchart illustrating a preferred embodiment of an event proceeding method using an electronic card service according to the present invention.

In detail, referring to FIG. 1, a user first accesses a card event introduction page after accessing a home page or directly accesses a card event introduction page through a link or an advertisement of another site (step 100). The web page of the site providing the electronic card service to which the present invention is applied includes a home page, a card event introduction page, a card creation page, and a card page showing a completed card. In general, a user accesses a home page and visits a desired page by looking at the contents described on the home page.

Among the event introduction pages related to the event event, in particular, when accessing the card event introduction page, the user is notified that the user enters the event at the same time as sending the card (step 102).

If "Preview" is selected, the user can check the decorated card, and after confirmation can be modified according to the user's needs (step 118). Next, the process proceeds to step 114 again.

In step 114, if "send card" is selected, the user's input is complete and generates a unique card page for the card created in the server (step 120). When the user's input is completed, the event is automatically submitted. Here, the card page includes a card finally confirmed by the user, and includes a link to a homepage of a site that provides an electronic card service so that the card recipient can write a reply.

In addition, since the customer who visited for the card verification needs to register again to participate in the card event after the card verification, membership can be expected to increase.

In addition, in the event of the event winner drawing later, not only the person who entered the event, that is, the person who sent the card, but also the person who received the card is simultaneously selected as a winner. As a result, the card recipient is also promoted to promote the site and secure membership.

On the other hand, the embodiments of the present invention described above can be written as a program that can be executed on a computer. And it can be implemented in a general-purpose digital computer to run the program from a medium used in the computer. The media includes storage media such as magnetic storage media (e.g. ROM, floppy disks, hard disks, etc.), optical reading media (e.g. CD-ROM, DVD, etc.) and carrier waves (e.g., transmitted over the Internet). .
