9 Great Sites With Free Valentine Ecards

People have traditionally given paper Valentine cards to those they admire and care about on February 14th. These days, however, the internet makes it faster, easier, and a lot more fun.

There are all sorts of sites that you can take advantage of to send free Valentine ecards to anyone you like. Everyone checks their email, sends texts and browses social media on a daily basis anyway, so why not? A digital Valentine card may not ever be a true replacement the traditional version, but it's a nice gesture nonetheless.

Of course, you don't want to send just any old Valentine card that isn't funny or heartfelt. You'll need to pick from some good ones.

Check out the list of sites below that offer some of the best choices.

Someecards

As one of the most popular e-card producers on the web, you’ll be sure to brighten someone's V-Day with a virtual card from Someecards. The graphics aren’t exactly incredible since they’re kept super simple, but that’s part of what makes them special and very identifiable on the web. If you know anyone who loves blunt and often vulgar humor, Someecards will be a sure-fire winner.

JibJab

Several years ago, it was a bit of a big trend to use JibJab, which is a fun little tool that allows you to paste photos of your face onto some dancing Christmas elves for a ridiculously entertaining and personalized video. Now, JibJab has dancing characters for the Valentine variety too. These are really fun if you want something a little different from the more basic Valentine e-cards, and there are lots of JibJab e-cards to choose from!
