Widget Bucks

Diana13 · 10-05-2007, 03:08 AM

If you want to earn more money with your blog, just try WidgetBucks. WidgetBucks is a new e-commerce advertising network that helps bloggers and site owners earn three to four times more money compared to traditional ad networks.

I've added Widget Bucks yesterday, I have some clicks (I haven't much traffic, my blog is only 3 weeks old), but no revenue.
I like to share your opinion about Widget Bucks. Is anybody else trying this?

Hmm i will try to check it out a little bit more.

Every company is going to have a bad review.. especially if people are using them. There's gotta be some good reviews too. I don't know anything about them.. but it seems kinda one sided to just jump right into one bad review and immediately think they must be terrible.

There would have to be more "valuable" information for publishers in their web site to be "seriously considered".

Right now, it's an early adopter's thingy that'll eventually be found to "walk the talk"... or not.

If anybody feels good about risking their precious ad zones to these newcomers, fine — tell us all how it goes ; )

well they add rev but i want to know do they pay! if it stays at 5$ a day i would be happy with the extra few $ it brings in.

I wish they had a few more categories though. Has anyone made any decent cash from this system yet?

guinanie · 10-11-2007, 08:43 AM

Thanks for the links of WidgetBucks and I will try it to my blog.

scottdizzle · 10-11-2007, 01:36 PM

From the screenshot it looks pretty nice.. I like it.. but Sama3l I hope they don't get upset for you posting a picture like that on a public forum! It doesn't matter to me but I tried to do that with Adsense once and I got yelled at.. thought about it.. and I realize why now.

theawristocrat · 10-11-2007, 02:08 PM

is adsense and widgetbucks allowed in the same page?

thanks

thanks

it says so in the TOS for wigetbucks but if adsense allow it i am not sure

The last time I checked the Google Adsense TOS it was updated and they changed their policy saying you COULD have other ad sources on your pages. They did that in an effort to please the upset webmasters.. but you'll probably want to check their TOS again cause they change it a lot.

The only positive reviews I've seen of Widget Bucks is from people trying to essentially 'spam' their affiliate link. This early in the game it's hard to tell the legit good reviews from the fanboys looking to make a quick buck from affiliate signups.

Beware

Yes you can have adsense and widget bucks on the same page. At the same time you should not take anyones advice on this and look ad adsense TOS.

I have been using widgetbucks for a week now and am happy with the results. My blogs are product specific so having visual adds about cell phones on a cell phone blog just makes sense. If you blog is not product specific you may run into ctr issues. The pay per click I am getting is double what adsense was giveing me. Again everyones results will vary and 1 week of testing is hardly an endorsment. I am happy with the program so far. I did also learn how to place the widget bucks on a forum. There might be an easier way but I cam across this article on widgetbucksreview.com. the site has little conversation as of yet but it talks about widget bucks and I did find the info helpful.
