WidgetBucks

January 4th, 2008 Posted in Making Money

WidgetBucks is a pay-per click flash widget that displays products, it analysis the content of your post and selects the proper products to display. As a signup bonus, WidgetBucks gives you $25 in your account. Minimum payout is $50. I have been using widget bucks for the past few months on Ad-addict and on the sidebar of my tutorial/art site. I though I would give them a try although I have not seen many sites using them. I have read alot of mixed reviews, and they have not been up and running for to long now. The one thing I have noticed is that the impressions in the WidgetBucks control panel does not really match what I have in my stats. Also clicking is not that common and the pay out per-click is only around $0..21 a click which is not to bad and not to good either. The ads seem more geared towards sites that are more product related. So if you are blogging about computers or software then WidgetBucks may work better for you than if you were blogging about Marketing or something general. At around 5000 impressions and 8 clicks later on my article site I have only made around $2 for the 2 months or so along with no referrals. I may keep it up for another month just to see how it goes and maybe write another review. If you are using WidgetBucks and have had good luck or bad leave a comment and let me know. I do think they have a good idea, but it seems to only be geared to work more with product related sites. Sign Up for Widget Bucks
