Default Has anyone here used widgetbucks ?

I am new to this program.They pay for showing their widgets on your site.You get paid when someone clicks on the widgets and the traffic has to be from US , but you also get paid for CPM when it's international traffic. The widgets are loading pretty satisfactorily , but tracking has been a little delayed and I would like to hear from someone who has tried them out.

I thought about trying them but for some reason their program doesn't make any sense. How many people are going to click through a widget without being driven to do so?

I don't see how any money is made from click throughs that never happen.

I do have a widget on my blog but it is free. I think this is a pretty good idea compared to the free one I have. I'll try it out.

I have been getting a very high click through rate on a few widgets , especially , for one of my blogs.The good thing is that I could customize the widget and choose my niche , one that is relevant to the content of my blog. It's not much different from an adsense banner ad appearing on the blog , just that the CTR seems to be higher for this one and there is no limit to the number of widgets I can show on a page , but obviously I don't use too many because that will put off the traffic.There is a 30 day wait period before the payment comes through .So we will see how it goes.

I haven't heard of this but it sounds interesting. How does this really works? Have you tried it and actually paid you? Form the description, it sound to me just like the google adsense. Are they going to pay you depending on the clicks made?

Widgets are common now among the users. I haven't known you can show some widgets and get paid doing so. This could be a great opportunity to earn online some extra income

Yes, The CTR seems to be really higher here and in adsense, the PTR seems to get decreased day by day . I would recommend people to use it (not as main income but extra income though )

I've never heard of these before. Are the widgets similar to the ads shown on Adsense? Or are they more like mini-banners or something?

I’ve been hearing a lot of bad things from them. Based on what I heard, they are only paying for those traffics that come from US countries. Some are even saying that they aren’t paying at all.
