WidgetBucks is looking like a decent adsense replacement

Yeah Mule would be funny aswell - harsh but funny.

Yup I got a little greedy I have to admit, I was thinking wow "If I can just place a large widget above my article, a tower to the right and a banner on the bottom, I'd have to get clicks".

On further review I can see - Large (now) 1090, Tower 980, Footer 870 impressions and these are all on same page, so basically the larger one's loading first and the other two are loading next, the small majority are leaving before the next two load completely.

So now I am doing a shuffle and changing the layout in attempt to distract visitors long enough for the widgets to load ( I need a big set of boobies for them to look at while page loads ).

Trial and error I guess,

 

Its not doing as well for me...just my opinion..

 

Not working for me either.
400 impressions 1 click 34 cents.
Moreover the widget is slow to death.
Dropped.

 

I took a look at my stats for the DVD widgetbucks 728x90 ad I have. 9 clicks, every single one is 10 cents. I wonder if each category is pre-set to a certain CPC??!! I should try putting up a different category and see if that new category gets the same CPC.

 

It seems widget bucks working less and less for more and more people.. I am thinking why...

 

Probably more low-quality sites have joined, so CPC has dropped.

 

Anyone seen any return on referral people?

Any figures or stats yet?

Have signed up 30 people so far :0)

 

Yes they are a set price - my current campaign with Entertainment systems is paying 41cents a click each time.

But yup gotta use strategic placements to ensure widgets load before visitors leave (still frustratingly slow to load).

 

WidgetBucks is awesome.

I suggest you all sign up.

Link is in my signature!!

I reckon I see 100 of these sig links, getting pretty sick of them.

Woot first $10 made (in a day) through WB - shhhhh it cost me about the same in ad's .

 

Not yet. They will show up in the first week of November. So we have to wait for that. Congrats for 30 referrals.

 

I dropped it after about 3 weeks. no profit, and slows down the site. the media search crawler was not targetting ads to my site effectively either.

It appeared promising but went quickly down hill.

Give these people some time...we NEED a competitor or compliment to adsense..or monetization will always be in the hands of one all controlling giant

 

Another thingie to destroy your site's design... will wait till they pay the first round. All those widgets.. almost none survives.

 

I can't tell you what is in the control panel because I haven't signed up with them. I haven't signed up because I tend to read the Terms of Service before signing up and according to their terms page non-us publishers have to submit US government forms via snail mail to them before we get paid. I live in Pakistan and no way am I submitting a US govt. form to them via snail mail. Maybe if they did things adsense style I might sign up.

 

did someone got paid ?

 

No... No one can get paid before December...

 

i also join this program and i like it

 

I hope they are a good legit company. I am starting to trust them for some reason.

 

Im Trying it out, but im definatly sure someone on dp made this website.

I doubt they will pay all publishers.

and also they will make silly excuses not to pay by banning most of them for invalid clicks.
