Widgetbucks international CPM ADS

Widgetbucks launched it's new International CPM(Cost Per Impression) ADS on December 11,2007. These ads will be shown in countries other than US/CANADA and earning will be depend on the number of impressions.

This announcement was made so that publishers having viewers from other countries can also monetize their website.
Earlier Widgetbucks announced that they will not be including clicks sites other than US/CANADA
This announcement led to the decrease in popularity of this ad program because many of the publishers belonged to other countries.


To activate CPM ADS publishers need to replace existing code with new WidgetBucks ad code on their sites. To update your widget(s), simply click "Copy HTML" within the "Customize Your Widget" page for that widget and re-paste/replace the code block into your site. The updated code -- which has been greatly simplified and reduced in length -- can also be replaced directly into the Blogger, TypePad or WordPress blogging platforms.


These ads have different price per Impression in different countries.
As it is in its initial phase so the price per thoushand impressions is not very high but i suspect it will increase in the days to come.

According to the Widgetbucks blog in their latest post:


If you are in the US/Canada, then you will see the widget. Only site visitors outside of the US/Canada will see a CPM ad instead of the widget. Early in the rollout, we noticed a number of people asking about not seeing CPM ads internationally, but using a proxy server on our side, we have not been able to replicate this. In fact, on our blog threads, other commenters have indicated they can actually see the ads a publisher is indicating they can't see on their own sites. We continue to look into it and will monitor comments on this to see if it is persisting.


And they also mentioned about price of the CPM Ads


Rates are definitely varying by country (and see the question below on non- or low-paying regions). Most countries are ranging between $0.25 and $0.80 CPM, depending on ad size. In general, the 468x60, 728x90, and 160x600 ad sizes yield higher than the 300x250, and much more than 120x600 or 250x250.



At this moment I am getting a CPM 0.10$ per not so good

 

10 cents CPM - that's ten times more than I'm getting!
I'm beginning to think that the cost of displaying such horrendous emoticon type ads far outweighs the earnings from them.

 

I am glad I didn't update my sites then.

 

i got 0.06 $ for 800 impressions
so approx 0.08$ per thousand impressions

 

that's a huge drop then, previously I was receiving $6-$12 ecpm - before everything got turned upside down.

 

I suppose they are increasing their CPM rates and they are convincing other ad networks to join in

 

Leave WidgetBucks before it's too late

 

i will leave widgetbucks as soon as i cross $50 after this dec. i guess.

 

I agreed with you....better hurry run....lol....

 

I suppose we should wait not hurry things
because
widgetbucks should have announced a little later so that they could provide better solutions for CPM ads
Bt still after some time the ads will become better

 

Dec 18-th already, no payments still ...

 

dont waste time waiting...go for others...

 

Widgetbucks announced their new widgetbucks but didn't tell anything about their CPM ads

I also think that after i get 50$ i will leave widgetbucks
coz it aint getting better and they are least concerned

 

I think it's the opposite, they are very concerned, I believe if they keep going down hill - they'll eventually go broke and they know it. I am just happy I survived the first rush when CPC was nice and high, I am eagerly waiting my november (period) payment also.

 

That's great u are getting paid
u are earning welll from widgetbucks but my earnings are low

 

Most of my international traffic is from UK, Brazil, etc and I get next to nothing on the 300*250 unit.
They should really determine CPM by the CTR, rather than Ad size.

 

CPM is based on bidding and on flat rates and not on cTR

 

so got anymore people would like to comments ?? good or bad ??
come share your experience in WD

 

About 10 cents CPM on international for me. But hi, the US traffic is really cashing in, so I won't complain.

 

Atleast one person earning something out of widgetbucks
for us it sucks
