    As title suggets is WidgetBucks good alternative for adsense banned site. Does it pay on time. I see many posts here on DP all 5-8 months old on widgetbucks that its a bad program. What's the latest update about this site. Is it better now, can we trust and place ads on our sites? Awaiting your comments.

    The best is still Adsense, but if you are banned from Adsense, I think WidgetBucks is an alternative, though I do not really like the looks of the banners. They had quite a few complaints on the forum initially but looked to have stabilized.

    Widgetbucks is an alternative but it is probably the worst alternative, not to mention there are quite a few people reporting it as a scam. I served up over 300K impressions and never made a single $50 payout. I easily clear 20x that amount using Adsense with the same amount of impressions.

    If you're looking for a true atlernative that's PPC, you're going to have to bite the bullet and use Adbrite or Bidvertiser.

    Didn't have to bump a thread from July to tell us that one .... widgetsux .... it did start alright though - for the first 2 weeks. Now it's paying about 10% of what Google Adsense does.
