    Actually i've also seen widgetbucks sponsered links at google.com
    Don't know why google accepted WB in their sponsored listings.

    Maybe they're paying a lot that's why!!:p
    Or maybe Google want's a fair deal with each and every advertiser!

    It's a google bot that gives keyword suggestions for you based on previous search volume

    if you look at the screen shot.
    Paid ad is from widgetbucks

    But in the search results the the first result is not from them.

    well, they just launched a while ago, do you expect them to be? :p

    also, a lot of the other sites have relatively high pr/userbases

    I was reffering to "wetbacks" as a suggestion for "widgetbucks" they don't even seem close in my opinion, but I was NOT talking about the fact that widgetbucks advertises with google...

    LOL, I caught that the minute I saw it. I think a lot of people here on DigitalPoint are in a rush to get somewhere (like a reputation so they can make offers to rip people off) and don't pay much attention to the actual posts.

    Good catch bostonunknown.

    oh, btw, if you're a Sox or Pats fan, congrats man..... :D Think it's time for me to change the ole avatar...

    umm,you would think so. :rolleyes:
    i don't know about you,but at most it takes me a couple days to get indexed.

    my guess is that google deindexed them,because of forcing people to have a backlink.

    anyway,back on topic...
    i did notice wetbacks earlier and thought it was odd.after time passes it may go away.

    Wow. Hilarious how people didn't understand that whole wetbacks thing and posted random stuff (anyone can advertise on Google if you're willing to pay btw...)

    Anyways, yeah I would expect WidgetBucks to be indexed in Google. If I can get my sides indexed in 1-3 days, I'd expect them to be able to do the same if they are opening up an online advertising business!

    And I do think there might be a problem with them... do a google search for widgetbucks.com... they don't come up!

    I am a SOX and Pats fan, what a GREAT weekend for us over here. Yes, it was funny for people to miss the point. I still think it is QUITE a stretch to have suggested "wetbacks," as a coincidence, I mean come on, calling your newest competition Illegal Immigrants in a derogatory manner?

    EDIT: it is also a bit of a concern for me that they are not indexed/banned/whatever reason they are not on google. I hope they can be trusted, they've been added to my earnings spreadsheet! haha
