    they said on their blog that they signed up 5000 publishers this week alone. I am curious if they will be able to pay all of those publishers .40 per click.

    Personally, I am starting to think they have overshot and I can;t imagine them earning anything near that amount from affiliate or recommend deals with their advertisers.

    Especially as most of the referrees are not pre-sold and will have low conversion. Hope I am wrong though hehe.

    To be honest, i see this program being a scam, no offence to anyone, but they just wont be able to pay out everyone, like someone else said. They overshot it.

    To ward off the onslaught maybe they should have went to a review process? Or is there any other way they could have trickled onto the scene?

    I don't like them. I tried them out briefly on a proxy site of mine and found that the page loaded slow every time I switched pages.

    Wouldn't recommend it for proxy owners. :cool:

    Hopefully they pay out, though when something seems to good to be true... However there are lots of adsense ads that payour more then 40 cents a click so who knows, and who knows how much cash they have behind them.

    Judging by all of the delays and setbacks they have been having with the website, I wouldnt be surprised if they push back the payment as well.

    I have started testing thier system today, but my friends get more money from WidgetBucks than from AdSense.

    I'll keep you posted.

    We need payment proof anyway, not just an earning screenshot

    Anyway I post that Widgetbucks on our Fashion Forum and it looks cool enough for the layout

    I hope they pay out - I'm not getting crazy prices per click in the gaming niche, but I like the ads - if they offer half decent pay, and attractive, relevant ads that would be nice long term.

    I'm going to wait a while on this one. I signed up for an account, but the variety of ads offered weren't enough for me.

    I am very interested from this ppc program and I hope its not scam .I earn 5 x more than Adsense . On the about page is text like
    Founded in 2005, Mpire is backed by Ignition Partners and former eBay executive and Pay Pal angel investor Richard Rock
    HTML:
    and I hope that Richard Rock will see if his name is used and he has nothing to do with this program paypal also.
