    For some yes, for some no.

    I am using their referral system. So if they will pay, their referral system is surely better than adsense.

    I am having my best day so far :

    39 clicks for $7.59 .

    I have tried out some targetted traffic to iPods and Consoles, click through rates are pretty high - 34 clicks for 405 impressions is my best for consoles (today) - they don't pay as much as Entertainment systems or iPods but consoles are getting good results.

    Yeah I am slowly learning the tricks - same principal as similar ad's I guess :

    In a Good Spot that's clear to the eye.
    Not below the fold like a few have said.
    Keep pages simple to increase loading speed.
    Only have 2 (widgets) on a page.
    Update to new code - it is faster.
    Blends well with adsense.

    My best are :
    Merchsense -
    3249 impres' - 180 clicks - 5.52% (CTR) - 24cents PPC - $42.50

    Yeah that is similar to what I have done but the CTR still seems lower to me. I wish they have even more categories then they did and the keywords of my site could match them directly.

    They needn't be matched directly to your keywords.
    All people need for instance popular product such as digital camera.

    Beauty in widget is because these product aren't that keyword specific instead of adsense.

    But widget product are much more popular so i am getting 10% ctr from only
    one widget that aren't many to do with content of my site.

    But its popular so you can get high ctr.

    Fell free to join through my link.:)

    My only winge thus far is the fluctuating CPC, my advice is : don't go budgeting your spending amount and Return On Investment until you have the the black figures - seems the higher the CTR the lower the CPC will drop.

    My merchsense is still hoverring around $10 cpm.

    I joined under you few days back. I got 2 referrals also. I noticed that I got 45 cents form a click. Now I have to try for better traffic. I have a 'good hope' about WidgetBucks.

    You should get it in February when I first joined it took a few months to get paid but I believe they changed it now to ever month. Read the FAQ and Blog on the main site and send them an e-mail. Also, make sure you have the minimum payout.

    Do they have a customer service department because I've had their ads on my site for 5 days and its showing 0 impression.
