WidgetBucks is looking like a decent adsense replacement

Its much better than adsense for me

see WB on TIME

I just added it to my site, got 153 impressions and no clicks. Interesting idea though, I hope they add more categories.

How's your luck with the page-scanning option instead of a preset category? I put it as a test on some music album pages; once it came up with cat litterboxes and stuff, but once it came up with iPods. 1 for 2!

 

cool, i think to start use WidgetBucks

 

well have joint WB for about 4 days, and already get $10, better than adsense do to my site

 

So.. everyone getting around 0.15 ~ 0.30 CPM?

 

I just had like 70% of my account's earnings removed for no reason, needless to say I'm going back to adsense.

 

Over 1000 impressions, still not a single click (site in signature).

 

hmm... I am still looking at this one from the outside. But I will keep this post in mind when I want to check for progress of the program.

 

Blogo, your arithmetic is not correct, they have over 5,000 publishers signed up in less than 3 weeks and, as for the $25 bonus, that would be over $125K, let's keep our fingers crossed and our eyes and brains alert!

 

that is quite humorous, then it would become "GOOGLE BUCKS" GB LOL

 

They crossed 5000 publisher figure in their first week of launch. I am sure they must be around 15 to 20 K publishers.

 

But how many are active ? a lot are dropping out - dropping just as quick as they're joining, who knows how many are also banned from WB.

Either way it means they've generated FREE conversions and sales.

 

same here, they just half my daily earnings once they verify them, its starting to piss me off however it still pays more than adsense.

 

Hope you all read this thread here http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=529800 .
I am serious thinking of stop using them after reading it.

 

Yeah but both times he was banned for for legitimate reasons... the first time invalid clicks - ok so he gets back in, the second time he uses widgets on a non-english site - that's been a rule for a long time "No non english sites" all he had to do was inform them of this, go through the approval system for a non-english site and he'd be fine.

Oh and also my earnings have been good, the CPC is only dropping when I get a large amount of clicks, that's fair enough I suppose, some of my lower CTR are increasing so there's a pattern there.

 

I'm still finding them to be ok for my sites. I'll be sticking with them.

 

Treating me good aswell, had them active for 9 or 10 days and no dramas yet. Will be here until I am booted or any serious issues appear.

 

They better pay up! I'll be really pissed if i don't recieve the payment.

I made $32 in 5 days which is Ok but i can make more with adsense.
Trying widgetbucks though.

 

I keep hearing bad things, guess the only way to know is try myself.

 

Yeah, that's right - if you don't try you'll never know!
