    Their PPC is good, comparable to AdSense, but in terms of CTR, it's no good. I get 0 click with 1500 impressions yesterday. Took it off already.

    Sounds promising. My adsense figures are starting to go low anyway. What is going on with adsense anyway?

    Is it more for product-oriented sites or can niche sites that don't lend themselves to ipods or digital cameras work it well? As for the $25 bonus, a person can only collect when they hit the payout level, so there probably will be a lot of publishers who won't cash it.

    I'm not sure how it would go on a niche site. I've seen a few ads for xboxs, playstations, tvs, ipods,cameras. Lots of electronics sort of stuff. I guess the only to know if it'll work for you is to give it a try.

    isnt it too early to ask this. People are just starting with it. I dont see any big publisher using this so its gonna take some time till someone hits the payment threshold.

    i am using it and see CTR is quite high always 0.45$, how can they pay with that high CTR? I suspect this but still testing to see how, if scam, no use anymore

    I also started using that as the company looks legit.

    This is what whois says:
    Registrant:
    Mpire Corp
    2828 Eastlake Ave East
    Suite 230
    Seattle, Washington 98102
    United States

    When I searched in Google for "company information Mpire Corp", the links shows that this is some established company.

    Whether it will pay or not is still to be seen, but I am hopeful. Lets see.

    it may seem too good to be true but trust me..there's no replacement for Adsense yet..Googles rules!

    Well..I did get my first warning from widgetbucks today
    Thank you for joining WidgetBucks - the fastest growing ad network on the web!:(

    We have noticed an unusually high click rate on your widget account. Although a high "clicks-to-impressions" ratio is desirable, the ratios for your widgets (among other indicators) seem to be abnormally high, which has triggered our detection systems. We're hoping that this is due to users who are responding very well to the widgets on your site, but we also wanted you to be aware that fraudulent activity is explicitly forbidden in the Terms and Conditions of your account. Actual revenue earned is subject to an audit of lead click activity. Any fraudulent activity is subject to account suspension and possible further action.

    If you feel that there is an error in reporting, please let us know at help@widgetbucks.com. Thanks again for using WidgetBucks.
