A New Advertising Option for Your Blog Website

WidgetBucks Giving You $25 to Register

WidgetBucks is a shopping widget that you can place on your website or blog. You earn money every time someone clicks on it.

Launched through mpire’s affiliate widget program, the widgets’ content is contextually based according to your site’s content. From there, readers and site visitors can see various information regarding certain products, such as the lowest price available, and from which online retailer.

There are about 5 or so different widget sizes to choose from, and they are all fairly customizable in terms of color, to be better matched with your existing website. As with Proximic, a “grab it” option will soon be made available for its widgets, enabling visitors to take the widgets to be placed on their own site.

In order to encourage you to sign up or the WidgetBucks program, it’s offering you a $25 credit, meaning you’ll only need to earn another $25 to get your first check. The shopping widgets are a bit flashy and very much resemble an ad. I imagine that some web users could easily overlook these shopping widgets if they’re placed too far out of context on a given website.
