WidgetBucks - A Giant Step

Recently WidgetBucks has been smacked left right and center by parts of the webmaster community due to their buggy start, high expectations and bold claims.

I posted my doubts on WidgetBucks a month ago but reserved my judgement.

Yesterday, they finally posted the October 07 earnings for webmasters to see which I thought was a great step in the right direction.

However, it was the development today which makes me feel the Internet Marketer’s new wonderboy has finally grown of age - They are now posting real time referral earnings.

WidgetBucks

What this means to me is that they are confident enough of their reporting to give out this information. More importantly, it is information that was not expected of them and most webmasters would have been happy just to see one row for the total referral earnings for the day.

One comment i would like to make is the lack of ability to organize the earnings. A lot of my accounts are dead and an ordered by option or hiding the accounts that show no earnings would be nice.

WidgetBucks isn’t appropriate for all sites but if you want to give it a try, please add to my growing list of Referral accounts and
Sign-up here.

For research purposes only, of course :P

Well, I am a believer in ad blending and WidgetBucks ads although nice looking, well they look like ads.

Actually, the reason why I do not have them on my main sites and placements is because they are too fancy.

The moving ads I feel detracts my visitors from my content and also the ads have quite slow loading times so isnt really suited to above the fold placement.
