New publisher program similar to Chitika has just been launched today. It’s called WidgetBucks. I had the privilege to view it pre-launch, but they were too quick to launch it. They sent out these invitations to some bloggers just before the launch, 2 and half hours to be exact.
When I viewed the email, the site was already launched.
How it looks?
Here is how it looks, I know it looks like a Chitika MiniMalls. But it looks a lot better than Chitika, because of the animation I guess.
Banner Sizes
They have the following banner formats: 468×60, 728×90, 160×600, 300×250, and one huge format which is 660×330 pixels in size.
Making money
Just like Chitika, it’s a PPC (pay-per-click) program. You will get paid for every click on the banners.
$25 Bonus on Sign-Up
When you sign up, your account will be credited with free $25. Withdrawal limit is set to $50. So that means if you make another $25, you will be able to withdraw your first payment.
Will it work?
I think it will work depending on the niche of the website. I am sure it will work great on eShop sites, especially in Digital Camera, Hardware, Game Console related sites.
Will I use it?
This type of programs do not perform well on this blog. So I don’t think I will be using it on this blog, maybe I will try it on my other sites.



I signed up, lets see how it does!

WidgetBucks says it’s okay to display with Google ads.
Rabin, maybe blogspot is giving error? Which link request you are talking about, please email me again.
I hope they’ll add more widget size, I want ones that fit with my blog.
I’m trying the program, the ads seem nice but still there’s a lot to be done.

WB is great..i got $1.53 for 5 clicks
Jeketb, glad that WB is working out great for you.
WidgetBucks is great but I’m still making more with Chitika! Over the last year I compiled some statistics of my earnings and I earned four times more with Chitika. For those of you considering Chitika – try it! You can check out this Chitika review to view some screenshots.
