Maybe some of you already heard about Widgetbucks, it's a  a new advertising shopping widget that you can place on your blog. And some ppl said the cpc is higher than adsense.



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.

Widgetbucks ads are definitely eye-catching.  I hear among webmasters that they pay better than Adsense too.  A lot of webmasters are holding out for December to see if they are going to deliver on their promises.  I've also heard that some accounts have been shut down at the $500 mark for unknown reasons.

So...it appears to be a wait and see game with Widgetbucks.  I have added them to a few pages on my site just to to test and see how they work.  No results as of yet.

I have already bookmarked it from somewhere else but it is very difficult to switch from one program to another. Although there are some programs which definitely have higher rates but if someone is getting some money from a program, it is difficult to decide.

Has this turned out good for you on forums?  I used it on a blog and it never converted to much.  Also, the ads seemed to be a little bloated and introduced some lag to the page loading and navigation.

I used them briefly on blogs too but not very successfully. And I agree about the overhead on the ads,
