Is anyone using Widgetbucks? I put a 120x600 banner on mine and it makes a few bucks, but not like the big G does. Their code implementation is very simple, but it seems like they have updates to their code like every two weeks or so that makes it hard to keep up with them at times.

Widgetbucks.com is a PPC service similar to other ones, only their flash ads are uniquely designed around shopping products. They are pretty easy to join. Although I heard a lot of people got banned, as did a lot of people got paid. I haven't been banned, but I haven't gotten to the payment threshold yet.

I've been using Widgetbucks. I think they're really good. I've been averaging $0.38 per click. The only thing I dislike is the ad style - they are shopping ads instead of real contextual advertisements. I'm switching to Clicksor soon.

I've never tried widgetbucks for some reason..

I've got plenty of feedback from the survey I conduct on forums, many of them said that they haven't been paid by widgetbucks, being ban for no reasons and they are not accepting traffics from outside US (I don't know if this true or not, it is from feedback I got).

So, I made a decision better not join them

the thing that annoys me about widgetbucks is that they will accept your website without checking, they only check when you reach the end of the month. so if your website doesnt have enough content and you get $$$$ worth of clicks they'll easily suspend your account and keep YOUR money

My mate used to use Widgetbucks and he liked it because of the money.. Just he did not like ad style.

I have been paid by widgetbucks and i find them all fine in terms of their ads as well as their cost per click!Although,these days they have updated their CPC rates for US/Canada traffic only..but still international members can earn via CPM from their international traffic and i think this update shows that they want to stay in the business and not just get ruined by "free" clicks without any purchase as their CPC was as high as 1.27$.

Their stats were pretty reliable up until this week. I'm not sure if it's the holiday and they are short staffed or whether they actually hand check each click or what. CPM has been showing up as 0 even though there are impressions and CPC has only half the impressions even though our impression count went way up (for mostly US and Canadian traffic). Perhaps they'll get it all worked out over the holiday. Also I noticed that their ad in Opera reads as $N instead of a dollar amount. Not sure why.
