WidgetBucks Outperforms Chitika & Adsense

I’m not making it up. Darren, and a bunch of his commenters, say it loud and clear. Bold emphasis is mine.

I’ve been running it in a ’split test’ with Chitika ads in one position (ie 50% of the time I display a Chitika ad unit and 50% a WidgetBucks unit) and to this point the WidgetBucks ad is earning more on a CPM basis than the Chitika unit (it’s still early days on that test though). The CTR is higher on the WidgetBucks ad but the click value is higher on the Chitika ads.

I’ve also done split tests with AdSense and found that WidgetBucks out performed them also.

As a result of all this – I’m earning more with WidgetBucks than I would have with ads in the same positions as with either Chitika and AdSense (and considering that they are my two biggest earners that’s pretty good).

Wow, that’s amazing to hear and great news for my friends at Mpire. Congrats guys! More about high performance over at my buddy Zac’s super affiliate blog.

  • I completely agree.

    I've been using it since the beginning of this month and its outperforming AdSense by a long long way.

    It's working wonders for one of my websites :-)

    But it does suffer from slow load times and that hidden link!!
  • Hidden link?

    Ack - the code didn't show up. Let's try that again, replacing brackets with parentheses, and other modifications to prevent re-formatting:

    (div id="container_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" class="wbtw160x600")(a href="h-t-t-p://www,widgetbucks,com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow")WidgetBucks - Trend Watch - WidgetBucks.com(/a)(/div)

    Blew it again - the original WidgetBucks code has no rel="nofollow" in the actual link - copied that from a website that included it in an attempt to "fix" the problem.

    In response to publisher comments, WidgetBucks removed this backlink today. Good for them!
  • Widgetbucks performs better than anything similar I have tried. I plan on sticking with it. Plus, having traffic on the lower end on the scale, they even allowed me to sign up.
