Widgetbucks has been around for quite some time and I just signed up for this program a few days ago. Widgetbucks is akin to Chitika eMinimalls with interactive advertisements, flashes ads one after another. Widget comes in different sizes and it can be customized to the color you like. Basically there are 15 categories with subcategories for you to choose from. If you have specific niche you can select the suitable category to fit into your blog or else you may choose to run the ads in the contextual mode (MerchSense).
How to make money?
You will be paid on cost per click (CPC) basis. From what I've learnt, the CPC of each click will be the same for one category but differs from one category to another, ranges from $0.10 to $0.40+.
How you will be paid?
You will be entitled for payment after you reach $50 and you can choose whether to be paid via Paypal or check. You will need half the effort to reach this value as you will be given instant $25 bonus on sign-up. The affiliate program also offers lucrative bonus; you can earn a 10 percent referral fee based on the commissions earned by the people they refer. Affiliates receive this 10 percent for the full 12 months after the new member joins.
My personal opinion
- I like the range of colors and how it switches from one product to another.
- The report is updated regularly, pretty much the same as Adsense.
- The load is not fast, it can take from 1 - 3 seconds and sometimes more (I guess partly due to my connection)
- The earning is pretty good :)

aku rasa satu kelemahan widgetbucks yang sebabkan kita bleh dpt kurang income. loading time dia mmg tak masuk langsung..dah la ambik masa, pastuh kita kena tgk widget tuh baru dia start loading..
cara yg aku pakai, letak widget nih btol2 kat atas..jadi sambil blog loading dia pn dah abis loading..jadi kebarangkalian pelawat nak klik pun boleh kata tinggi gk..
