One of the most rising advertising networks is WidgetBucks.

To make money you will have to place contextual ad widgets on your blog or website. Visitors will actually click on the ads and find them engaging.
They also have a very high click value.

Increasing your earnings means testing a lot of stuff. If you just place an ad on your website, let it be and hope for a high click rate and a high click value then you will surely fail.
Considering WidgetBucks has a lot of products to advertise they sort them by categories.
When you create a widget you can either choose a category yourself or let MerchSense (MerchSense is a bot that crawls your page and finds relevant products to include in your widget) find the best products suitable to your blog.

I suggest you try every category first and see which one has the highest click value. Create a lot of widgets and place them on different pages of your website (blog) and make sure you manage to place a widget for every category.

Also make sure you put descriptions for your widgets also, and maybe put in the URL where the widget is located so you can track the performance better.

Here’s how I create my Widgets

As you can see I like to fill in every text input for each widget.

What you should always write in the comments is the URL where the widget will be located and the category of products it will show. Your widgets will then appear just like in the picture above.

Writing details when creating the widget will make it much more easier to view which widget has more views, clicks and of course which one has the highest click value.

Once you settle for a category make sure you edit all the other widgets and set the right category (the highest paying one). If you had clicks, you will surely have better paying clicks now.
