Posted by BlogMeTheMoney at 2:18 AM . Friday, April 16, 2010

Looking for a working top commentators widget for your blogspot blog? well then you have come to the right place!

I recently noticed many of my widgets in my footer that once worked were no longer working. So i had the joy and chore of looking about across the internet to find answers to make my widgets work again. Of course i never did get the originals working again but in my search i stumbled across this very customizable code that will give you a top commentors list.

The instructions are very well presented and the widget is easy to add to your blog. did i mention that you can customize it? Well i've put it off long enough i am sure you are wanting the widget now. BloggerSentral is home of the newest working top commentators widget.

Recently I found a rather cool workaround for the most popular posts widget. It started out, that i noticed my widget i was using from a very popular blogspot blogger was no longer working. I googled and looked about for other variations or widgets to show the most popular posts and was not having a lot of luck. It seems that most widgets and code that is floating about indeed, no longer works. Well i came across a working widget that you can customize and will be easily applied to your blogspot blog in a few minutes.

Bloggergeeze put together a very detailed instruction on how you can add this widget to your blog. I am very thankful that i came across his workaround for a similar widget i was using that is no longer working. Now it works again! thank you.

WidgetBucks Update

Labels: Money Making Programs

For those who are using WidgetBucks to monetize their website or blog, you will be glad to know that there have been a handful of changes as of late. For those who are not yet using Widgetbucks, then perhaps learning about these changes might help convince you to give this program a second look or even a try.

WidgetBucks has recently improved its advertising system with the use of Yieldsense and they have beefed up their referral program for publishers. Both of these steps will help ensure that publishers using the WidgetBucks system will increase their earnings.

What is Yieldsense?

Yieldsense is performance advertising technology that increases the rate of return, or eCPM, on your WidgetBucks ad widgets. For existing publishers it has already been turned on for you. For those new to or yet to sign up, you will have to manually turn it on.

According to other publishers, they have had their eCPM has increase 40-50% network-wide for the beta-testing publishers. Some publishers have seen 200-300% boom in eCPM. 4 of 5 publishers are seeing a significant jump in revenue. Not a bad result from this new inovative addition to the program.

YieldSense automatically tests and retests different kinds of products, channels, ad models and other key benchmarks on websites and blogs. Ad content with the highest return is then displayed most frequently to deliver superior eCPM to WidgetBucks publishers.

The neatest thing about Yieldsense is that YieldSense gets smarter as network impression volume grows. So why not sign up today?

How did the Referral system change?

Well for starters you will now earn more money when you refer someone to the program. It used to be that you earned 5% off your referred publisher. You now can get 15% of commissions earned by your referrals! Nice little increase , no?

You earn a 15 percent referral fee based on the commissions earned by the publishers you refer.
You receive this 15 percent for the full 12 months after the new member joins.
Payouts to you are monthly, along with your commission payment.

So if you are already a member of WidgetBucks then perhaps now is a time to cheer or to concentrate more on this money making program. If you are a blogger or webmaster and are still pondering whether or not to give WidgetBucks a try, then certainly these new upgrades must wet your appetite. Give WidgetBucks a try, you just may like the results!

Display Blogger Widgets On Home Page Only

Normally , widgets in Blogger blogs are displayed on all the pages. For example, look at the google translate widget on my right side bar. That widget is displayed on each and every page of my blog. But what if you want to display the Blogger widget only on the home page? Well that is possible. You have to edit your Blogger template with the following code.

Go into your dashboard and download your template just in case you make mistakes so you can backup your blogger blog. Then expand the html and make the appropriate changes to your html.

Here for example is HTML2 the widget id for "Get posts by Email". There may be different ids for different widgets as this is only an example of what could be there. The code you will be adding to fix your widget only to the home page will look like <b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>

<b:widget id='HTML2' locked='false' title='Get Posts By Email' type='HTML'>
<b:includable id='main'>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>

<b:if cond='data:title != ""'>
<h2 class='title'><data:title/></h2>
</b:if>
<div class='widget-content'>
<data:content/>
</div>
</b:if>
<b:include name='quickedit'/>
</b:includable>
</b:widget>

You want to add the code that is highlighted in blue.
To recap:

Open your Blogger templates Layout and then Edit HTML, Click on expand widget templates .
With Ctrl+F search for each widget with its ids or given label/name.
Now paste the code in blue as specified above and save your template. The edited Blogger widget will now only appear on the homepage .

How to display the widget on every page except home page?

You can display a Blogger widget on all of your pages except the home page, by altering the above code in blue with this new code.

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>

How to display the widget on a specific post page?

You can also display a Blogger widget only on a specific post page only, by changing the first code with the following code .

<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "blog post URL"'>

So there you have it! You now have the ability to control how widgets are shown on your Blogger blog.

I know many of you know I am willing to trade links with others in similar niches or who have written similar content etc. I have also decided to add a most recent 5 list on the front page (Which carries the most PR for Blog Me The Money)to share the link love. So if you wish to trade deep links within posts feel free to contact me, or if you have recently linked to any of my pages or homepage, just let me know. Then I can add you to the most recent 5.

The anchor text I prefer I listed on the main page with the most recent 5, although if you contact me i can suggest other anchor text as well. Let me know which anchor text you would like as well, and the url.
