I was intending to ask this question earlier in the week when I added the ScratchBack Widget to the blog here. I personally think the widget is a good thing. From the White Hat SEO perspective, it’s not like anybody is buying a permanent text link to stimulate Google’s precocious search engine spider (that is known to crawl into places it wasn’t invited) but it’s a genuine, “Buy a Cheap Ad” on my site solution.
Unfortunately, I signed up to ScratchBack using my Gmail address because I wasn’t sure they weren’t just another internet blogger tool harvesting email addresses of bloggers, and like a true marketer, I missed my first person who tipped me because I didn’t check my Gmail account for a few days.
I want to say thank you to Web Hosting Pros for the first cookie in the cookie jar. Every dollar counts and for $3.00 USD, they’ve got my top spot. I think that’s a pretty good advertising vehicle for a few dollars in Paypal.
The way I discovered ScratchBack was from leaving a tip on another bloggers site…

For me, it didn’t earned even a dollar…
The only thing I don’t like about ScratchBack is that you have to wait until $25 minimum to get paid. For me, that’s going to take at least 9 links scratching my back. I’d much rather prefer it if the donations went directly to my Paypal instead of taking the detour.
I have a few programming jobs at the top of my priority list but when I get a chance I’m going to code a Wordpress plugin/hack that’s more flexible than ScratchBack and allows you to directly accept Paypal.
Creating a Word Press plugin as an alternative to Scratch Back is a great idea…
:) great blog site I just signed up for paperjam hopefully I’ll get accepted soon. I’ll keep reading for ways to make money for newbies.
Hum…many programs make you wait to get paid. I think some even offer a sign up bonus to entice you to join, but reality is that many will never reach that limit.
Good luck my friend,
