Make money online by saying Bye Bye Spottt
May 15th, 2008 by the noob
What a terrible widget. This thing does nothing but slow down my load time. It sent me a whopping 24 hits in the last two months. Bye bye Spottt! I’ve replaced that valuable sidebar ad space with my noob ad. Maybe now i can make more money online.

Wow, it must be bad if putting your own ad on your own site is more profitable!

I too did the same thing the other day. It was just cluttering up my sidebar. Spott’s website said i was getting hits from it but my gostats counter doesn’t lie! I did a whole redesign overhaul and i think my “adverise here” boxes look much nicer than the spottt box!

cool, I don’t even know what Spott is, but sometimes you’ve got to do that. I’ve gotten rid of a few widgets in my days lol

I’m normally all over these things when they come out - glad I took a pass on that one.

benbarden- haha, yeah. it’s terrible. you would think that a widget developed by the adbrite guys would be good. nope. it’s much like blogrush. heavily funded pieces of shit.
yuwie money- huh? spam….how’d u get passed akismet?
chelle- phantom hits. i’m for trying things out. spottt just didn’t make the cut.
normal joe- yeah, most widgets are useless anyhow, and it slows down load time.
canucklehead- im for trying things out, but i guess it’s good to learn from others. wish someone i trusted told me about how worthless spottt was. too bad i don’t trust any of the make money online bloggers out there.

I just added spottt in hopes it would do as well as Entrecard. Sigh
Thanks for letting me know

[…] little 125×125 pixel ads became the norm, but it definitely is. Look around you. Entrecard, spott, and projectwonderful all use these ads to push their service. Big name blogs like techcrunch make […]

robin- It’ll get you a couple of clicks. but don’t expect much. I thought it was going to be a cool widget that bring in good traffic. If it did what it was suppose to, i would keep it up. I guess it doesn’t work because there’s no incentive to click thru. Entrecard gives you credits at least. and since it helps bring in traffic, people want to rack up the credits to buy ads. Spottt does nothing. It’s just as bad as blogrush.
