Try ScratchBack and get rewarded for your effort
On my blog, I have installed a ScratchBack widget. What is this Scratch Back widget about? According to Jim Kukral, the founder, it is actually meant for readers to reward blog owners for their effort in providing interesting and informative content.
In Jim own words, “scratch back is an online “tipping” system (or as we like to call it, a fancy-schmancy tip jar). It allows you, the blogger, to accept tips and “give back” links* or images* in return on your blog.”
Scratchback is a great way for readers to expose their own website or blog to more traffic. As a reader, by tipping the site owner, you are also buying a spot on the ScratchBack widget. Thus, you are showing your support for the site owner and at the same time driving potential traffic to your own site. This is killing two birds with one stone.
Another unique feature about ScratchBack is there is an auto-bumping. Looking from the perspective of a website owner, auto-bump means that every time somebody new tips you, that person moves to the top of the TopSpot list.
Example: If you have 10 TopSpots available, and Reader A is in the #1 spot, and Reader B tips you after Reader A, then Reader B moves into the top spot, pushing Reader A one spot down. This also means that eventually, Reader A will be pushed off the list completely.
If you do not want the auto-bump feature, you can replace TopSpot with a time limit of 24-hour, 7-day or 30-day listing.
The minimum price of a TopSpot that you can set is $1. I would suggest you set your pricing for tips based on your own perceived value of your website or blog. However, should anyone purchase a TopSpot, a percentage of your reward will be channelled to Scratch back administration and Paypal.
By setting the price low, ScratchBack can act as a entertaining and interactive gadget for your readers, Alternatively, if you were to set a premium price, you could earn some extra income. It all depends on how you use it.
When you sign up for a ScratchBack account, you will be ask to setup your own ScratchBack widget. The process is fairly simple and quick. So grab your ScratchBack now.
