Monetizing MGID Traffic or When Will I Get Paid?
Some pro bloggers want to monetize their blogs in any way. It sounds reasonable because professional blogging is like a full time job as a publisher or journalist. It could take even more time and can be count as private entrepreneurship. And it's more than usual to get paid for your job.
The money question is getting more urgent when bloggers are asked to put MGID's widget on their blogs. Everything that takes additional place on website should be profitable somehow.
The answer is simple: by putting MGID's widget on website you will instantly get more traffic and this traffic can be monetized through usual internet ads.
In one of our previous articles we're talked about internet advertising. You can check it out here for more information.
How To Get More Out Of MGID (Part 6)
Using MGID Flexible Widget (With installation mini-manual)
The flexible widget is a simple original widget which is stretching through your sidebar to the bottom (or in a desirable range), automaticly adding required amounts of news to fill all available space.
Let's sum up some advantages of the MGID Flexible widget:
- unlimited number of news articles shown (limited only by the height of your page space)
- feeds the space which is vacant but potentially useful
- vast variety of news categories that could be shown simultaneously because of the news quantity
- flexible adjustment next to family-friendly content and designed like an original web-page.
Hot to install the Flexible Widget?
Once you request MGID News Flexible widget you will be provided with the widget code, which contains the script itself, and the stretching tag.
To install the Flexible widget you should insert the main part of the code wherever the widget starts. Nine times out of ten this place is the end of the sidebar area/column section.
The other part - the stretching tag - should be put wherever one wants the widget should be ended. Generally its the footer area or just the bottom of the page.
Main part of the code:
<!-- MGID News Widget Start --> <div id="MarketGid****"><center> <a href="http://mgid.com/" target="_blank">Loading...</a> </center></div> <script type="text/javascript"> var MarketGidDate = new Date(); document.write('<scr'+'ipt type="text/javascript" ' +'src="http://jsn.dt07.net/t/o/*****.net.****.js?t='+MarketGidDate.getYear()+MarketGidDate.getMonth() + '" charset="utf-8" ></scr'+'ipt>'); </script> <!-- MGID News Widget End -->
Stretching tag:
<span id="MGDW6437"></span>
To see how Flexible Widget looks like on website check out this Example
Unlike the simple vertical widget (which is actually limited) this type of widget spans practically the whole free space in the section where it is placed. This allows you to get more page views, clicks and visitors respectively.
iPhone 4 Unlocked And Already At The Apple Stores
As TGdaily informs us, fans of Apple can now get the unlocked version of iPhone 4 at Apple's Company Stores.
"Apple has decided to make the device available at its own retail store locations, in addition to the models that are locked into service agreements with AT&T and Verizon."
But this proposition is only available for those who can give away a surprising $650 for the 16 GB version, or a whopping $750 for the 32 GB version.
"The unlocked version of the iPhone 4 can only run on networks powered by GSM technology, which means in the US, only carriers AT&T and T-Mobile are compatible."
So, this version can fully satisfy only customers outside the US or those who travel a lot overseas.

Advantages of MGID's News Pop-Under.
In this article we will highlight another good way to get more out of MGID. It's the news pop-under. Why is it good for your web-site?
First of all, it increases traffic to your site. This way, you don't have to find a place to advertise a banner on your homepage that could interfere with your layout and style. MGID's Pop-Under doesn't impede your visitors in any way from viewing your site because it is beneath the page they are reading.
The News Pop-Under is imperceptible to the user because it remains under any currently open windows on the computer. It is seen when the user closes all his other windows when his current work is finished.
The Pop-Under will only open one time per unique user per day. The best part is, you can choose the kind of news that is shown according to the needs of your audience, and traffic to your site will increase 150%-200%!
Example. View the News Pop-Under here.
Why should you use MGID's new pop-under? Check out the advantages:
- It can be fully customized.
Our designers will create the pop-under banner to reflect the unique style of your website, so visitors don't feel like they are seeing just another add.
- A wide range of settings.
You can choose categories and even capping (or how often it will be shown to the one unique visitor - the frequency of pop-under)
- It will always open in new window.
So it won't annoy readers and interrupt them from viewing your site.
- It doesn't take place on your website.
It's useful when you have a lack of free space on your website.
- Increases your-readership
Compared with widgets, pop-under has 5 times higher CTR (click-through rate), which means more traffic and new readers
- Pop-under can be placed on your website's hosting.
So all pop-under views will be counted in stats as page views of your site.
To order a pop-under just fill out this application form.
Stay tuned for more guides, and contact us if you have any questions!
How To Get More Out Of MGID (Part 4)
Widget placement.
There are three best places to put the MGID widget on your website:
1. Below the Header
2. Sidebar (top)
3. Below the post on every inner page
You can see some illustrations here.
Past experience of bloggers & publishers has shown that these three spots are the best in terms of getting more traffic. Widgets placed in the above-mentioned areas will usually be noticed by a reader; this is getting our system to work to it's maximum for you!
And keep in mind: never use widget code twice on the same page. It can cause bugs or even failure of the widget. For example: if you already have putted one code at the top of the page, you need to get another widget code for the bottom of this page.
